The 48 Hour Draft Challenge Starts Tomorrow!
Keep your eyes peeled for our official post inaugurating the 2019 48 Draft Challenge! Until then, here are a few details to break down the event and get you started. WHAT is this? For two days, we’ll be accepting submissions for angsty Kent-centric headcanons. What constitutes as angsty? Really anything that can kick people right in the feels for our favorite character, Kent. (So if your OTP is Kent/Happiness, this event is for you too!) The submission process is short, simple, and won’t take more than a minute of your time. WHO can participate? Anyone who appreciates Kent and wants to see more Kent-centric hc’s in the world! WHERE is this happening? Right here on the KPBB blog! WHEN is this taking place? Friday June 21st @ 1pm EST until Sunday June 23rd at @ 1pm EST
HOW can I participate? We’ll be rolling out our official start post tomorrow that will include a link to our submission form (google form). Just follow the directions on the form and give us your best headcanons. Multiple submissions are allowed and encouraged! WHY are you doing this/WHY should I participate? This event was created last year as a part of @pimmsweek to create a low stakes opportunity for people to a) commemorate the 2009 Draft in the Check Please Universe b) celebrate angst (and also, Kent Parson). So you SHOULD participate if you want an easy way to contribute angst to this fandom, but if that doesn’t entice you please consider THE FABULOUS PRIZES!
We have commissioned 2 guest artists to turn their favorite submissions from this year’s challenge into illustrations. First prize will receive an illustration from @teluete! Samples of Teluete’s works can be found here. Second prize will receive an illustration from @omgpieplease! Samples of Omgpieplease’s works can be found here. Here are examples of last year’s first and second prize-works to get you inspired and motivated. That’s not all, however. This year we’ll also be aggregating honorable mentions into compilation posts. So even if your hc isn’t turned into artwork, there’s a good chance it’ll be featured on our blog leading up the reveal of this year’s birthday bash works. That’s everything for now! Keep your eyes peeled for our post tomorrow and remember to reblog this post and share it with your friends/followers/enemies/anyone you think would want to see cool Kent works.
