Celsys have launched a new illustration contest offering cash and other prizes for artists submitting their work themed around "cats". All you need to do is post your work online on Instagram, X or Facebook by January 5th using the hashtag #cspcontest46.

The grand prize for the contest is US$2,000 and a three-year license for the illustration, comic, webtoon, and animation app Clip Studio Paint EX. The runner up prize is US$500 and a three-year license for Clip Studio Paint EX.

Participants can also join a lottery award for a one-year license for Clip Studio Paint PRO by posting timelapse videos of their illustration. This prize encourages artists of all levels to participate. The smartphone prize awards Clip Studio Paint by lottery for illustrations drawn using a smartphone painting app.

By holding this contest, Celsys aims to support creators worldwide and encourage more artists to create illustrations. The previous contest saw 2,899 stunning illustration entries, and Celsys is looking forward to even more unique illustrations with the “Cats” theme.
