In yet another record-breaking year, we received 49 project submissions for Character Art across both Search For A Star & Sumo Digital Rising Star!

The standard of quality also reached a new high, with excellent & inventive characters created across both tiers, including Beccy Collins’ Overwatch-inspired JetPack Cat, Pearse McKenna’s Alien Explorer, Madelaine Kendall-Murray’s sinister Jester & Weronika Walczak’s little Witch!

It’s been a huge task to assess and give feedback on all of this year’s projects, and we massively appreciate the work of our assessment team in creating a shortlist for the finals!

In total, 49 students submitted character art projects across a range of themes and styles, with 25 in the Search For A Star tier and 24 in Sumo Digital Rising Star.
