Greetings from pixiv.
Thank you for using our service.
The pixiv High Schoolers Illustration Contest 2021 will start on July 31st, 2021 (Sat).
▼ What is the "pixiv High Schoolers Illustration Contest 2021"?
This is Japan's largest digital illustration contest that allows any high school student (*) to participate!
* You must be enrolled in a high school or equivalent at the time of submission, or otherwise be between the ages of 15 and 18.
The theme for the 4th annual edition is "dance". Four well-established illustrators and eight corporate sponsors are lending their support as judges in this contest, so entries will have the chance to receive professional critique. In addition to the prize money and special items provided by each corporate sponsor, there are also chances for works (and their creators) to participate in additional pixiv projects and visual productions.
Additionally, this year's pixiv High Schoolers Illustration Contest will have an online crash course! Three professional illustrators also serving as judges (Amelicart, Naoki Saito, and Seiji Yoshida) will analyze the contest's theme of "dance" and then give tips and tricks on how to work the theme into your entry.
Please refer to the Application Guidelines on the contest page to learn how to submit your work(s).
We look forward to seeing everyone's wonderful entries.
