✨ NIMAVERSE Worldbuilding Contest! ✨

Hey guys! To encourage everyone to follow along as we create our world during the new NIMAVERSE update, I'm excited to announce our Worldbuilding Contest! You'll have the next 8-9 months to learn all the tools and skillsets needed to create your own world. Here's what we're looking for:

Please note you cannot submit artwork that was previously made, but you can use your existing characters and story! No fanart is allowed as well. We want to see your original concepts! I'll be judging the contest along with my team and some special guest artists. Winners will receive:

Although the cash prize is more of an incentive, the real prize will be creating your own world and having a fully-equipped portfolio. Let this project be the key to your dream school/job! 

The deadline will be around the time we finish NIMAVERSE (end of this year), more details will be announced then! I can't wait to see what you all come up with!

How can I participate

The Human Cartoon

is there a way to get the pack from the begining?

maria escalera

Are these still available?😭😭

New member as of today, huge fan as of a few months ago! This contest has me over the moon, it’s everything I’ve been looking for! My entire life, I’ve been drawing and painting. My mother is an amazing artist and teacher, she’d give me little projects and lessons to work on everyday (still does 24 years later lol) Last year I made a life changing decision to officially take the leap of faith and leave behind the life of an engineer I was on track for and pursue my degree in illustration and media arts. Which means I had (and still have) A LOT of lost drawing time and practice to make up for. Your videos and tips helped me to realize that even though I was rusty I still understood the basic principals and could bounce back with an artistic vengeance! I’m graduating at the end of this year and moving to California to tackle the next step of my journey. BUT AM MISSING A CRAZY AWESOME PORTFOLIO. Thank you guys for turning a swift kick in the pants I needed into a fun and awesome contest. I can’t wait to get to work and join in on the fun!

I can't wait to enter!

The full tutorial + process video is included in Eclipse Tier and up! -Mindy

Does every tier get the worldbuilding/ portfolio making process ?

I’m going to patreonise you and I’ll try to get involved as much as my other work allows

James O'Reilly

Hey Mikaela, No worries! You can join at a later date, it's all good as long as you can follow along for most of the update. That way we can go over the worldbuilding process together~ -Mindy

Definitely doing it!!

HP Parker

Hi!! I can't afford a Patreon subscription at the moment but when I'm able to, could I join the contest at a later date??

Traditional submissions are welcome as well! Just be sure to scan them and put everything together to create a legible layout (we'll go over this in the later Hideout NIMAVERSE Episodes!) -Mindy

Is this only for digital artists

DoeJoeKid

The deadline is towards the end of the year, more information will be out soon! -Mindy

omg just joined and this is so cool

Does it have a schedule

Aaaah this sounds awesome!! Would be cool if there was a hashtag everyone could use as they slowly build up their world's 😂

ahh! i'm so excited about this and about nima and ahh thank you for giving us something to do and look forward to :)

It's for Patrons at all Tiers! We do recommend getting some Hideout videos (available through Eclipse Tier and up) here and there though, as we'll be going over the worldbuilding/portfolio making process there. -Mindy

Plenty of stories are inspired by others! Just make it your own, as long as it's original work and not fanart/a direct copy of another IP you're good. c: -Mindy

We'll be going over the worldbuilding/portfolio making process in the Hideout videos (they're available through Eclipse Tier and up)! -Mindy

As long as you're a Patron for most of the NIMAVERSE update, you're eligible to participate! :) -Mindy

As long as you're a Patreon for most of the NIMAVERSE update, you're good to go! We do recommend checking out some of the Hideout videos (available through Eclipse Tier) though as we'll be going over the worldbuilding/portfolio making process. -Mindy

Yes! Just be sure to scan everything and put it into a cohesive layout (we'll be going over this during our NIMAVERSE update). -Mindy

If your story involves more than 2 characters, great! But we're only looking for 2 so you can submit two of your strongest/best designs. c: -Mindy

You'll have to be a Patreon for most of the NIMAVERSE update as we'll be going over the worldbuilding/portfolio making process! -Mindy

I can't wait to start this! * w * so exciting! Finally I have some motivation to develop my story! ^^

This sounds amazing! I know it says Patreon exclusive, does this mean you have to join a particular tier? Or is it for any Patreon follower?

The story I'm thinking about is inspired by a fairy tale. Does this qualify? ☺️

Yoharu.Art

This is insanely good practice for me and crafting my portfolio

I'm new here , if I want to be in this , where should I start ? design my characters ? where are the others now in this journey ? :]

Anyone can join? 😳

Ross, oh my goodness. You spoil us so much. This is gonna be so much fun to do. I really need something else to put all my energy into over the next coming months.

Sera Lou

Uwaaaaa very exciting!!!! Cant wait for the class to start!!

Wow! I am so nervous and excited. Now I just need to think up some great ideas! XD

See, this is kind of the kick in the rear I need

SycrosD4

this is awesome! time to practice my skills for this 😍

I am very excited, can anyone participate even if I pay for the basic tier?

Kiki Revolver

Just what I was looking for to help kick start the creative gears. Can't wait to see what I come up with and looking forward to see everyone's creative processes.

That's exactly it! We'll be going over all the tools you'll need in the Hideout videos, so you can follow along and make progress with Ross and I~ c: -Mindy

So excited! I was actually already planning to do this anyways so this is awesome 💕

Omg this is such an awesome idea! And an awesome way to get motivated! I already have most of the story and the original characters, now the artsy work needs to be put in! 💪

mlara_artescape

That's so awesome! I'm supposed to create my own artbook for college so it will be a great opportunity to combine learning from you with school work <3

This is perfect. I've had a few ideas for characters and worlds I've wanted to flush out but wasn't sure where to start. Thank you for starting this journey!

PolkuCow (Josef)

Ahhh this sounds like so much fun! I've missed projects like this since I got out of school. Can't wait to get some of that structure back into my personal work.

Awesome, it can be in traditional art?

Super excited to be a part of this

This is great because I already have a story series I want to get out there with some light novels already written just need to expand on the universe now and also do the character concepts. I've been following the Masterclass and feel I've learned a lot. Can't wait to work with you during these months and get creating my universe.

A.J.

So your patreon rewards for the rest of the year (until contest deadline) will be regarding how to create our own universe/world? That is really exciting! Because I do want my own characters, story, etc but I don't know where to start.

I'm nervous but pretty excited for this

So quick question, (sorry if I’m bothering anyone) the story we create obviously will have more characters then 2 correct? (side and all) But, your just looking for 2 characters only?

Can I join even if I'm not a patreon yet? I don't have money ☹️

Ready when you are!! ✌🏾

Hmmm sounds good.

Tremaine Worrell

Sounds amazing! I always wanted to create my world! 😊
