Day 1 - Fire Hydrant I’ll try to increase the quality of the image next time but still I’m relatively happy with today’s. The background got a little off perspective compared to the hydrant. The hydrant flows back and down while the background flows back and up. Though to be fair the reference is a bit confusing as well. I happen to work at my local water and sanitation district so I snagged this photo going out of work. Feel free to give me any pointers. Let’s go all the way everyone! 1/28

Congratulations to all the winners! This was a very difficult one to judge because there were way more amazing submissions than prizes. And if I counted correctly, there are 105 prizes... We will be adding all the digital prizes to your accounts within the next few days. For those that won prizes that require shipping, we will reach out to you.

super last minute submission, i did two 2 minute studies, a 1 minute study, and then two 10 minute ones! i wanted to break my habit of both zooming to far into my canvas (+ physically leaning too close to my monitor) and relying to hard on the liquify tool to correct mistakes, and i think i was pretty successful!

It's the last day!! Thanks for the challenges, I really enjoyed participating. I joined a few days late but it was incredible!! Biggest of props to the Proko team and Stan Himself!!! It takes a lot of effort to put this kind of thing together but it turned out amazing. Huge shout out as well to all the artists who streamed and shared their knowledge and skills with us!! Finally a shout out to all the people who liked and especially to those who commented on my posts!! Thank you all! The last day was very fun and though the time to work was short I'm happy glad I got to use such an awesome photo pack. I did a few 2 minute drawings and some 10 minute drawings as instructed. But to add in a little more fun I did two longer drawings. The first a pencil and the second a pencil to ink to color. Not my best work for sure but I'm still happy I did it and glad I can share it with so many people who love art. Happy Holidays to everyone and as always, happy drawing!

2 min warm ups, and 1 hour finished drawings.

I just did a quick one today. I spent most of my time finishing my illustration from yesterday instead of doing today's challenge. Not much point in posting this since it's relatively low effort and there is only one drawing but I figured it doesn't hurt. I'm glad I did one at least. I'll be using the timer tool to do more in the future for myself, that's for sure. Tomorrow is the last day and it's going to be amazing. Ryan Benjamin? Comic book posing? I'm there. Let's finish these challenges with a bang everyone!!

Did something very different today and unfortunately I couldn’t finish it in time. If I do finish it I’ll post it in the comments of this post. I used elements from some of the references to add to the frame like the wings and the horns. This is such a great set of photos. I hope you like it. I did my best to capture the process. Thumbnail and studies to, paper layin, to digital painting. Let’s see if I can finish this piece while doing the challenges over the next two days. Happy drawing.

Dug out the gouache, and used the Zorn palette. I had so much fun with it that I lost track of time, so I think these where closer to 40min each 😅

Watercolour +colour pencils. 1hour+

Had fun experimenting!
