I have a a question that I am sure will eventually be asked, so I'll just throw it out there without waiting:
Is "Fanart" permitted?
I get that copyrighted material is probably out of bounds, but is something like a character from a show like CriticalRole on twitch an acceptable choice of subject?
Good question, original art only!
Sci Fi or Fantasy... why not both? 
It isn't allowed by the rules, right?
That supercool, dont know if ill find the time to do this but definitely will keep and eye on this 
great idea
So do I have to create just a character concept or a full image with composition etc.?
Read the 2D submission requirements, all explained there 
This is super neat!
I've been procrastinating on getting involved with the Cubebrush forum, but this is a great place to start. Here's to everyone entering! May we all have the discipline and drive to follow through. =)
Quick Rules question: What are some of the specific guidelines on using concepts for 3D submissions? Can we use another artists complete concept? Just use others' works as reference/inspiration?
This is truly an ART WAR. You weren't kidding when you said it'd be nuts, @marc !
Super pumped. Looking forward to what you'll all come up with..!
I will be entering the 3D side for this contest and had a quick question for the final character. Can the Final 3D mesh be 3D print friendly? Meaning no UV or textures or does it have to aim more towards film and game models? Thanks for your time.

Hey! Pulled up the specifications from the 3D description for you. You can present your model in whichever manner you prefer! As long as the judges are able to see your final character and the progress/concept behind it, you're good to go! Good luck.
-
Dimensions: at least 2048x2048 pixels - format of your choice
This is THE image to display your character in all its glory. The character has to be 100% 3D, but the background can be whatever you prefer.
Embedded Marmoset Viewer
Use our new Marmoset embedded viewer to show off your character - this will be used for judging. The .mview file has a 20mb size limit.
OR
Detail Sheet
Dimensions: 2048x2048 pixels
-If you are not uploading your model using the Marmoset viewer, include this sheet in your final submission. This should include both the front and back of your character in a T-pose as well as close-ups of interesting details and areas we can't see well with the Final Image alone. Squeeze everything you have into this one sheet.
So excited for this @marc !! I havent participated in a contest since Retrogasm last year 
Could you post a list of the judges names? I recognize most of you from the pictures, but there's a few I'm not familiar with.
Read the 3D Submission Requirements - You have to create your own, it's part of your submission
Read the 3D Submission Requirements should be all there - the UVs are not part of the final submission hence you can do whatever you want. Your final model has to have textures however, be posed and be in its environment (that last part can be 2D)
What a way to jumpstart the new forum site! This is going to be fun.
Team Fantasy!
This is indeed a great thing to end the year. Thanks to @marc and the team 
I want to take part in the 3D Art War but I'm not good with concepts can I use Blizzard's WOW character concept for my inspiration.
Good Luck to all the entries
Cheers! The sketch sheet is part of the submission just as much as the final image so it has to be yours!
Where is the link to apply?
This is an amassing opportunity for me and others artist that want to show his talent and creativity.
And thanks Mark for belive on us the new artist.
