Topic: [NEWS] Fan Art Contest: What If Boba Fett Is In "The Force Awakens"

Source: BFFC

Despite some rumors, Boba Fett isn't supposed to be in The Force Awakens. We like to hope he'll still make a surprise appearance, and to celebrate that, we made some fake The Force Awakens posters ourselves as if Boba Fett makes an appearance. Now, it's your turn. We want to see your fan art!

You can design a poster, take a photo, or draw a picture. Art can be digital or traditional. You have until December 18, 2015 at 11:59pm PST to send it to us -- see the entry form below -- in order to win a prize!

Awards

  • Most Creative
    This will be awarded to one artist for their best effort and concept (that may trump technical execution) with their fan art

  • Best in Show
    This will be awarded to one artist for superb craftsmanship and overall idea with their fan art

Prizes

We will award two sets of the forthcoming Star Wars Mandalorian Bookends by Gentle Giant ($60 value), one set to each winner.

Pointers and Examples

  • The Force Awakens takes place 30 years after Return of the Jedi

  • This timeline would make Boba Fett 66 years old

  • At least one Mandalorian symbol is clearly visible in the trailer for The Force Awakens

We made these to help promote the contest and help get some example ideas going for you:

We made The Force Awakens poster templates from the Kylo Ren and Han Solo versions of the latest posters, isolating the logo and release date lines. These are optional to use for your fan art and only made available to help:

As You Wish

That's it. You don't need to join our mailing list, like our social media, and you don't even need to live in the U.S. (prizes will be shipped worldwide at no cost to the winners). Pretty nice, huh?
