Wow! I think I'd go crazy trying to find files in the middle of all those squiggles. But hey, that's what it feels like when I'm painting the image!

yes, I always try to depict everything at the proper scale, based on structural information from the Protein Data Bank

When you say “whatever you want to do with it”, does that come with any limitations?

A few--the "science" category needs to focus on presenting the virus structure and function, but the "art" category is completely open. Also, the image needs to use CellPAINT in some or all of the image creation. It will all be explained when we announce the contest.

Hey that illustration is gorgeous and I'd love to see a video explanation of what's going on there. If you are up to and haven't done anything like that before, I can have something setup at to help out laypeople to appreciate this piece.

Thanks! There's more information at pdb101.rcsb.org/sci-art/goodse and I'm working up a full description of the science now. I'm hoping that everyone can use this as a resource when they are creating their own coronavirus-related projects, so feel free to use it!
