A.R.C News!!!
EVERYONE MUST READ
I think in about a month I am going to hold a audition, with a few requirements and if needed a few sample prompts to gather ideas from. Basically it will be a full-body image, with a required background. I will lay out what I am looking for in beginners/intermediate/advanced, and so you will basically have a rubric to look at and attempt for whatever group you wish to be in. Everyone will be highly encouraged to go through with it, but if they do not try out and draw something for it... I'm thinking the highest they can be in is intermediate (if I have already placed you in advanced, you will be bumped down).
Think of this more like a contest, or an audition for a play. They have deadlines. This, to will have a deadline. I'm thinking I'll accept entries for this particular group.... maybe 2 or 3 months total? Idk... Haven't really planned much.
AS FOR ROLEPLAYS: It is time we get a few started. Got any ideas? I'm thinking of a feral forest rp- very simple, with barely any strict plot ideas. I'm kinda in a winter mood... how about something wintery? Like the forest is stuck in a perpetual season of winter. Perhaps a group is trying to find out why?
Also: Just because you request to be in intermediate or advanced, does not mean you are snobbish or rude!I value your opinion and ability to grade your own art and realize you are advanced/intermediate/beginner. Besides, I asked you to be honest, yes?

Type of RPs you like: most of the RPs I've done have been human, but animal would be fun to draw

My deviantART What group would you place yourself in? Um, I would like to be in Intermediate. I consider my art to be somewhere in the middle, skill-wise. (ick, that sounds snobbish

) But I won't make a fuss if I'm put into Beginners (definitely won't make a fuss if put into Advanced, but that'll be a stretch XD)
Any ideas to improve this club? none! This is flippin' awesome; I ♥ art RPs!!
Anything you want to add? Great job! Excited to start :3
I'll put you in intermediate! <3 I do like your art, but for advanced I'd like more detail in shading + backgrounds. I definitely think you are close to being in advanced, after seeing your most recent entry on your dA! If you can do stuff like that (especially in the upcoming audition) then you will be in advanced for sure. As far as tips for improvement (since you are a friend I will give you some- hope that doesn't offend you! it's the kindest gesture I know how to give in an art community such as this) I suggest you study anatomy of animals more. It's taken me a while but I finally have a good understanding of animal anatomy. Sometimes I ignore it though @___@ Also- do more with shading! Try more tones- don't just shade with one color, use many! Mess with textures, thick or thin fur... scales... that stuff!

What's your favorite color?
I find this question extremely hard to answer...
Let's say green for now
Type of RPs you like:
Pokemon! 
Seriously though, anything with animals and other fluffy critters
(I actually enjoy anime based RPs but I can't draw humans very well...)
RECENT Example of art:
Drawn on the 16th of Dec
(The most recent I have is just a lazy coloured-in sketch OTL)
What group would you place yourself in?
Beginners...
My art style varies to much to be anything higher
Any ideas to improve this club?
Hmm, links to how-to-draw and other helpful links to improve skills?
Or a constructive criticism side-thread...?
Anything you want to add?
Just a heads up... My art varies a lot...
So what I might post will change randomly depending on my mood >>;
Sorry if this will bother anyone
My styles vary a lot too X3 These were both done on the same day:
viewtopic.php?f=34&t=392148viewtopic.php?t=392747I will put you in beginners for now... but with a little more (such as a bg, shading) I could easily see you in intermediate! So I highly suggest doing the audition when it is fully formulated. If you throw in shading and a background, you could be placed in intermediate <3

XclickX These are the most recent, with my tablet (that I just got)!...I actually need to work more on background, and this would be a good thing!
ya know, trees and bugs and water... What group would you place yourself in? intermediate...because I'm certainly NOT beginner. I think...Well, anyways, I'm always trying to improve, and I think I see more than the average bear. Just saying. Any ideas to improve this club? COLORRRRRRRRRR Anything you want to add? you are cute c: Oh, and don't click my DA tab in the siggy...whatever you do...'cause those are kinda old...And *looks around* I forgot how I got here!! D: So I'm kinda old!
Thank you thank you thank you for giving full-body images and shading on both! Intermediate for sure. And yes, improvement is one reason I made this club! Practicing in something like this is a great way to improve. I guarantee the beginners, if they stick with it, will eventually (soon, for most) move up and up to intermediate and perhaps advanced!
