Admin Post: Community Check-In for September 2020

[goss]

Tomorrow's the last day of September, and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you this past month?

Did you sign up for or take part in any fandom activities in September, or have you been working on any personal art projects? Are you currently trying to meet a deadline? Feel free to share upcoming challenges that have got you excited, any frustrations you've been experiencing, possible goals for the next month, and so on.

Upcoming Art Challenge

Are you planning on taking part in some version of (?)'tober next month? :)

We'll be doing Drawtober: drawesome's own compilation of daily prompts suggested by our community members:



Our challenge is very chill. You can create drawings daily, weekly or randomly. Feel free to combine prompts. Use ink or whatever drawing material makes you happy. The main thing is to be inspired, and to get drawing! :D

This month I've only been working on pieces for the challenges I signed up for:

wipbigbang: I did art for a new fandom, The Witcher here. I originally wanted to practice Jaskier and Geralt via the shrimp method but that turned out too involved for my energy levels and the available time.

poi_fanworks: I finished two watercolour pieces for the Person of Interest Bigbang and am working on the third (probably final) piece for a lovely story with an artist in it! I can't share these yet, posting dates are in November.

Next is ds_c6d_bigbang: I've started reading the fic and hope to get inspired.

nifexchange: I'll get my assignment tomorrow and am SUPER EXCITED! There were so many good prompts this year.

And also there is Drawtober of course. Fortunately The two challenges running parallel have their deadlines in November so I hope to be able to do at least a couple of Drawtober pieces.

That's a lot of art! Especially with a bb on hand!

Thank you! I was a bit worried I wouldn't be able to juggle things but for now at least it's working. :-)

The Witcher one came out nice! I like the dualities you worked in, and the fire really works on that background.

Thank you! I was going for a lot of dual contrasts so I'm glad that came across.
