Undead Art!

Can YOU Draw the Walking Dead?

In Ty Drago's upcoming tween thriller THE UNDERTAKERS: RISE OF THE CORPSES, twelve-year-old Will Ritter battles an invasion of animated Corpses that only he and his friends can see.  Corpses hide in plain sight and can be disguised as anyone: teachers, doctors, policemen ... anyone at all.

Sourcebooks Jabberwocky and Ty Drago are announcing a drawing contest for anyone aged 8 to 17.  The rules are simple: draw in black and white OR color, a rotting cadaver pretending to be a normal person.  No rags on these dead guys.  Suits.  Uniforms.  Swim trunks.  Hoodies.  Let your imagination soar!  The grosser and scarier, the better!

The winner will receive a signed Advanced Reading Copy of THE UNDERTAKERS: RISE OF THE CORPSES.  He or she will also have her winning drawing displayed on the front page of the UNDERTAKERS website (www.jointheundertakers.com).  

Contest runs from March 1 through March 31, 2011.

Here are the details:

TO ENTER:

  • You must be 8-17 years old
  • You must love "zombies" and want to draw them
  • You must submit an original drawing (either created on your computer or scanned in) by uploading it into a comment on this forum
  • Max size should be 600 by 800 pixels
  • Entries cost nothing!  Only one entry per artist please!
  • All entries MUST be submitted by 11:59 pm on March 31, 2011

 

Please tell all your artistic friends about this contest via twitter, facebook and any other social media!
