new group and (maybe?) a new style...

So, on dA I joined a group called Hetherev, another art roleplay group like MoM.

Volancoru the Dragon. If you can't read it, go here.

The idea is that characters get dropped in the world of Hetherev, losing much of their power and memory in the process. Once there, they go through the various challenges, getting chances to interact with a vast array or chars.

Number one was the entrance challenge. How and where does your char enter heth...

Naturally, Vol's lucky enough to wake up in the one and only active volcano. Notice the (almost) monochrome coloring? That was so much fun I decided to do more...

There's currently a special challenge going to draw you char as an elemental (a being adapted to one specific element). I started with wind:

But I liked it so much I did fire, water, and earth too:

Fire's my favorite out of the bunch.

All of these took roughly 2-3 hours and are done in monochrome, and I LOVE them. So... I think I'm one step closer to finding my own style. WOOT!

Evergreen State Fair 2011

I entered some artwork in the local fair this year, and they all won!

I haven't posted this one yet, full size coming soon
Jorogumo - 96 Points - First Place

Dobhar-Chu - 91 Points - First Place

Daleel - 84 Points - Second Place

Each category had multiple winners, your place was based on a score card and not who's the absolute best. 90+ got you first place, 80+ got second, and 70+ got third. It was sort of like grades in school: this many points gets you an A, this many gets you a B, etc. That was possibly my favorite part of the contest, that they gave me the score cards afterward so I could see WHY I got the scores that I did, they even wrote critiques on them!
