deviantART Presents: Design the DEW®!
(Dream it, Draw it, Design the DEW® !)

Mountain Dew® has busted the cap off their Green Label Art Limited Edition Bottle Series™ project (check out the latest Volume 2 bottles at www.greenlabelart.com). Twenty-one legendary artists have already had their go at the Mountain Dew® Green Label Art Limited Edition Bottle Series. Talents like Mark Smith, Billy the Artist, Maze and Methamphibian have created amazing pieces of work. The best-of-the-best inkers, graffiti artists and more have brought originality and style to the Mountain Dew® limited edition bottles.

DeviantART is taking this concept and we're rocking it FTW! We are searching for an artist who can define their expression of DEW®. We are looking for jaw-dropping, mind-blowing graphic art. Check out the www.greenlabelart.com for a taste of what we are looking for. We just need you to add your devious style to the mix! Can you show us your dream DEW® design?


Dream it, Draw it, Design it!

This contest is all about your imagination and Mountain Dew® as your inspiration. Your entry has to be fully digital, so if you've got a favorite design program, great! Get cracking! If you don't, the good folks at Mountain Dew® cooked up a Design Lab complete with their own Design Tool – check it out at www.greenlabelart.com. Once you create your design using the tool, save it to your desktop. See below on how to enter your submission. Make the DEW® pop, make it real, make it you, and be the winner of this awesome contest.

Just how tricky can you get? You can enter your submissions here:

"And finally, because going through over 1,000 amazing entries cannot possibly have been easy, we would like to thank our wonderful judging panel for all their hard work!"
Strange I was under the impression the judges only had to see a small percentage of the entries? Bah! Still I was rather unimpressed with this whole ordeal...
