Game art contests are fairly common, but they seldom have rewards like the Little King’s Story art contest. The art contest for the Marvelous Entertainment and XSeed Wii game will have 100 winners, and the winning pieces of art will appear in the game, which will be released Q4 2008.

See, the contest asks people to draw an Unidentified Mysterious Animal (UMA). The best one will be created as an exclusive character for the NA release of the game, and the other pictures will appear in the game’s art museum as masterpieces. The contest ends August 1, 2008, so start drawing.

The official Little King’s Story website has all of the contest information. The images can be sent in via email or standard mail, and must also include some additional information:

Name of your UMA
Your name
Your age
Your address
Your phone number
Your e-mail address
Name that you wish to appear with the illustration (real name or pen name)

It seems like kind of a cool contest idea. It’d be nice if there was a little more than eternal preservation of the winning entrants’ characters though. At the very least, the grand prize winner should also receive a copy of the game, or at least a t-shirt with his/her character on it.
