| Theme of The Month: Nov 2026 is "Circus of Wonders" |
The Character Design Challenge is a community open to any artists who want to create and share their own unique design of a chosen theme every month. The CD Challenge was created by a group of artists living in Dublin, Ireland, in January 2015.
How does it work?
Every month the Character Design Challenge present a new challenge where artists can submit their unique interpretation of a chosen theme. You can check out the rules here.
How many artworks can you submit?
One single artwork (a single pose of a character in any medium. A sketch is fine).
How is the winner chosen?
Three winners are chosen by the CD Challenge judges every month and their works are shared on their Facebook and Pinterest pages. This means that they reach a potential audience of half a million artists.
Is the CD Challenge on Facebook?
