Weekly Art Challenge #24

Introduction

Weekly Art Challenge is a recurring event for the Art, Literature and Music forum wherein there is a new challenge for artists every week. The goal of the event is to encourage art and going outside the box by imposing interesting challenges and limitations. After a week, a poll will be up for everyone to vote to select the best entry. The winner with the most votes will receive a pretty little badge for bragging rights.

Also, please be sure to check out the previous challenge's thread.

 Rules

• A new challenge/theme will be posted up in a new thread every week.
• Participants are to follow the rules imposed by the challenge/theme. Any questions may be asked. However, I reserve the right to disqualify any entries that I feel do not meet the criterion.
• A challenge lasts for approximately a week. Deadline for all Weekly Challenges is strictly at 12:00AM, GMT +0, on Monday.
• Multiple entries are allowed, and each will be voted separately. The final score will be the total amount of votes all of the entries get.
• On the week after, a poll will be up in the same thread. Only one participant will win. In the case where there are more than one participant with equal votes, all winners will be rewarded.
• Poll for voting will be available from the submission deadline to Saturday, when the winner will be announced.
• The winner gets to call the theme/challenge for the following week. If the winner does not wish to do so, then I will come up with one.
• All forms of art are welcome.
• No need to register. Just start working on your entry right away if you've decided to participate.
• Post your entries in this thread. WIPs are encouraged, but please explicitly specify your final submission.
• There is absolutely no measurements coming from us on the completion of a piece. Whether a piece is complete for final submission or not, is entirely your own call. So don't be discouraged if you think you can only afford to doodle a couple lines. Anything is fine.
• Entries must be done completely from scratch by their respective participants. This means no pre-existing stock materials are allowed, regardless of the degree to which they have been altered. Whoever is caught intentionally violating this rule will be subject to the punishment stated in our Forum Rules regarding Credit Theft.
• Entries must be done within the week after the challenge has been issued. No previously done work is allowed. Entries violating this rule may be automatically disqualified without prior notice.

This week's Challenge

• All forms of art are welcome.
• Post your entries in this thread. WIPs are encouraged, but please explicitly specify your final submission.

Ooooh, hard topic. At least musically. I might have to draw this week!

Eh? A new challenge? Is the last one over already?

Yes, we're voting now! They usually last a week but the last two were longer because of IGMC.

Hmm, Antihero. Great topic, lol I have a brilliant idea for this one, pity I'm not the best artist. It's such a cool funny idea. XD

Do it anyway! It's not about being the best. It's about getting creative and improving yours skills and ideas, whatever the base level you are starting at may be.  :D

I'll PM You my idea.  ;)

Go nuts with whatever ideas and skills you have really :D we're here to do just that!

He robs the bad guys. No, he does not give to the poor.

Villains need prioritize when Burglarman is in town. Malice, revenge, and other villainous motives take a back seat when all your funds have disappeared and you're unable to pay rent, let alone buy arms for your henchmen.

@EvilEagles: Can I draw A character from DS resource pack?

OK, I love anti-heros and heroines~ Just done a quick sketch so far.



Really hope I have time to go back to this because I'm actually really in love with this character haha!

I thought of pirates when I thought of the word "Anti-Hero....So I drew a pirate lady. 

It not done just yet, but this time really want to have completely colored entry. Spent a good portion of the day sketching this one. 



The idea is a female pirate who saves the world, but at the same time stealing its treasures. As well as saving the day in a un-heroic way kinda.

I'm going to submit a drawing later this week. 

But--first, I'm going to start with a music entry. This piece is called "Things we really should not say."

It's revisiting the motif from the game I just put out and doing another variation on the theme. The game contains of really nothing but incompetent anti-heroes who preform very unbecoming actions and in an attempt to in fact, save the day, destroy every thing.

This theme is not only a musical representation of arguing, screwing the whole thing up, and failing to say the right thing (out of both anger and shyness); but developing friendship.

I'm going to participate for once so here is my entry!

I call it.... Up To No Good.

I enabled downloads so feel free to use this for your projects with proper credit of course!

A majority of my characters tend to be severely flawed as heroes. They often lack a sense of seriousness and bicker at each other despite being tangled up in very profound and difficult matters. It's usually their personal bonds that strengthen and propel them.

The epitome of that would be my character, Rhom. A very vulgar school teacher. He's loyal and charismatic but unorthodox, sardonic, and has an ego that is unrivaled. For lack of a brief description, when trouble hit the corridors of the academy, the scholar's robes literally had to come off, and he went on a rampage through the halls of the school. Why? Monsters were going to interfere with getting the last train home.

Reminds me of a certain Scotch lover here on the forums, Ms. Littlefish, lol. <3 He looks great!

Decided to change my entry, work in progress.

Really enjoying the entries so far :D

Update on my chickadee - gotten the lines and flat colours done. Shading shouldn't take too long - but for now here she is!

Here's my antihero, Gruntle Mcscar. He drinks a lot and sells his sword to the highest bidder. He does have standards though.
