Hey flea enthusiasts,

To celebrate the release of Silksong, and the community's triumphs in the Hollow Knight franchse, /r/HollowKnight is holding another art and creativity contest! (Click here to see winners from the last one!) Art does not have to be a drawing, it can be anything creative (think writing, crochet, 3D modeling, clay, lego, or whatever you can think of) as long as it's Hollow Knight related, original, and SFW.

You can enter the contest by posting your creative work any time between now and 22 November (you have 3 weeks!). Winners will be announced towards the end of November. Please try to upload all your art at once so it's easier for us to review; you can upload multiple images to Reddit and it will collect them into a gallery automatically.

Please use the 2025 Creativity Contest flair when you post or have the word "contest" in the title. You can post other art during this contest, but only your best art will be considered.

Who can win?

Mods will be picking 10 winners to receive a FanGamer (North America) gift card/gift code. We will look at the Execution, Originality, Style, and Fun of the art/creative work. This will give artists and creatives of different skill levels a chance at winning.

• There will be 10 winners chosen by the mods.
• No matter how many creative works you post, each person only gets 1 entry.
• Must be 13+ to win (or have permission of your parent/guardian)
• Please only post entries from your main account (no alts/multiple accounts!)
• If you already won during one of the giveaway contests you can still participate. :)

How to enter the contest:

1. Make something creative! (All art must be original! No tracing, copying other art, using game assets, off-topic images, cover songs using existing sheet music, etc.)
2. Upload all your art submissions in one post (if possible) to /r/HollowKnight (Reddit has a gallery feature that will put all your art in one gallery, unless it's music/video). But if you make more art later that's fine, but please keep as much of your art to one post as possible. If you have art that isn't a formal submission, you can also post it to /r/HollowKnightArt.
3. Use the 2025 Creativity Contest flair or put the word `contest` in the title when you post. All art/creative content using this flair and posted from 12 October - 22 November will be automatically entered.
4. Done! Winners will be announced sometime in late November.

Frequently Asked Questions:

I just posted art 10, 15, 30+ days ago, what do I do?

If you recently posted your art, we'll also include any posts since 12 October as official entries (if you posted on or before 12 October, you can repost it so we can find it again, that's totally fine, just be sure to use the right flair).

How do I know I entered the contest?

Be sure your post is flaired as 2025 Creativity Contest. You can always go back and edit your own post's flair if you forget. If you've checked your post and are still unsure, you can message the mods and we'll help you out. AutoMod might also post in your thread confirming that you were entered!

Can I cross-post original art I posted to another subreddit?

You may, but it's easier for us to see if you post to r/HollowKnight first, then crosspost to other subreddits (it's just a Reddit thing).

Can I submit lewd/NSFW art?

No. All art must be within the normal posting rules.

Prizes:

Winners will receive a US$50 FanGamer gift code for their North American store (FanGamer ships from the US worldwide). These can be used from any country, but shipping costs may be high to your location. Feel free to enter anyway and check the www.FanGamer.com (North America) website to see what shipping costs may be to your country. If you end up not being able to use the FanGamer US prize, we can find another winner.

Have fun and we look forward to seeing what everyone will create!
