Weekly Community Art Focus
« on: July 12, 2012, 04:10:19 pm »
Several people have tried daily art request threads, but few people have the time, energy, and inclination to draw a random request each day at their full potential, especially if they need to research it. My proposed solution is to have the Bay 12 community suggest and vote on one topic to focus on per week. Seeing how other people draw the same topic should be fun, and will hopefully be insightful for less experienced artists.

Naturally, there is no obligation to use the chosen topic, and anybody may post a work on any suggestion or combinations of suggestions they find inspiring. Any artistic medium is welcome. Less skilled artists are just as welcome as professionals.

Anyone may suggest or vote, even if they don't otherwise contribute.

If a topic is close to first place, vote wise, I'll add it to the next week's poll. I'll post the results of the first poll on Monday.

this means that a donation of 30 dollars to a developer that did not deliver would equal 4.769*10^-14 hitlers stolen from you
that's like half a femtohitler
and that is terrible

This is a cool idea and I will scribble something. But may I suggest adding vote-switching to the poll if you aren't going to include all the options at the beginning?

......

Apparently not, since it keeps disabling itself, and there's no apparent way to re-enable it without starting a new thread. I'll keep voting locked for the first part of the week, then enable it for the weekends (starting Fridays).

Despite my inability to properly draw, I thought I'd give it a go:

Quick scribble because goblins like to haggle.

Don't have much time for this week, but I'll throw in a vote for Navi accosting a goblin for next week. Are we limited to drawings?

You're not limited to drawings. (Please don't vote in-thread, I only count poll votes.)

The topic didn't specify how the goblin traders should like.
I've tried not to copy generic goblin character designs, and as result they ended up looking reptiloid and rather kobold-like.
Note to self: Bold pencils are not good enough for general shading.

My sketch/painting for the goblin merchants (made into a merchant). will probably go back and fine tune it sometime in the future.
