I could place this in the Music Forum, or most definitely one of the Art Forums, but I thought I'd place this in the Rumble Strip, as I'm unsure of whether to post an external competition in the Artistic Competitions or not.

MEGADETH Fans Invited To Redesign Band Mascot VIC RATTLEHEAD - Jan. 16, 2006
After two decades of rocking, the heavy metal band MEGADETH's mascot Vic Rattlehead needs a facelift and the band has commissioned the world's largest online artistic community, deviantART, to redesign him. In addition to having the chance to redesign a mascot whose image has appeared on several MEGADETH albums as well as a myriad of band merchandise, the fans can also win the biggest prizes that have ever been offered for a deviantART contest. The prizes include three Dave Mustaine signature series electric guitars:

First prize: LTD AXXION (photo)
Second prize: LTD DV8-R (photo)
Third prize: LTD DV200 (photo)

Designs can be submitted at this location. More information is available by clicking here. Contest deadline is Tuesday, February 14 at 12:00 a.m. PST.

I'm sure there are quite a number of people here capable of a decent attempt at this, so have a shot! Just remember I told you this when you're looking at one of those guitars! :D
 
Oh yeah, just looked at that on devART just now. They sure are giving away lovely guitars...! Unfortunately I don't have the talent to take a shot at it :(
 
too bad I wouldn't be able to play them if I won them.

I wonder if I could ask for lefty guitars. They'd probably be worth more too.
 
...or a college education. If I won, though, I'd definitely keep ONE of them.

Winning thing contest could be one of the best things to happen to any artist. The exposure your work will get due to you winning would be tremendous.

I'm pretty much done with the base linework now. Now it's time to get serious.

Precisely. When other bands look for someone to do album covers (if they don't already know someone who can do the artwork), they'll look around at other bands' artwork and make some calls.

From something which gets a little publicity like this, you could be a top candidate. Have a crack at it.
 
Amazing guitars that i could add to my mini collection, unfortunately my drawing skills are lacking :guilty:.
 
I can draw fine and stuff...it's just the painting that scares me. That, and making it look as professional as possible. My stuff always has a dirty/tuff look to it.
