Admin Post: Community Check-In for March 2019

[goss]

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

Did you get a chance to take part in any fandom activities in March, 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, etc.

------------

Also, since it's the start of a new month tomorrow, we will be posting up a new community art challenge on April 1st, so looking forward to that! :)

Very late to this (but when am I not late?)

I got a tablet this month, so I've been having a bit of a mess around (mostly unsuccessfully) with that and did this tree and background thingy. Did a few bits of tracing to practice line control and stuff with the stylus. Started on this piece of fanart that I may or may not get around to finishing. Or might redo completely at some point.

Made a start on some lineart based on a sketch I did for a friend's fanfic back before Christmas.

Oh, and I did this piece of traditional art with chalk pastels for my mum for Mother's Day right at the end of the month.

Possible goals for April will be trying to figure out how to colour digitally for the lineart, maybe finishing the Merthur fanart of them in the shadows I linked above. Or alternatively using one of the pieces I did for tracing practice to make an Andy Warhol style pop art piece, possibly, as part of the Merlin's Spring Cleaning fest to encourage us Merlin artists all to finish our Merlin art WIPs.

Other non-art goals will be to try and finish my Merlin Reverse fic and get a move on with Camelot Remix and possibly contemplate if I am crazy enough to do After Camlann Big Bang as a writer again this year (sign ups for writers, artists, betas and hype readers are now open, if there are any Merlin artists who might be interested! *gratuitous plug*)

So all that should keep me very busy indeed.
