✏ Sketch Off Contest - Edition 2: The Club of Antiheroes

in #art7 years ago (edited)

After summoning fabled canine creatures in the first Sketch Off, this time we shall draw a our own hands with a twist, so to speak. Skill will triumph over chance in this gamble. Ain't that a full house. Welcome to The Club of Antiheroes!

Since I can not send you out into the woods blindly I have prepared some samples in my creative kitchen. Remember I used the suit of Hearts, but you will be using the suit of Clubs so remember to go for more blacks.

What I am looking for in your contest entry is something like this:

Such a shame that Donald spilled all of his Grandmother's special raspberry jam all over these cards. What a mess!

Drawn by yours truly. As you can see we've got a fairly diverse Cast of Characters going on here with Super Duck, Harley Quinn, Vol'Jin and Optimus Prime. Feel free to branch out into whatever fictional universe you see fit. The style and colors of your design should fit together with the black Suit of Clubs! While I imagine the cards that I have drawn to be more in the "chaotic good" realm, yours should probably be "chaotic evil", but since we are playing with #Antiheroes you can interpret it a bit more loosely and have fun. Don't be afraid to be more creative than I! You don't need to draw four cards. It can be just one. Just to be sure, this is the suit: ♧ ♧ ♧ ♧

It also helps your chances if you include at least one process picture like this excellent example from the previous #YearoftheDog Sketch Off by @labeilleneigeux :)

And it certainly doesn't hurt your odds if you include an animated gif or video of your process (I realise this is easier for digital work) like this one:

Though ideas are already running in my head, I'm gonna have an extremely busy week, so I probably won't be able to make them on time for the contest :P
But good luck to everyone, I can't wait to see all of the wonderful creations!!

Thanks!

That'd be great ^^

Really sleep deprived, but it was worth it :D
Of course I couldn't sit back on that one, no matter how much I tried to convince myself :P

Woah... I'm no artist, but I recognise awesomeness when I see it.

This is cool! I actually made my own set of playing cards when I was 11 or so. Looking forward to seeing the entries!

oh that's sick! Do you still have it?
What about magic cards, got any of those still?
Cheers ^^

If I ever remember the name of my old deviantart account I'll go look for them. I have a bunch at home in the old country but thery're mainly for decorative purposes.

yeah deviantart doesn't delete anything. It might be easier to search for the name of images though if that's easier to remember! :)
