Besides that, We decided to highlight several more amazing artworks, that unfortunately didn’t make it to top20, but are very stunning & deserve some attention:

- @notapes - art
- @exlot - art
- @yotsubagoharu - art
- @Liteelon - art

Please also reach out to us!

P.S.(i) we had technical difficulties while voting, and it took us a little while to sort it out, for which we want to apologize to all the participants. (ii) If your artwork wasn’t shown on the show it doesn’t necessarily mean that it was not included in the competition. (iii) we’ve strived to achieve transparency each step of the way, and want to remind everyone that the final score is based on 4 judges scoring the art, not only ONE.

There were a few more flaws that we identified while running this initiative, and will be focusing on adjusting the process, to make it even more transparent & smooth for all the participants next time.

Prizes will be distributed to the winners within the next 5 days, please make sure to reach out to us directly via X profile where your art was submitted, with your Telegram @ in the message.

As for those who submit the art via Telegram – we already have your Usernames, Thank you everyone for participating!
