Drawing and painting competition?

Since we have photoshop and pixel cars etc competitions, should we have a drawing and painting competition?

We could have a different topic each time like, draw and tune a Mazda Rx7 FD3S or design a concept car.

Ive noticed there might not be too many people here who are into drawing but im sure if people had a go it could be good practice developing their skills, I know I would love a drawing competition and maybe Jacoja would agree?

Votes!

I would enter, but I won't win. Good thing is seeing what you can improve on.

You could say 5 against 1; I only voted no for the sake of not voting yes :P

Gah, I thought I had a 'maybe' option, whoops :lol:

Ill think up a topic that should be fun for everyone, rather than just serious fullas like me.

Making a drawing comp, not a painting comp.

Hey why not? Some people in this century still paint.

Well they're pretty differnet, I think you'd have to make two seperate competitions.

Nah I think they should both be in the same comp. There won't be many entrants to start with, so splitting us into two groups would just make it worse.

is this only hand drawn, or can it be digital too, as in using a graphics tablet and a pen or even a mouse

@Ibi: It would probably be all hand drawn by pencil and paper, without the use of photoshop (or something simular to photoshop). Though drawing with one of those crazy electronic pen things, I’m not sure.

Would digitally editing a hand drawn picture be accepted as well? Because it would be cleaning up messy lines, filling in white spots, etc.

Editing a hand-drawn sketch? That would defeat the whole purpose of the competition.

Yep I agree. All entries should be hand drawn/painted only, with no digital editing.

Ill try and get a basic list of rules sorted out and a good topic.

Adjusting levels/ brightness related proporties to a minor degree should be acceptable just for tidying up the drawing as it is hard to get a tidy photo or scan of a drawing (In my case at least) But I don't see actual editing of lines etc beign acceptable.

It sounds fitting that any digital drawings done by hand movements only e.g. one of those digital drawing pad things should be acceptable, but then it is harder to see what might have actually been edited illegally. I am unsure weather this should be allowed.

I think paintings should also be included if they follow the hand movements rule and the topic just so the minority that do paint can be included.

Any topic suggestions?
