FanArtFriday – Show Us Your B+T Fanart
Added by Lena and Mireya
Attention fans & dans, creative Roswellians, Fehrians, Pixie Chicks and fans of paranormal mysteries and Sci-Fi!
On Fridays fans post their creative fandom related work. Let’s get creative and spread the word about our Baron And Toluca Twitter Campaign, which takes place on Saturdays at 6 PM EST. Are you on Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram and/or Facebook? Post your original Baron And Toluca related artwork on that platforms, add the hashtags #FanArtFriday and #BandTfanart in order that many other fans discover your art, get curious about it and join us on Campaign Day. Please don’t forget to tag @crashdowncom in your photo or post. If your account is private, please send us the graphic via direct message on your prefered social media site.
Your post should include this information only:
Join us on Sat. at 6 PM EST when we let Netflix know that WE WANT B+T! #FanArtFriday #BandTfanart www.baronandtoluca.com
Please don’t add the campaign hashtag and please don’t add Netflix to your posts and tweets. It’s all about getting the word out about the campaign, which takes place on the next day: Saturday at 6 PM EST.
Please see @TeflonBabe‘s artwork, which promotes the campaign perfectly. Of course you can freely choose the content and topic of your artwork. Post GIF animations, sketches, … get creative and everyone excited about the project! See some tips from Mireya below.
We will pick four graphics and tweet them during the campaign on Saturday at 6 PM EST. (A page with the embedded tweets will be up simultaneously on www.crashdown.com, so that fans can easily find it and retweet. See a sample here.)
After the start of the Twitter campaign everyone is invited to vote with a click on the heart button (Twitter users ONLY!). Voting is open until Sunday night. After that you can still retweet and like the tweets, but the likes don’t count anymore.
Make sure to let your friends know about this and please ask them to support your submission and the B+T campaign. The artwork with the most “likes” will be featured on Crashdown.com and its social media handles: Facebook | Twitter | Tumblr | Instagram
Post your submissions on Fridays with the hashtag #FanArtFriday and #BandTfanart.
You can submit
- Digital graphics

Where We Will Look Out For Your Artwork: Facebook | Twitter | Tumblr | Instagram

Tips
If you’ve got a private account, share your post with your friends on Fridays only, but make sure to send in your artwork via direct message or e-mail! Otherwise we can’t see your submission. On Facebook you can change the settings for this single post to “public”, if you like to in order that we are able to find it. Instagram has a direct message function, we’d recommend you to use for submitting your work in case that your account is private.
Some tips from Mireya
Get inspired by what you would like to see on B+T, or with the photos Majandra and Brendan have posted so far on the official Baron And Toluca website. Create AU scenarios (alternate universe) or include your favorite characters from Roswell that you would like to see guest starring and show who this person would be?
