Our SVS Virtual Studio MAY 2021🌷

[burvantill]

It's MAY! This month, will your art reflect what's under the sea or in a galaxy far far away? Or both and more?! Will the one day of Baby Grogu art bombardment be enough to Force (see what I did there) out of our minds the buckets and BUCKETS of Mer-folk we will see this month? Hmm...

What’s everyone working on right now?

Imagine you are walking through a studio silently looking over people’s shoulders at their work. This is NOT a place for critiques. You may applaud, encourage, ooh and ah only.

Edit: Yes, I know it's not May quite yet, but at least I'm not 5 days late this time. LOL

Just for giggles, because I'm a total nerd, I went through April's Virtual Studio posts and did some data analyzing.
@Braden-Hallett & @kylebeaudette tied with the most posts with their art in them. @Georgios-Christopoulos and myself tied for second most posts with our art in them. I'm not going to dig too deep into what that might say about us. We just like sharing! LOL.

@jakecrowe has the honor of getting the most likes for one art post.

Thanx everyone for sharing your art here in the Virtual Studio. This is THE BEST forum EVER!
Art Friends are awesome!
=)x

@burvantill that’s interesting! I imagine it being one of the first of the thread makes that a possibility. It was also a holiday related post, and hit the new number one rule: cute always wins. Cool quick look at the analytics and what you can take from them. Fun post, thanks!

I've got to pick up my pace now that I know you are counting posts

I became a father about a week ago (), so I've been working on a birth announcement card for my son Ben the last few days... :-]

[TessaW]

Congratulations!!! That's so awesome that you get to make a personalized announcement for him. It's very cute.

[burvantill]

@demotlj LOL! That was just a fluke. I was bored and curious. Probably won't ever happen again. ...probably

[burvantill]

@PieterVanDerBeek CONGRATULATIONS!!!

[Asyas_illos]

@PieterVanDerBeek congratulations! Very cute!

@PieterVanDerBeek

Gefeliciteerd! The card really looks nice.

I'm working on character designs for both my upcoming comic project (about a young kid trying to make it as a guitarist...) and my WiP web application project for guitar students (https://fretshare.com).

To begin with, practice drawing various guitarists trying to find the style I want to go for:

My goal this month is to complete the character designs for my first one-page story (5 characters in total). I will be asking for feedback.

My stretch goal is to start penciling in the page.

A commission for a friend...!

And a fan art also in April but it’s like whatever...

@Asyas_illos Surprisingly, this is the FIRST Mermay art that I have seen. That second one makes me giggle.
