        Here’s a piece that is so slow I started it in October for the Inktober prompt “float” but it never got beyond the sketch stage. I’d like to see what I can do with it so maybe I’ll make it my Slovember project. [They are supposed to be young flying squirrels doing flight training.]

          @AustinShurtliff Hi all, I really like the the idea of Slowvember. I have a project which I've abandoned in October and I am starting it again. My mission is to finish it this month. It is a picture book project for my portfolio and because it is a multiple image project it is fitting just right for Slowvember but I definitely will follow Lee's advices and hopefully I will finish it by the end of the month. Slowvember will be my motivation to work on it and not to waste my time in other stuff.( Fortnite mostly 😁)
          Good luck everyone with your projects.

                I am working my way through the book, 'Creating Characters with Personality'. It describes a set of characters that you are to create. I plan to create an illustration with a couple of my characters.

                  Love this!

                  I may try my hand at creating a mid-grade-interior-style piece featuring reimagined Sherlock Holmes/Dr. Watson characters 🙂

                    I am having trouble adding an image to my comments in the threads, trying to add from my photos. I select the photo icon but it just inserts some quotations and parentheses? Any ideas...

                        Something different. I decided to fix the business side of art for Slowvember. Make a website and improve my client onboarding process to make future projects easier haha

                        I'm quite chuffed with how the online folio has turned out. Will tweak it a bit more as I go along 🙂

                          I think I am done! I wanted to make a piece, which will help me discover my style. I got to know, that I like happy, I like colourful and I like when its a bit funny. I have done it in illustrator and rendered in photoshop.

                            Very cool @aska, love the feeling of motion in the piece.

                              I felt inspired to create a Christmas card for Slowvember 2020. Every year I want to send out a promotional piece to clients for Christmas and every year I find reasons why I can't do it. The Slowvember 2020 call to action was the perfect fit for me.
                              I love illustrating wintery snow scenes with lights in them. I also have felt a tad emotional at times about the state of affairs in the world, in particular, the US, thus I felt called to illustrate a scene with a hopeful message of unity, bringing light into dark times. Those thoughts primarily went into the process of creating my piece. I have put together the different stages of my illustration until its completion. Christmas-Card-Progression.jpg

                                    Hi @AustinShurtliff, sharing my 2020 Slowvember piece in the group post.

                                    I really enjoyed taking my time through each stage, brainstorming, thumbnails, rough comp studies, sketches, color studies, rendering, textures and icing on the cake, or should I say cereal?

                                    This lesson in slowing down helped me sleep on decisions rather than trying to finish the piece. Since I work full-time in engineering and construction, I use any available time after hours to work on my craft.

                                    As ancient wisdom, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

                                            Just finished my Slowvember. Hopefully next year, I'll actually take the whole month and finish on time.
