One example of design challenge from outside going on right now, is Istebrak is doing a character/weapon design thing. It's requiring all of that specific prep work submitted and final rendered illustration. While it might simulate doing client work, my issue with that is it's kinda getting too picky for a casual thing to do in your free time. I don't always have time to do all that work, I might just have time to come up with one or two ideas and make an unfinished drawing of one of them. Ideally I think you'd have at least front and back views of object painted in perspective, if applicable, and functional extra sketch for extra explanation. But at the end of the day it's better to just post your idea in whatever state you're at than not at all because it doesn't check every requirement box.
