Contest: VOTE December 2025 Art Challenge -- Make it Seasonal -- Please Vote!

[Starscape]

Welcome to the voting thread for the 245th Trek BBS Fan Art Forum Challenge!


Our Festive Theme for December was "Make it Seasonal" and described as:

Make It Seasonal
Everything seems to sparkle a bit more at Christmas, doesn't it? Bedeck your Trek in tinsel, garland, red and green, mistletoe, holly and ivy, candy canes, popcorn chains, etc. Let your art shimmer like a star. Or create something wintery with snow and ice that will have us reaching for a cup of raktajino just looking at it (if your local climate refuses to obey orders, cotton balls, construction paper, bits of glass, tinsel, etc), Let's see your frosty Ferengis, snowy starships, and icy IDICs.

It may be the final day of Christmas but we can extend our holiday celebrations just a little longer as we decide on our winner for December, who will be decorating their profile with the coveted golden “Fan Art Challenge Winner” badge and earn our utmost respect? Please pick your favourites from the three entries below.


Our festive entries:

@Firebird
Harry Kim's Christmas kiss on the Holodeck goes awry, thanks to Tom Paris.

@Smear-Gel
Mariner and her Elves.

@Starscape
A journey into an alternative dimension using an Eaglemoss model, a bag of tinsel, fairy lights and a touch of post-processing.

Thanks for voting!

Not sure where to put this, so I’m more or less randomly putting it here …

Some time soon I gotta update the list of past contests. Last one I added was way back in February!

Well, it took me a few months, but over the holidays I finally found time to update the long-running list of past contests. Everyone let me know if you spot a mistake.

For those who are keeping score: @Starscape (25 wins overall) is just one win away from catching up with me in the pole position. @B.J. (20 wins overall) had a phenomenal streak this past year, climbing up to the third position, leaving behind @Cyfa (19 wins overall) on fourth place. What’s cool is that with both @korblborp and @jerriecan we had two newcomers taking home wins in 2025. Keep at it, guys!
