A game for artists (newbies, professionals, amateurs, even doodlers) who might be struggling with art block!


Here's how it works:
One person posts a word—as detailed, obscure, long, OR as simple, short, vague as they want!

In response, the next person will "claim" the word by replying to the thread to say that they're drawing.

When the piece is done, they will reply to the thread again with the finished piece.

No one will post on the thread while the last poster is in "drawing" status.

To avoid the game going inactive, I want to specify that this is mostly designed for doodles or quick arts pieces (if you are professionally trained and/or can make complex pieces fast, go for it). This way, no one will be in "drawing" status so long that it holds up the thread.

The maximum amount of time you can be in drawing status is 1 hour—but aim for things can be completed in 30 minutes, hour long pieces should be outliars, NOT the norm.


Example:
Person 1: "Solitude"

Person 2: "Got it, drawing!"

Person 2, second reply: (finished piece) "Treetops"​



First word:

Fragile


Have fun! No judgement regarding skill, time, colors, brushes, medium, or anything else. Pieces can be as dark and gritty as this forum allows, too. Go ham.

Done! Of course I break my own rule on my first turn. Sorry, someone would not leave me alone no matter how many times I said I was busy, then I couldn't get back to my phone to post this. Honestly surprised no one skipped me lol

Anyway. Mothman vibes. Butterflyman?

Dang, just a bit late on the drawing! Closer to an hour though! This is helping me learn to draw faster, I guess. Also @Andarna if you want this guy as a character, take him. He's yours now. Drew him with the lasso and symmetry tools mostly.

It seems I was thinking of a different flower. Waterlilies have a lot more petals. It still turned out pretty well I think.

Claimed! I want to preface that I will be using this to finish this work in progress piece here, not starting with a fresh slate like usual. This is barely done anyway, so it should be fine.
