JULY CONTEST: Albert needs a home!
-
@neschof I'm in the same boat.
-
So is it supposed to be the home he lives in within the family home or the families home?
-
@neschof @burvantill The mods usually say you don’t have to stick to the character that you created for the month before – so it’s okay if you don’t have an Albert from June.
We probably just need to get who your Albert is at heart from the picture – so, yeah, you will need to know who your Albert is still.
-
@Kevin-Treaccar Exactly! There should be a hint of who/what Albert is: "details and a flair that make it the perfect abode for Albert and his family". I was wondering if Albert should appear or not in the drawing?
-
@KGatto I think it should be the family home... it is understood the exterior of the house should be represented (at 3/4). If Albert should live in a smaller house inside a room of the house then that would be part an interior. If you are thinking of a little house in the larger house's yard .. I don't feel that answers the "Albert lives with a family as a family member" idea...

@Oana @Kevin-Treaccar
I am thinking of adding my "Albert" to the scene just so the details on the house will make more sense if the viewer knows what/who Albert is. Since I didn't do last month's character design I'm making a house for a current character of mine. -
I read this as exterior 3/4 shot. Is that correct? Or is it just 3/4 shot and can be interior?
-
@Kevin-Treaccar I think the whole presentation reads "exterior"... It mentions "a building", it should look "suburban".. maybe an interior could be suggestive too but I think it would be more difficult, no? I also looked at the previous challenge "a house for a Yeti" and those were all exterior representations.
-
I almost always include linework in my work, so I'm trying something a little different on this one.
-
Here is my house design. Time to load it up to the template. -
@Joe-Koz I love the footprints leading to the splash in the pool!
-
Albert arrives at his new home in England. I hope the colours are ok, I did the value / tone thing first so fingers crossed it has worked. Little Albert bear should be the focal point.
I’m much more comfortable with coloured pencil techniques for colouring in.
-
Here is my entry for july. Looking forward to seeing more homes for Albert.
-
@chrisaakins this is amazing. I love the style choice, everything about this home is appealing to me. Great work, you’ve got my vote!
-
Submitted early for a change…Really loving the house entries so far!
-
@Asyas_illos thanks so much! I am glad you like it!
-
@chrisaakins looks exactly like the kind of house I'd like to live in!

Here's mine which is also a combo of the classes I've been taking on the Foundations Path (can't wait to do Creative Comp, the Light and Shadow Class, and the more in depth perspective!). This month I also tried Will's dry brush acrylic class which is what I tried for this illustration. It's Albert the Beaver, adopted by rabbits and who loves his new brother. They are in his beaver den clubhouse. Can't wait to see more of your Albert houses!
