Challenge 5 Due Date

Ryan suggested that a due date would be a good idea for these things... or else we'll just let 'em stretch out indefinitely.
So we were thinking this should be due by the end of our next Lab Day... then we'll have 3 weeks off until the next challenge. So, for those of us who would rather scan blog posts than read them:

The End of the Next Lab Day

Luke Skywalker vs The Universe

Art Challenge!

Hey everyone... I have personally never been around for an art blog challenge... I thought I would just go ahead and throw something out there if anyone was interested in fooling around with it on Lab Day.

Fan art crossover! Draw a pre-existing character of your choice with some element from another SEPARATE universe. This could be two characters.. or a character and a prop... or a character from one universe in a costume from another... however you want to interpret it!

The Messengers

Here's a quick painting from last lab day. I've always loved Kekai Kotaki's artwork, especially from the Guild Wars/Guild Wars 2 concept art, so I was inspired to try something in that avenue.

I'd like to take another stab at it and make some new custom brushes to get alot of the hard-edged shapes that he often employs...but that's for another time and a longer painting session.

Room Cleaning Biker Genie!

Hey, finally got back after a long, sad, and exhausting trip, (even caught a bad cold or something along the way) but was able to try to de-stress and finish my Genie, so here's the finished piece - the title says it all ;) I'd like to thank everyone who helped me along with this here in no particular order:

- My nephew and brother-in-law for letting me reference/photograph them for this
- Rich for letting me borrow the sweet axe that now became a vacuum
- Matt M for the nefarious vest
- Reagan for the vintage authentic lunchbox
- Mike and Patrick for vintage authentic lamps
- Johnny D for the muscles
- anyone else I forgot in the insanity :D

You all make my job possible!
