Get Inspired - Weekly Figure Drawing & Art Jams' Journal (original) (raw)

| | Wednesday, June 27th, 2007 11:29 am - Another topic silvereelve I suck at making up topics, but... because we haven't had a new topic in a month I'm going to go ahead and post one. The topic is Ninja's which are the opposite of pirates, kinda. (comment on this) Sunday, May 20th, 2007 9:48 pm - New topic! silvereelve Okay so it looks like no one's added a new topic in almost a month, so I thought I'd try and revive things a little. The only theme I could come up with is:Pirates!Any kind of pirate will do. Have fun and share what you've come up with.

So I though I'd propose a new jam for this week. To even out the DC and because I'm itching to draw Spidey, the topic is The Avengers.Anyone who has ever been a member of any of the Avenger teams.

The Black Queen is the figure-head of the British- Japanese empire known as the GBNR.The GBNR are one of 3 super-states at constant warfare with each other. It is the hundredth year since the forming of these states. Our queen is a divine leader as well as a military commander.Her appearance should bring together Victorian and traditional Japanese aesthetics but also take into account the 100 years that have passed since the joining of these two cultures.Now... concept!

The Justice League!Really, I'm just mirroring the topic already set over at the Drawing Board: http://www.drawingboard.org/viewtopic.php?t=53557I'm hoping that will give newer members an idea of how art jams work, and maybe a little inspiration too. Any character who has ever been in the league is fair game! :D Post sketches, WIP, finals, etc (4 comments | comment on this) Wednesday, March 14th, 2007 12:49 pm - Featured Art Jams cowkitty LJ ate my long post. >_< Short version: Everyone can post now. Please post pictures or links to other art jams. Here's a couple.CHOW #63 - Guest Host:D-BAKER. Topic: Iorek ByrnisonIorek Byrnison is the exiled king of the Panserbjørne (armoured bears). He forged his own armour from sky iron. His armour is his soul. Like all Panserbjørne, Iorek follows a very strict code of contract, and will in no situation betray a promise he has made. He possesses incredible strength, and like many of his kind is an expert smith.

It's been a terribly long time, and I'm sorry I let it go for so long. I love Livejournal, and I really want there to be an active, fun artist community on my friend's list again. With that in mind, we're going to change up the format a bit here:Not only will I start posting model photos again for reference on Mondays, but we'll also do an art jam once or twice a week (Wed and Fri perhaps?). What's an art jam? It's when a mod posts a subject or character as a theme, and everyone does their own artistic interpretation of it. (Remember the Bat Girl Meme? :D)The art can be a sketch, doodle, finished work, animation-- whatever. Have fun, and be creative. :DIf you have any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, etc on this topic or anything else in Figure_Muse, feel free to post. :D (1 comment | comment on this) Monday, November 8th, 2004 9:31 pm - Technical Difficulties.

With the new activity in this community, I've been asked one question more than another:**What's this about permission to post? Do I need it?**Currently only mods post the photos (two a week) so we can keep it a bit focused. We may change this in the future once the community grows more and we see what direction it wants to go in. ^__^; Basically, we create the threads, and all community members can post in the threads. You do not need permission to comment.Remember all members can comment and show their work in the threads. Basically, reply to the photo you're using. :)If you have any more questions, comments, suggestions, recommended photos, etc, feel free to reply here!Thanks for joining! :D (1 comment | comment on
