You can still sign up until June 10th. Unfortunately I missed the nomination period, but there is a good variety of fandoms, plus some fun challenges in the Creator‘s choice of fandom category (character as mermaid/monster/yokai, remixes of classic paintings etc.)

multifandomdoodle has all information.

Many thanks to

Drawesome Challenge 66: 10 Year Redraw

Challenge 66: 10 Year Redraw

Redraw one of your older artworks from 10+ years ago.

You may redo your drawing using a similar style, technique or medium to that of the original piece. Or you're welcome to simply take inspiration from the original piece, and change things up, put a new spin on it. When completed, be sure to share both old and recent artworks in your post.

A round-up post for submissions to this challenge will be done at the end of next month on Wednesday 31st July, 2024.

Happy Drawing, everyone! :)

Content Notes: Created for Challenge #64: No Erase. Thanks to

yhlee for the nudge that helped me finally sit down to get some drawing practice done tonight. :)

These are digital drawings based on a timed series of poses, from this Youtube video. Having a clock ticking down, and not being able to undo or erase, made this quite an interesting challenge. I'm just pleased that they came out somewhat recognisably human. :b
