5 WINNERS!
In order to encourage participation, there will be 5 total winners for this contest! This way more artists can have a chance at winning the prizes. Of course we will have a category for the best overall artwork, however there will be other categories that one can not simply win by having the “best” art skills.
Winner Categories
1. Best Overall Artwork
Several members from the TinyWars artwork team will judge the submissions and select the one that contains the best overall display of artistic ability and skill. There will only be one (1) winner in this category.
2. Best Fit for the “Tiny” Theme
TinyWars isn’t just about cute girls, but cute girls who are tiny! Artwork which integrates with the theme of “tiny” and successfully shows an understanding of the core themes of TinyWars will be eligible for this category. There will only be two (2) winners from this category.
3. Most Unique Style
A submission which demonstrates a clear use of unique style, from hand drawn artwork to a stylistic approach, not all fan arts need to be “anime style.” A submission that clearly demonstrates stylistic mastery will be eligible for this category. There will only be one (1) winner from this category.
4. Creators Pick
The creator of TinyWars will personally view and select a submission that has not been chosen in the previous categories as the fifth and final winner. There will only be one (1) winner from this category.

Kim References
Character Description: Kim is a fire witch who uses a secret magic to produce fire attacks. Her wand is composed of what appears to be a ladybug attached to a hairpin, attached to a match stick. It seems as if whenever the ladybug flaps its wings, the match begins it ignite a powerful flame. Kim is a powerful, mischievous, and stunning witch. Her age is estimated to be between 16 – 18 years old.
Amy References
Character Description: Amy is one of two sisters who live in the Candy Castle (Pictured below). She is a fun loving girl who has a lot to learn about the world, but her outlook is positive and happy. Her age is estimated anywhere between 14 – 16.
About the Candy Kingdom: The Candy Castle or Kingdom is a large (~2 feet) sand castle found new the ocean (pond). The servants of the Candy Castle are ants who gather candy from distant lands and hoard it in the candy castle candy room. The Kingdom sells these candies through the tiny world and produces its own candies in the castle.
Mary References
Character Description: Mary is the main character of TinyWars, she is the most important character in the game! Her story is a bit mysterious, however what we do know is that she is the leader of the group and she is very bossy. Sometimes she gets angry easily and can throw tempter tantrums, however for the most part she is very confident that she can take on the world, both tiny and the big world! Her age is estimated to be 16 years old.
Old Sister References
Character Description: Old Sister lives in the Candy Castle with her little sister, Amy. She is often seen sleeping and lazing around while her little sister does all the work. She even gets the ants to bring things to her because she’s so lazy! Her age is estimated to be between 19 – 21 years old. She is in charge of defenses at the Candy Castle and operates a gumball canon. Why does this character not have a name? Because naming characters is really hard and she is not exactly a “main” character in this story.
Suzu References
Character Description: Suzu is the oldest girl in the group. She is Mary’s guardian and sometimes acts as a motherly figure for all the girls. She is the most mature one in the group. Her melee attacks are very powerful! Her age is estimated to be between 23 – 26.
Kumo References
Character Description: Kumo is a mysterious potion maker who is found inside the walls of the House World (pictured below). Her button eye patch and her love for spiders makes her an interesting girl. However her years of living in seclusion in the House World has caused her to become an incredibly awkward girl. She is clumsy at times, socially awkward and shy, but once she gets in the mode to make potions, her true personality comes out.
Eve References
Character Description: Trouble maker.
