Hi there!
For now it's me and SpectreX and who ever wants to join us...
As you see by the title, we'll be doing the Blood Sports challenges.
(Its always hard to think about things to study and what to illustrate)
But what better to do is use topics already created.
(Anybody that's new is welcome to join us.)(this might talk a year or 2, haha)
So what are the goals.
-First things first, START at Bloodsports Number 1!!!
-Do 3 separate illustrations with the theme (except for BS 12, that's 3+ anyway).
-Do studies for each piece.
-Try to vary as much with each piece to get a wide spectrum of studies
and use a different color palette or tone for each piece.
-If the illustration has human figures in them, there must be at least 1 female and
male out of the 3 pieces, just to make sure we get practice with both genders and it
be pretty bad if you only have male characters in your portfolio.
-We will still want to compete in current Bloodsports, so when there is a new BS, do the one
to at least enter and then rules are rules, do 2 extra illustration, before you can go back
and keep doing the old BS challenges.
-Challenges like wind walker and spirited away, maybe we can do the challenge and choose another game and anime movie's cover to redo and do it good. ( So there is still at least some freedom and we can still make our own rules and stuff, or even share ideas and we can do the same themes.)
-We are here to improve and create strong portfolio pieces and like Dan and Dave said, these challenges were created as industry jobs, so by doing them can only help and prepare us for the future.
We both have pretty hectic lives where we don't have too much time, but we will try to update at least once a week.
Thanks for reading.
Wish us luck!
Here are some studies I'm busy with just to show some progress for now, hopefully I can finish these studies and start on the actual pieces and will probably discover some more studies that I will need to do, whatever I should do to learn more and more.
So I wanted to do something different kind of, and as I said in my goals, I want 3 different color pallets and settings to get as much practice as possible.
So what am I going to do:
First
- Girl hanging from tree with sloth pet on back in forest green scene.
Second
- Man riding a polar bear with bow in a snowy mountain scene.
Third
- Man diver with scifi pet jelly fish in an under water scene.
