    Exciting news for the Legion EMEA gaming community! Legion is teaming up with talented comic illustrator and game designer @SalvaEspin to celebrate the dual lives that us gamers lead.

    Normal people by day but warlocks and warriors by night, raise your hand if you can relate! In their research, Lenovo Legion found that over half (52%) of gamers identify with their online alter-ego more than their real-life identity. I know we have a whole load of members of our community who embrace this duality - I know I do! There’s no better feeling than defeating my enemies with a magic spell after a long day at work 💫

    To celebrate our second skin gaming alter egos, @SalvaEspin has put his talents to work and created a collection of 5 limited-edition stickers that combine the on and offline world, which are perfect for adding to your Lenovo gaming laptop.

    But even better, we get the chance to help design the next one!

    --------

    What can you win?

    If yours is the winning sticker design, you will win:

    • A 1hr private coaching session with @SalvaEspin, professional comic artist and game designer, to see your design created in a professional way
    • The winning design, once professionalised, will then be published in the Legion Gaming Community social channels
    • We’ll also send you a set of the original 5 Second Skin stickers designed by Salva Espín
    • Last but not least the winner will also get a Lenovo Legion Laptop 🎉

    How to enter?

    To be in with a chance of winning, simply submit your ‘second skin’ design by replying to this thread by 26th January! Salva will select his favourite, and work with them to transform their design into a finished comic character.

    Remember to include all those little things that make you unique in your design, and let your imagination run free. After all, you are designing your own video game character!! Blue hair? Horns? Angel wings? The sky's the limit!

    This competition is exclusive to our Lenovo Legion Gaming community! For inspiration, see some of Salva’s work here!

    We can’t wait to see your designs!

    @DoctorEldritch I haven't seen any information regarding the medium of the art. Is traditional art fine or does it have to be digital?

    We’ve had some great entries so far! A little bit of inspiration for anyone still creating their own entry: @SalvaEspin has shared a little bit about his creative process and some sneak peeks of the sketches of the Second Skin designs in their early stages!


    And this is what the sticker looks like in the end:
