ALRIGHT FOLKS, WE TRIED THIS EARLIER THIS YEAR AND THE RESPONSE WAS GREAT, SO I HOPE TO GET THE SAME KIND OF TURN OUT FOR THIS ONE!
YOU ARE TO TAKE THE WRITTEN DESCRIPTION OF THE CHARACTER IN THE PARAGRAPHS BELOW AND USE ONLY IT TO PORTRAY THE CHARACTER IN QUESTION. YOU WANT BOTH TO BE ACCURATE AND YOU WANT TO CREATE A DYNAMIC CHARACTER! REMEMBER, THE REST IS UP TO YOU...
THE DESCRIPTION:
"SHE STOOD FIRMLY ON THE GROUND, WHILE HER GREEN HAIR SWIRLED AROUND HER HEAD AS IF THERE WERE WIND THAT DID NOT EXIST. HER PETITE FORM SHOWED WELL IN A SKIN TIGHT SUIT OF BOTH GREEN AND GRAY, THE "V" COLLAR OF THE OUTFIT SHOWED A HINT OF CLEAVAGE. A CRACKLE OF GREEN ELECTRICITY POPPED AND HISSED AT HER GLOVED FINGERTIPS AS SHE PREPARED FOR THE ONCOMING BATTLE.
HER FACE INTENSE, HER EYES A NATURAL GREEN. AND UNDER HER RIGHT EYE THREE BLACK DOTS SAT IN A LINE HORIZONTALLY IN WHAT LOOKED LIKE A TRIBAL TATOO, UNDER HER LEFT TRAILED THREE BLACK LINES THAT SEEMED TO RADIATE FROM HER IRIS, AGAIN MUCH LIKE A TATOO. DARK GREEN, ALMOST BLACK LIPSTICK TRACED HER SNARLING MOUTH.
HER GREEN HIGH HEELED BOOTS DUG INTO THE ROCKY EARTH AT HER FEET, THE SEEMING WEIGHT OF THE MOMENT RESTED FIRMLY ON HER SHOULDERS. AND YET SHE STOOD READY, WILLING HER OPPONENT TO SHOW HIMSELF. SHE ALMOST BEGAN TO SAVOR THE IDEA."

Info The DSC is posted Daily Monday-Friday at the Outcast Studios Artwork Forum:
[link]Each weekend topic is open roughly 60 hours and then closed forever.
Entries: The goal of the DSC is to make you pick up your pencil everyday. Quality/Time are not the goals. If you only have time to draw a stick figure that's acceptable and encouraged.
No Critiques: Because the entries are often quick simple sketches it's unfair to the artist who's participating to be bombarded with comments about the "Guys hand is wrong" when that artist chose to spend his time on shadows for this sketch. So no critiques.
If YOU want a critique post your entry on your personal DA page for that.
Encouragement Encouraged: It's hard to take the time to do this on a regular basis so be sure to let the artist know when you see something you like.
