I was recently contacted by Art Star, a consortium of CG-related organisations like SIGGRAPH, XP-Pen, Artstation and more. The program offers support for a wide range of CG artists - please continue reading to find out more about this offer, and to learn how to apply.
Note: application closes by September 15!
This program aims to support CG hobbyists, CG professional content creators, and CG studios. As long as the applicants have CG dreams, no matter where and who they are, they have a chance to achieve their goals and take part in this activity.
What you will get

- Equipment: Program partners will provide applicants with pen displays or pen tablets to improve their skills and abilities.
- Traffic: Art Star and partners will help amplify artist art and social media accounts.

- Software: If applicants pass the evaluation, they can get the corresponding CG software support provided by the program partners.
How to apply
You will need to provide information about yourself and the project that you need support for; you can find all the required information on the Art Star page.

Full disclosure: Art Star sent me an XP-Pen Artist Pro 16 TP tablet for this promotion. Art Star or XP-Pen did not have editorial control over this article.

Seems too good to be true. Is there a catch?
Full disclosure: Bart is going to send that an XP-Pen Artist Pro 16 TP tablet to the first person commenting in this thread! :-)
Errrrrr :)
Thank you for your announcement about this program!
Will it take a long time for people who passed the last phase of the Art Star program to be announced?
