U-Stella Launches the Lumia VRChat Photo Contest
U-Stella, a company based in Meguro, Tokyo, is thrilled to announce the launch of the
Lumia VRChat Photo Contest starting on
January 19, 2026. This engaging initiative invites fans to participate creatively using the original 3D avatar
CCD-SOLCIEL [LUMIA], affectionately known as
Lumia-chan. The avatar, designed specifically for VRChat, showcases an array of expressive features, including customizable outfits, a pen function, and stamp capabilities, allowing users to unleash their imagination.
The contest aims to breathe life into the community by encouraging users to capture stunning photographs incorporating
Lumia-chan in any scene of their choice within the VRChat universe. There's no restriction on themes or categories, meaning participants can create freely! Photos that feature Lumia-chan along with other U-Stella avatars are also welcome. This inclusivity allows for vibrant diversity in submissions, enhancing the creative potential of participants.

Entering the contest is straightforward: participants need to repost the official contest announcement from U-Stella's X (formerly known as Twitter) account, ensuring to include their captured image with the quote. This simple method allows for easy engagement as creators share their unique takes on Lumia-chan in various environments.
