aika 23 Report post Posted February 19, 2012 Pretty interesting Idea If i am not busy I will enter But isn't submission date too soon it's like only 10 to 12 day's are remaining. About the rep thing Did you consult with Chek or CC about this ? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted February 19, 2012 About the rep thing Did you consult with Chek or CC about this ? Reps can be given out as prizes, I think. I hosted a contest once involving reps as prizes, and the mods didn't complain, so I think it's OK. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Misaki-chan 164 Report post Posted February 19, 2012 I'm just wondering if I could use my tablet to do this or if I would have to use real paint. =X But this is interesting. I can't wait to see the submissions~ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kirite 23 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 Is it okay if I just take a photo of my painting? I always seem to have trouble scanning oil paints. I think I paint a bit too thick at times and it never dries...ever xD. If you want I can just paint a brand new one. It seems a bit more fair to have the same time limit as everyone else. Is there a specific medium I have to paint with? I just bought some acylics that I don't mind using but I'm not most comfortable with them. Are people just painting digitally? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeyra 260 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 Backgrounds... My worst enemy... ... Maybe I'll give it a shot. Probably not though- it's hard to find someone worse at drawing landscapes. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Smiles 105 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 9 - 12 days are reasonable, person can come up with two small paintings. Kirite and Misaki: You have old paintings? You can take photo, as along as it was resized. Any mediums can be used, watercolour, acrylic, mixed media, drawing etc, as they are hand drawn. And, no digital paint... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kirite 23 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 Cool beans, I'll try to swing by to get myself a canvas. Or maybe I'll practice my gouache...my God gouache is like impossible for me to use D<. I realise after my 5th painting that blending is like impossible xD. Solid colours can be lovely once I realise how to "cut" the picture into shapes. I love how bright the colours can get! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Smiles 105 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 Goauche is a bit hard, I did try before in my diploma years, it's not my favorite until I went to learn oil painting. Thinking of it, Goauche isn't that bad at all. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valkyrie 72 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 Oh man... Must it be painted? If there's one thing I'm terrible at, it's painting. Paint just don't work for me. But I can do calligraphy using Chinese ink. Is that counted? I done plenty for my school once. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Smiles 105 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 It's not counted, but if use Chinese medium to create painting with colours it's counted. There's medium Chinese use to paint, you're welcome to use it. You can see medium in big popular bookstore, they did sell them for Chinese paintings. If you know how to write and handle the brush, you can create Chinese painting. and we will have Chinese painting vs Western panting. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaze-rei 28 Report post Posted February 21, 2012 Is something like this counted? I like painting but I prefer Chinese painting to be honest. I lived in China for some time and I can't get the culture out of me. So is this kind of painting counted: Southern River Saving you the trouble first before you click it. It's a Chinese painting of a river but it's not done in colour. It's all black. Is it counted? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
