Description UPDATE 10/12 - The results are in! Check them out here !

UPDATE 10/11 - And submissions are now officially closed! Thanks to everyone who participated! I'll be spending the rest of the evening assembling the book, but in the meantime, please check the list below for your username/handle to ensure it is the handle you want to have credited in the book, and that it is spelled correctly. If something needs to be edited, shoot me a PM ASAP, and if you don't see your name on the list but you made a piece, be sure to get it to me as quick as possible so it can still be included!

UPDATE 10/10 - A few hours remain for any last-minute submissions! There is a bit of wiggle room for the cut off since I won't be assembling the book until tomorrow afternoon, but the longer you wait after the listed cut off, the less likely your piece can be featured in the print run (if it's any consolation, I would still be happy to give folks who just barely miss the official cut off the free PDF copy anyway). I'll be updating this post when submissions officially close. A huge thanks again to everyone who has participated so far! (And if I've missed your submission in the gallery , feel free to let me know in the comments or via PM!)

UPDATE 10/3
 - One week remains for submissions!

UPDATE 9/26 - Just a reminder that two weeks remain for submissions! (Also just wanted to show off the gallery for submissions so far, y'all are so talented and have such nice art!! 😭)

I'm happy to announce that OBT's first book, On Borrowed Time: Born Yesterday has been completed, as of last night! I'm really excited to have made it this far with the comic- and even more so that I finally surpassed where I ended OBT's preboot! I'll post more details about the book once we're closer to printing (around mid-October), but the book currently spans the prologue of the comic through the end of Chapter 6- which will finish posting publicly in December! I also have compiled an extra art section, concept art, and some fun author notes and trivia in the end of the book, which I hope you all will enjoy when the book comes out. The book will have both a physical version and a digital PDF version! I've been amazed at the following OBT has garnered over the years- what started out as a silly little fan project to pass the time in high school really became a passion throughout college and now through my career, and it feels so special having been able to connect with so many fantastic people with this project. To celebrate the amazing community of fans and readers, I wanted to include a fan art feature in the physical and digital copies of the book! The Fan Art Feature will be a little gallery in the back of the book, with a compilation of art submitted by readers! Due to physical limitations surrounding printing, the canvas size for all submissions will have to be a bit rigid, but I hope that the other rules implemented provide a bit more freedom! The top 10 submissions (judged by yours truly) will receive full-page features, and all other submissions will be featured on a 4x4 grid with other submissions. The top 3 submissions will get the prizes listed below, and all submissions will receive a digital version of Born Yesterday! (This means that anyone who submits a piece to the Fan Art Feature will be able to read the end of Chapter 6 about 2 months before it goes out publicly!) Submissions will be accepted until 11:59 PM PST, October 10th 2022. Digital prizes will be distributed October 12th, which is also when the digital PDF of the book will become available and physical copies will be ordered. Read on to the rules below!Rules - All submissions must be 1375 x 2100 pixels, or any larger variation of that ratio (such as 2750 x 4200 px). Having the correct scale for your piece is the most important part of the fan art feature, since it determines whether or not your piece can be printed! Pieces that don't follow this layout will be ineligible for the fan art feature (but will still be loved and appreciated by me <3) - It is also highly recommended that the DPI (dots per inch) of the piece is set to 300 for optimal printing with the physical copy. There are tutorials online if you need help figuring out where this setting is in your program! (Pieces that don't follow this will not be excluded from the fan art feature, but they may appear blurry in printing.)- OR... Short written and prose submissions can also be accepted! Written submissions must be between 100 and 450 words (with maybe some wiggle room a few words below or above that) to be eligible for physical printing. Submissions of up to 1000 words are eligible for inclusion in the digital version of the book.- OR... Traditional art or pictures of crafts (like sculpture or knitting) are also accepted! Just make sure the cropping of scans/pictures taken of the art adheres to the guidelines above. - Art must include any of OBT's characters and/or locations in order to be eligible! - Art may include your own characters, or characters from other comics with the express permission of their respective artists. Design alterations and species swapping (including gijinka/human forms) is also okay! - Art may not include themes of: Gore, NSFW themes (such as sexual content or niche/kink), romantic implications of adult and minor characters (characters such as Inigo and Malachi are minors- Rune, Dielle, Yohann, and most NPCs are adults), or hate speech.- It is recommended that pieces have a background! Any pieces that have a transparent background will be given a simple color background in the print version made by yours truly.- It's totally fine to submit previously made fan art! To be eligible, pre-existing fan art must be reconfigured to the standards above. - Multiple submissions is also fine, but only one submission per person will be eligible for a full-page feature. All other submissions will go into the 4x4 grid format. Maximum of 3 submissions per person. - By participating you confirm that you are of 18 years of age or otherwise have permission from parents or guardians to participate in the contest. Written consent of parents or guardians is required for winners of physical prizes to receive their prizes in the mail.- Winners will be selected based on creativity and effort, rather than quality of art! - Winners will be DM'd with details on how to receive their prizes, including any forms related to receiving packages for participants under 18. Prizes can be shipped internationally, and I will cover any shipping fees!- 10 participants will be selected to have full-page features in the book! All other participants will share a page in a 4x4 format with other participants. Written submissions not selected for full-page features will have a quote selected to fit within these grids for the physical prints, with their full version being featured in the digital copy.- Art featured in the Fan Art Feature will have, by default, your username as credit. If you would like to use a different art handle, be sure to mention it in the description of any submissions!Please mention my account in all submissions to ensure I see them, or post a link to them in the comment section below!
