Good evening one and all!

Three seekers of truth have wandered into the valley of Erekdale and have been favored by Frank the thunderphoenix! He has brought them to the meeting-place, so that they can find their feet a little bit before venturing into the story-threads of Erekdale and building their own…[Read more]

It’s the last week of November! In fact, by the end of this week, we will have dipped into December, the last month of the year!

And then cometh 2019. O.o

You know what, though? I’m excited about 2019. I’ve experienced a lot of growth over the course of this year. A lot of hardship and some of the most intense troubles of my life so far, and yet…[Read more]

I do show my work, and, yeah, I really used to hate showing it because I never knew what to say when someone told me it was really good.  Now I say thanks and move on, or if they put themselves down (“I could never draw like that” etc.)  I tell them that it just takes a lot of practice.  I have neve…[Read more]

@kelly-lundgren No way! Did you peak at my schedule of discussion topics?! :O

Young characters especially can be very difficult to create a strong backstory for.

One thing that can help give us more substance to work with, however, is to make sure we understand the backstories of all the people who are major influences upon this young…[Read more]

Looks like we have some excellent goals this week! Let’s do this!!!

@sageinthemeadow It’s always so fun to see how you’ve changed as an artist, and person in general, and the different choices you make when redrawing old art. ^-^ Also, super encouraging to see your improvement.  Maybe we should start a thread sometime to post redraws on.

@sageinthemeadow She started a thread to post all her huevember pieces to, you should totally check it out later cause they’re really good! <3

@sageinthemeadow Seriously though, I never not know what to draw. I was talking to my sister (Starry night) and realized it’s probably because I’m so tired. I might try to redraw something from an older sketchbook though. (I love doing that. It’s so fun)

Oohhh a landscape?? That’s so cool! I really admire people who do landscapes. Sometime I…[Read more]

@sageinthemeadow Yeah, Kinda? Interesting. *has yet to get sketchbook out..* *looks at sketchbook* *sweating* I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DRAW?? :O (this never happens to me)

.. what are you drawing, Sage?

@sageinthemeadow That’s cool! Have you ever tried acrylic paint before? Because I’m curious how gouache compares to acrylics.

@sageinthemeadow OOOooooooo That’s so cool! I’ve been wanting to try gouache for months now. What do you think about them so far?

@sageinthemeadow OoohhhhhHh Paint! What kind? (I’m not drawing, but I’m about to get my sketchbook out.)

@blueberry Okay, great! Thanks!

@h-jones Aww, thanks Heather. I think you are a pretty fantastic artist yourself.

@sageinthemeadow Bahaha, yeah I don’t think about it anymore, but when I first met you I always thought of my character.  I’ve heard about the mirror trick before, but for some reason I never think to do it while I’m…[Read more]

Hello everyone!

Welcome back to another edition of “Oh No! The Guildmaster is Late!” Subtitled: I Had a Very Busy Weekend.

Post last week’s results and this weeks goals! Don’t be shy!

My results from last week:

Well, first off, I created a Cosmere so I think that just takes the cake. *smiles hugely*

I didn’t do any of the other things on my l…[Read more]

@sageinthemeadow Yeah, I think you’re right. Every situation is going to be a little different.
