Apex Legends developers have announced the winners of the fan art competition, showing off the very best work by avid players with an artistic streak.

The fan art challenge was announced by Respawn on March 20, asking fans to submit any artistic creation from drawings to full cosplay, with game-related prizes up for grabs.

Hundreds of submissions were judged, but there could only be nine winners, announced an April 2.

The team of judges selected one piece of art for each of the nine legends in the game, so there could only be one winner per legend.

Bangalore

This simple yet effective drawing of Bangalore is basic in its design, but manages to capture her likeness well.

Nothing fancy about this artwork, just gets the job done – like Bangalore herself.

Pathfinder

A more cartoonish approach for one of the more light-hearted legends.

This one might not have the detail of the other winners, but it has the character.


Wraith

It’s no surprise that this remarkable Wraith illustration is a winner.

This Wraith drawing is almost anime-like.

Octane

The newest legend, Octane, looks suitably animated in this artwork.

Octane is the newest legend in Apex Legends.
