November Contest: This was the end of the road for Kamari...
-
@Asyas_illos I did receive an email at the end of October asking me if I was participating in All-Stars, but I haven't received any instructions beyond asking to respond if I was joining. It did say that we would have about five weeks to work on it, and it was sent on October 31st. I did submit an entry on the SVS Learn site tonight, and then also emailed support@svslearn.com with that entry and another one just in case it is due tonight.
I just double checked my email from last year, and we did submit them to @AustinShurtliff and not on the site. It was due Dec. 7th, so I messed up this year and should have not submitted mine on the website . Hopefully they will send instructions soon, but I understand that they are probably really busy, especially with two contests to run this next month. -
@Kim-Rosenlof ok I did hear that we had another month to work on it when I responded to that email, so I wasn’t planning on submitting tonight, maybe I should just to be safe?

I started drawing this after reading about the name 'Kamari', that it's an Arabic girl's name that means 'moon'. This inspired me to draw a girl who is the moon (moon godess?), travelling through the night sky until her journey is over with the sun rising. But for the world it is a new beginning - a beginning of a new day.
I wanted to draw this, even though while working on it I thought I won't submit it - it's again too much out there, too vague.
In the end I submitted it though, last minute -
@Asyas_illos If they told you had longer, then I wouldn't worry about submitting tonight. I just had planned on submitting tonight because I hadn't heard one way or the other, and I didn't want it lingering over me into December (busy month). Tonight, when I looked at the email from last year's All-Stars, I realized that we had a bit more time last year than I remembered. If I am wrong, then you can reference this post to say that I told you wrong . I am sure that they will send out an email giving us more info.

Just made it on this one! I did a full page spread (which I like better), but decided to crop it for the actual entry.
Thank you to those who gave me feedback! I know I didn’t apply all of it, but I was cutting it a little to close to really bounce other ideas off people.

Didn't have time to finish this off but wanted to submit something so here we are. I was made redundant on Monday from my in-house illustration job (that revolved around dogs) with no warning so I've had a horrible, depressing few days and couldn't look at another dog straight away, haha. Good luck everyone!
Here's to my future in freelance!

@Sarah-VanDam this turned out really great!

@Chantal-Goetheer Thank you!!!

Hi, here is my picture for this month.

Hi everyone, I just recently joined SVS after binging on 3point perspective podcasts and the SVS YouTube channel. Got through the whole lot in just over a week!
It's my first critique arena, and I'm now fully regretting my choice of character, as it is so miniscule! I had to take some liberties with scale after my brain exploded trying to get the scale right! And obviously I didn't account for the strip at the bottom till the end, so the shadow gets cut off at a weird place... But I got something in!

@marek-halko - you are truly a genius! Such a simple and perfect concept for a prompt that made my brains scrambled! Well done! Love it
-
@marek-halko - meant to say that the artwork is also beautifully rendered and unique as always!
-
@marek-halko Cute and hairy! Love it!
-
It's awesome to see some many different options where to go with this month prompt!
Here's my take on it.
-
My entry!

@Katherine thank you I appreciate that. The time I gave is just the actual painting part of the image. There are a few more hours of thumbnails and figuring stuff out at the beginning which I didn't count! But once I'm locked in, it all goes quite quickly after that.
-
@carrieannebrown sorry to hear about your redundancy. That's really crap. I like what you've done with the prompt. Great job. I'm sure freelance will work out.
-
@Katherine giant snail for the win! I like the direction you went with it in the end. Also think the white space for text is a clever addition. Well done.

@mag Cute characters! ️

@carrieannebrown so sorry to hear that and still you finished your piece containing a dog. Hats off to you!!
