Skin.Club has extended the submission period for the Skin Creators Contest until September 27, giving artists an additional week to join the project and submit their work. The extended application period gives more artists time to prepare their entries while keeping enough space for qualification and community voting later in the competition.
The Skin Creators Contest was created to bring more attention to the people behind CS2 skins. Participating artists can showcase their work to the community, compete for a prize pool starting at $10,000, receive media support from Skin.Club, and win an invitation to the HLTV Awards in January 2027.
With the updated schedule, the contest will now develop as follows:
- Until September 27: Creator submissions
- September 28 – October 4: Qualifier
- October 5–11: Top 64 voting
- October 12–18: Top 32 voting
- October 19–25: Top 8 voting
- October 26: Huge Giveaway results and Skin Creators Contest results
- October 27: Official end of the contest
After the submission period closes, the project will move into qualification before the community begins voting through the Top 64, Top 32, and Top 8 stages. The extended deadline gives creators who have not yet submitted their work another opportunity to become part of the contest, while players will soon be able to take a more active role by supporting and voting for the artists they want to see progress. The Skin Creators Contest will officially conclude on October 27.
