Graphics for Land of Art Phase 21 Challenge 01-09

[beelikej]

Uh-oh, Livejournal changed their photo-album lay-out and interface. I don't like change, so it will take some time to get used to all the new bits. All functionality still seems to be intact, so I hope the 14,000+ images I archived over the years are safe.

I'm currently in the middle of landofart Phase 21 and instead of waiting until the end (in December), I figured I'd already start sharing the graphic designs I created to far. Included fandoms are: Orphan Black, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural, the Witchter. Enjoy.
(FYI: most of the graphics are clickable for full size)

Challenge 1 - Inspiration Representation
Create templates for icons or sigtags, then people can request their personalised version.
I made 8 sigtag templates with the themes: Lens Flare, Outer Space, Patterned, Seasonal, Weather
1. 2.
3. 4.
5. 6.
7. 8.

I received 25 requests, here are some examples of the sigtags with names/teams I made. I love playing with typography:

Challenge 2 - Multi-Shape Madness
Your art must have multiple shapes. They can be multiple of the same shape, or multiple different shapes.
I made 2 headers and 2 wallpapers:









Challenge 3 - And Scene
Find one scene, create up to three different graphics using that one scene. Types: Picspams (min of 8 images), Headers (800x300), Bookmark (300x800), Panorama (500x100, cut into 5 icons), Posters (500x700)

Scene 1 Fandom: CSI NicknGreg
Graphics Used: Header, Bookmark, Poster
Art Below: (I really liked how the iconic line changes tone depending on the angle of the scene (and the look in their eyes,haha)



Scene 2 Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Graphics Used: Bookmark, Poster, Picspam
Art Below:




Scene 3 Fandom: Supernatural
Graphics Used: Panorama, Picspam, Header
Art Below:







Challenge 4 - When We Were Young
Create art using characters that are kids (0-17 years old).
I made 5 sets of Comment Banners [questions, squee, renaissance, steampunk, golden ticket art]

1 = Charlotte (Orphan Black)




2 = Kira (Orphan Black)




3= Sam Winchester (Supernatural)




4= Dean Winchester (Supernatural)




5= Buffy Summers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)





Challenge 5 is Secret Santa, I didn't sign up for that one, because both giving and receiving anonymous art make me nervous.

Challenge 6 - Halloween Battle (Round 1)
There are 8 battles between halloween themes, you create art for your favorite theme out of the two that are up against each other.
I chose coloring pages for each theme:)

BATTLE 1: Frankenstein or His Monster vs Ghosts > GHOSTS


BATTLE 2: MummieS vs Skeletons > SKELETONS


BATTLE 3: Vampires vs Werewolves > VAMPIRES


BATTLE 4: Witches vs Zombies > WITCHES


BATTLE 5: Carved Pumpkins vs Desserts/Drinks > PUMPKINS


BATTLE 6: Costumes vs Decorations > COSTUMES


BATTLE 7: Cauldrons vs Haunted House > CAULDRONS


BATTLE 8: Fog vs Tombstones > TOMBSTONES


Challenge 7 - Facial Features
Create art using features on the face of characters
I made 7 icons and 1 sigtag:






Challenge 8 is Seasonal Teamwork, a long running multiple fandom challenge, in which my team SteamPunk works together to create a 24 graphic designs, based on episodes 1-24 of different tv show seasons. Deadline is in December:)

Challenge 9 - Texturized
This challenge is all about textures/overlays. Each member can submit two textures, every member can then make one piece of art using those textures.
I made 18 TumblrGraphics. My own personal challenge was to not use text, but focus on the texture and experiment with negative/empty space (instead of filling that with text as I usually do). With the first few I struggled to restrain myself, but it got easier along the way to really just play with the image:)



















The deadline for this challenge is Dec. 1; should any more textures be submitted, and I have time to play with them, I'll update this post:)


Challenge 10 is a Scavengerhunt where you collect or create specific fandom related images before November 15. I will start on that next week. To be continued...

I'm off to London for a long weekend of theatre (Shakespeare! RHLSTP!). What are your plans for the weekend?
