Fall is here, and we're once again bringing you a full month of daily art challenges throughout October. Whether you like to draw or bring ideas to life in-game via Captura, we invite all Tenno to participate by making, sharing and celebrating.

For 2026, illustrators and Captura artists are asked to submit inky, black-and-white, tattoo-inspired designs each day based on this year's prompts. Visit the Official Tennotober 2026 Megathread on the Warframe Forums to post your work (and see what your fellow Tenno are creating, too)!

We're proud to participate in the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation Quest every October, and as a nod to our ongoing support of their important work, we encourage you to add pink or purple to your submissions from October 11-17 (including an extra special prompt on October 12).

Tenno who participate this year will be eligible to receive a Tennotober treat in their in-game Inbox later in 2026, as long as they meet at least one of the following requirements:

• Submit at least 5 or more eligible drawings
• Submit at least 10 or more eligible Captura
• Submit a mix of 5 Captura images and 3 drawings

Official Contest Rules

• Illustrations must be drawn with ink. Black and white is encouraged for an extra challenge! Digital ink is allowed. Feel free to get fancy with hand drawings or just use a black ballpoint pen - whatever is best for you!
• Captura images and illustrations must be related to the Warframe prompts below and appropriate for the community forums.
• Submission must be your own original work.
• We do not accept AI-generated images.
• You cannot reserve spots in the official contest thread.
• Submissions that do not follow these rules will be removed.
• We welcome 3D render submissions and black & white watercolours in the drawing category. If you render, try a high contrast inky style!
• Let us know what medium you are using for each submission

Use hashtags #Tennotober and #Tennotober2026 on social media to share your creations with the world! We’ll be showcasing select works on our streams and official channels.

We can’t wait to see this year's amazing artwork. Happy Tennotober!
