      Super fun challenge this month! Looking forward to it!!
      Quick question: how will the sweet 16 bracket be applied to this contest? Will the winners of each round be publicly announced or will it be mostly an evaluation tool for the jury?

            The judges select 16 pieces from all the entries. Then during the critique arena they put them up randomly against each other in a bracket form. Then the viewers vote on who will move on to the next round.

              @Chip-Valecek interesting so viewers do you mean the judges or do you mean like audience members

                    This sounds amazing. I've already started my Slovember and was hoping to have time to do the contest this month too. I am so happy Slowember and the contest are combined so it is truly doable. Cannot wait to see everyones!

                          I know this is supposed to last all month long but due to family and school constraints, I am having to go ahead and submit. I did spend time researching the elements and working through thumbnails and getting a little critique help from the forums. To be fair I did quite a bit of character development for these characters that I have dubbed the Ink Mice during Inktober. I also did quite a bit of inking and coloring practice to develop this particular style. So without further ado here is a Christmas card cover: The Three Wise Mice!

                              @Zachary-Drenski Thanks! My goal for the month was to be able to create a digital image that looks traditionally done. I am really pleased with the results.

                                    @anya-macleod rather than deleting you can go back in and edit your post. Took me a few minutes to learn that.

                                    And your illustration looks lovely. I love the color palette.

                                            A very personal piece for the #slowvember challenge. I did a memory from my childhood, I remember the toys, the computer, the beer can collection and even the dinosaur poster I broke while playing baseball. I’m very happy with how it turned out!
