Winners Get New Sonic CD, Autographed Soundtrack
Sega’s community blog announced today a new contest, in which 50 prizes will be given away in each of the major regions Sega reaches out to. That’s 150 prizes amid the US & Canada, Europe, and Mexico.
All they’re looking for, according to the announcement, is your Sonic CD related fan art:
Fan art specifically pulled from your memories of Sonic CD, from anywhere in the game, showing off your favorite moment or the biggest moment. It’s your choice!
Five grand prize winners in each region will receive both a copy of the Christian Whitehead revised Sonic CD on either XBOX Live, Playstation Network, or Steam. They will also receive a copy of the new 20th anniversary Sonic CD soundtrack signed by several Sonic Team staff, including Takashi Iizuka and Jun Senoue. Forty five other first prize winners in each region just get the game of their choice.
There are rules, and you can read up more on them at the above link. The most interesting one of them all is that the contest is only open to those 13 and older, which may not necessarily be enough of a cutoff for those on the younger end of that range to know the finer intricacies of Sonic CD. The game was released in 1993, and only re-released to PC and the Sonic Gems Collection since.
The contest ends November 29th.

I’ve never played Sonic CD only played the original genesis titles back in 1995. So I guess I will take a picture of stardust speedway and draw it
There are some stupid insane talented artists in this fanbase, im excited to see the winner drawings
Finally my Talent can pay off.
I know about it from their blogs. I suck at drawing, but I will win!
P.S. good luck for all those who is my rivals. May the best Hedgehog win!
i doubt they will accept 3D fan art but ill do it just cause anyway.
Yes, some people 13 have played it before, I’d assume. I’m going to a sensitive topic, but there are some powerful Genesis emulators out there.

Tryn to steal OUR ART HUH
I’m really happy Sega is doing all of this promotion for Sonic CD. I personally really liked this Sonic game. The stage design was great, the variety was fantastic, the special stages were very cool, music was amazing, and there was a lot of attention paid to things like bosses. It is the perfect Sonic game. I played it on the gems collection and I kept on thinking to myself that it is such a shame not many people ever got their hands on this game. Well I am very happy that Sega is giving this game a second life.
Yeah, there are some amazing artists in the fanbase, just check Deviant Art (Hazard the Porgoyle comes to mind). So yeah, I may not win, but if there’s a microscopic chance of me winning anything signed by some of the members of Sonic Team, consider me in….
Good luck to everyone in the contest.
ORIOTO WINS ALREADY. I hope he enters it, it’s brilliant.

I want in on this…… +_+
Oh me wants!!!!! well XD I might not win but sounds like fun so I’ll enter. ^^
;-; I live in S. Asia.. not fair!
I’m not gonna win, i know, but it’d be fun to enter
Yeah, It says fan art, but can 3d cgi be considered as fan art? Thats the only art i feel i can do!
Okay, have I got this right? Europe=United Kingdom? Which means that I can’t enter cus I live in Sweden. ;( Is it so hard to have all fans in Europe to enter? ;( ;( ;(
Why can’t we have the option to edit a post? Anyway, what I ment to say was “Is it really that hard to look through all the entries from Europe?” I know it is, but I’ve seen contests being waaay bigger than this so it isn’t impossible.
HERE IS MINE!

Well, I dont think i’ll win because #1. part of it is 3D and might not be considered typical fan art, and #2. I sent in an email without the picture in it and sent the 2nd one with a picture. I bet im disqualified for ending 2. DARN!
Sorry for being off topic, but please tell me: WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR SITE THIS MORNING? Was it hacked? Why was the antivirus program giving me a threat warning? Why is nobody speaking about it? Am I missing something?

Argh, that’s not a lot of time to make one. I thought of something, but it may just take me like a whole month to do.
