Odd Fish Fan Art Call for Submissions

Fans of James Kennedy's The Order of Odd-Fish have not been shy about sharing their ideas of what the intriguing world of Eldritch City looks like. Owing to the great fan art he's received, James is joining forces with Collaboraction to put on an Odd-Fish extravaganza in Spring 2010. The show will feature a gallery of Odd-Fish fan art and a Dome of Doom costumed dance party, which should be quite the sight. To gear up for the show, James is welcoming the work of all Odd-Fish loving artists out there and asking them to send their pieces to him for inclusion in the gallery. The deadline is March 1, so get out your favorite creative medium and show us what you think Eldritch and all of its eccentric inhabitants look like. In need of some inspiration? All of the pieces James has received so far can be seen here.
