Art Challenge is coming back Monday September 12th!

That's right! We took a break for the summer but now it's time to dust off Gimp and PS and pencils whatever you use to make art or write fan fic!

The first challenge [if we get enough people to sign up!] will be a pairs challenge. You will be assigned a partner, and each team will either collaborate together on a project, or encourage each other to start [and/or] finish a project. If you are interested, please let me or slizzie1986 know asap!

If you don't have enough signups for the pairs challenge, we'll have a backup challenge. If there is no interest through this month, we will have to stop the challenges.

Stay tuned!

Art Challenge 2.0

The art challenge is back! I hope everyone had a great summer! Mine was ridiculously busy and hot, with no signs of cooling off anytime soon. Ugh!

We had a few sign ups for the pairs challenge, but we are extending it until next week if you still want to sign up. Just let me or slizzie 1986 know by Sunday September 18th so we can match up pairs and you can get started on Monday the 19th!
For the pairs challenge, you will be paired up with someone and you will either motivate and cheer each other on to finish a long lingering project that has been festering, or you can collaborate together on a new and exciting project!

For this week's challenge, let us dust off our Gimp or PS or whatever program you use. Some may be rusty, out of practice, or your muse is still on vacation. Let's take it slow and ease back into art {or fan fic}. Make some art [or fan fic] about a new show you are excited about coming to TV this fall. Either a returning favorite, or a new show you can't wait to see. Please include the title of the TV show somewhere in the art.

Entries are due to me by noon your time Monday September 19th.

Art Challenge #113

I know I am a day early, but I will be out of the house all day tomorrow so lucky you, you get an extra day on this challenge! You still have time to enter last weeks challenge [the TV show you are looking forward to this fall]. I will post those entries tomorrow evening.

For this week, we are going to do a technical challenge. {We also have a behind the scene pairs challenge. If you signed up for that, you have already been PM'd and you have your partner. If you have a partner, you can still do this challenge as extra, OR with your partner, whatever you two decide.} For the rest of us.....

This week you have a choice.

1. make 2 icons [either 100x100 or 110x110 or 120x120] that somehow match. Either same pic, same colors, both are split half&half, both are B&W, whatever you think means "matching".

2. for those of you that despise icons and won't even try them make some art that focuses on 'negative space'.

You can also do both challenges, make icons that include negative space. The more art the better!!

Entries due to me by noon your time Monday September 26th.

Shameless self plug. I finally broke out the Gimp and I made this:



It's been weeks, months, okay many, many months since I made something.

I am a very bad RiG. I have completely forgotten about the challenges and, well, this thread/GW. And I am so disappointed that I missed the "new show" challenge as I had the two perfect shows for it.

There are a lot of great entries up there and I love your "self plug" art, Copter.

*hugs* Yeah, it's good to be back.

Go ahead and post your art, we want to see it!

I still have to make art first. I haven't Gimped in ages so I may be a bit rusty.


And, aw crud! I forgot about the last challenge too!


I have a lot of making up to do. Good thing I have tomorrow off.
