Weekly Challenge Theme Suggestions
by Tess @ Sun May 18, 2014 10:53 pm Attachment(s) [Reply]

Do you have an awesome theme idea for the Official Weekly Challenge?

Submit your ideas here, and we just might use them!

It's hard to keep coming up with new themes every week, but we know our members have great ideas! :)

A good challenge is something that will be popular with a lot of different people, so everyone will want to join in. Avoid themes which have too small of an audience (like a particular movie/tv show). We want to push people to draw something they don't usually draw, so try to 'think outside the box'!


Please note:
Since different members might end up suggesting the same ideas, we will not be able to credit the author of each idea. So please only share your idea if you're happy to see it used without credit to you.

Glossary of words we often use in challenges:

OC/Original Character - an original/unique design for a human or animal (or imaginary species) that you came up with yourself, or which someone else drew for you to use.

fursona - an animal character that you use to represent yourself. It might look kind of like you, or it might look like your personality turned into physical features (e.g. if you're an energetic person your fursona might be brightly colored)

persona - a human character that you use to represent yourself. It might look kind of like you in real life, or it might look like the kind of person you feel like on the inside - will it be dark and gloomy, or bright and bubbly? That's up to you!

Note: If the challenge asks you to use a fursona/persona/OC and you don't have one, you can use a CS pet instead!

For some reason, I always get the words "icing" and "frosting" mixed up.

i dont even want to know the timer on this atm ;w;

i got a new tablet for christmas!! i don't celebrate today but it's been really fun watching everyone have fun, and i hope the rest of the weekends will be just as wonderful for everyone <3 love you all!!

eko. @ Fri Dec 26, 2025 9:36 am

this is so good agh!!! i love the colors you used to shade the fur, it makes it look so soft and cozy! obsessed with ur art as always <3

thank you!! the best choice i ever made was forcing myself out of the "you need to shade with a dark color" type of thinking. everyone should shade with pastels >:3

sharky @ Fri Dec 26, 2025 11:07 am

    oooh look at him!! what a cutie!!
    I absolutely love the way you rendered every part of this,, it has such a soft and homely feel that i can't describe with words. Its been such a joy to see you slowly progress through this - you've really improved in your shading the past few years, months even, and i can't wait to see what you go on to do ^^
    Go create plenty more pretty pieces wit your new tablet!!! <3

by buoy @ Sun Dec 07, 2025 3:21 pm [Reply]

using oekaki has such a crazy learning curve :shock: felt adventurous tonight to try a different art program and i think that's enough adventure for the rest of my life wow. mad respect to anyone who mainly draws in oekaki i don't know how you do it!!!! but yeah here's one of my 2018 staff dogs having a fun time in the snow; happy holidays to everyone from us!

buoy @ Sun Dec 07, 2025 3:22 pm

Amorii @ Sun Dec 07, 2025 3:29 pm

Bestie!!! You did amazing! I am obsessed with the warm vibes this painting gives off even though it takes place in a winter wonderland. Love the brushstrokes in the snow and the lighting! Well done <3

CowberryMilkshake @ Sun Dec 07, 2025 6:46 pm

WOAH THIS IS SO GOOD!?! Everything about it is just AMAZING! You did a fabulous job on this, she looks so beautiful! :D

by the fire
by meowygolucky @ Sun Dec 07, 2025 5:37 am [Reply]

i figured out how to make my drawing tablet work better with the oekaki! it seems to get "stuck" sometimes and make me change settings i didnt want to (i kept getting in a loop of picking a colour, then moving my pen and having the colour change), but it was fun drawing this anyways. i liked focusing on the details. the time is probably way off because i left it open while i slept a few times...oops :oops:

i drew my favourite nick pet for this one! i gave her a little scarf because i thought it would be cute.

CowberryMilkshake @ Sun Dec 07, 2025 6:42 pm

This is so adorable! You drew her so well! :D

Decided to participate in my first Oekaki challenge! I immediately knew which pet I wanted to draw for this one.
Still figuring out how limbs work, anatomy is ever so mysterious...

Thank you guys so much for all the appreciation! I am glad that so many people enjoy what I put out there, even if it is few and far between. <3
