Art jam anyone?

[fade]

Just curious if anyone here would like to do an art jam or two. I love them, because they get the creative juices flowing. I noticed a couple were posted, and I don't want to do anything that no one will participate in. I think a low investment level is fine. Sketches and doodles are ok, in other words. I'm thinking one of three formats:

1. Themed jam -- the ordinary kind. Pick some topic and draw from it
2. "Continuous" jam -- a topic is started, and the drawing passes from one artist to another, each of whom adds his/her own touch
3. Comic jam -- each artist draws a panel (kind of like the MS paint thread)

Anyone interested?

I'd be down.

MS PAINT THREAD!!!! We need another one!

 

[Gusto]

But I like my pencils.

Or maybe I'll finally give this fancy-shmancy tablet the ol' college try.

A comic panel is something I'd be game for.

 

[David]

I could do that if my laptop decides to cooperate with photoshop

 

[Philosopher B.]

Shit yes. Count me in.

Philo-B, who likes ideas no. 1 and 3 best.

 

[Gusto]

I like number one the best.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

I dig one.

Cool. So how about we go with number 1. Let's set a theme and a deadline then. Any ideas on theme, or should I call one?

 

[Zappit]

Hmm, since it's the first, we should pick a good, classy theme.

The Brothers Grimm fairy tales

All-time great heroes as villains and vice-versa

A history of Halforum

Great video game characters

Just a couple ideas.

 

[Far]

Count me in as well. No ideas for a theme though myself.

I like history of Halforums as a starting theme. I know it's internal and all, but it might be fun to play with. How about that (as a themed, traditional jam), and we can go for, let's say a week? Shorter? Not sure what you guys are used to.

 

[Gusto]

I'm not used to anything, hehe.

Do you mean let's all have something done and posted by, let's say, Friday February 19th?

 

[Zappit]

The 19th seems to be a good date. Then someone can paste it together. We gotta pick images though - lest we produce a swarm of angry Kurtzes.

 

[Gusto]

I finally came up with a couple decent ideas. One of 'em is a little more obvious but only involves drawing two people of whom I have a ton of photo reference. The other is (I think) a cooler idea but involves drawing 8 people basically from memory.

I guess we'll see how motivated I am tomorrow.

 

[Gusto]

8 Days of Halforums, Day 1.

Spoiler

It's Juski.

More to come as I do them.

 

[Fun Size]

This brings me happy. Please to be bringing more.

 

[Cajungal]

Nice. Is he hiding his red cup?

 

[Fun Size]

He kind of looks like someone took his red cup, and they're gonna lose their ass for it.

 

[Gusto]

I contemplated drawing Juski's red cup but then remembered I had ALREADY DONE THAT DRAWING.

 

[Cajungal]

True, true. Anyway, the picture is freakin cool. I like the criss-crossy way you color in.

 

[Gusto]

Working on the next one this afternoon. :O

 

[Cajungal]

Whooooo is eeeeet?

 

[Gusto]

:O

Who indeeeeeed.

 

[Cajungal]

 

[Cajungal]

Teehee

 

[Gusto]

My mind.

She is blown.

 

[Cajungal]

ATTENTION, ARTISTS! I AM NOW YOUR QUEEN!
