***DAILY-DRAW FEBRUARY DISCUSSION THREAD: FINISHED!!!!!***

CogNoman · **Posted:** Thu Jan 27, 2011 4:13 am

It's February, folks! Time to get off that comfy petard and draw!

The "February Draw-Every-Day Challenge" from Sketch Tavern has now spread, like every good disease, and landed at Satellite Soda with a new name:

Daily-Draw February!!!

The Rules:
1. For the month of February, every contestant must draw and post at least one image a day every single day of the month. That's 28 days.
2. You can post more than 1 image each day, but they don't 'carry over'. (so if you post 2 drawings on Monday, you still have to post at least one on Tuesday)
3. You can post sketches, finished art, works-in-progress, comic strips, anything, as long as it was done that day.
4. If you miss a day, there isn't TOO much shame in that, but there is HUGE shame (huge!) in posting 'old' sketches as your daily entry. The point of this challenge is to DRAW every day (not merely to post something each day), so the drawings MUST be new. A new stick-man is better than an old masterpiece.
5. Crappy sketches are infinitely better than no sketches at all!

And for the truly Hardcore:
We're gonna have a scoreboard keeping track of who posted on each day and who didn't throughout the month, like this:

Person A: 1--2--3--4--5--
Person B: 1--2------4--5--
Person C: 1------3--4--5--

Being on the scoreboard is optional. If you DO want to be on the scoreboard, though, you have to post your images before Midnight every day. If you post late by even a minute, it will count as a "miss" for that day. (If Midnight isn't a good daily deadline for you, you can also use a different time of day as your daily deadline.) We'll get the scoreboard set up soon; if you'd like to be on it, just send me a pm or say so in this thread.

So yeah! If you feel you've got the stones, just set up a thread in this February section and, on February 1st, get posting! Welcome to February!

This sounds amazing!!!

Questions:

Where do we sign up cognoman?

Do we post in this thread? what do we do cognoman?

Can i invite friends to participate with us?

Sign me up!

CogNoman · **Posted:** Thu Jan 27, 2011 5:39 am

Haha, well, welcome aboard Fennewalde. Fenn is a former Sketch Taverner too, for anybody who can't see through those mock-innocent questions of his.

But to answer the questions: We'll use this thread as a Sign-Up thread and then on February 1st we'll all start up our own February threads in this sub-forum and post our first images in our own threads. And then we just go from there, and try to keep it going.

And of course, yes, telling friends is awesome.

Wednesday · **Posted:** Thu Jan 27, 2011 10:31 pm

Hi my name is Wednesday and i'd like to sign up.

Neil · **Posted:** Thu Jan 27, 2011 11:03 pm

I'm your man.

CogNoman · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 12:09 am

Whoa, so yeah, I guess it's on!

Thanks very much to Igo for setting up a section of the board for this. Don't worry, we'll make good use of it!

Wednesday: Awesome to have you aboard! The more of us who do this, the more motivational and creative energy there is to draw upon, heh. So if you have any questions or anything, feel free to voice 'em. The Feb Challenge is a personal challenge type of thing, so when we get going, you can post pretty much anything in your thread: sketches, finished pieces, works-in-progress, anything - as long as it was worked on that day.

Neil: Haha, and hi to you too. Neil's another former Sketch Taverner - so yeah, it's nice to see you on a forum again, sir. Start limbering up that wrist...your're gonna need it come February. (for drawing)

So that's 4 of us: Fenn, Wednesday, Neil and I. It's gonna be a good month (a hard month...but a good one). And yeah, if you guys know of anybody who might want to party down with a buncha radical daily-arty folk for a month, heh, by all means, send 'em here; 'cause it looks like the February Challenge is on at Satellite Soda. :!:

lightbombmike · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 3:03 am

I've never completed one of these before, but it wouldn't be a February if I didn't at least crash and burn miserably so that I can wallow in my broken promises. Sign me up!

And good on you Cog and Igo for making this happen. Talk about a double blast from the past!

I'm so in! :smilebf:

ihearthorchata · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 4:53 am

hai gaiz! i want in too plz. kthnxbai.

CogNoman · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 10:06 am

Ah! Those warm, haggard old faces look familiar, haha. Mike, Dan, Horchata - good to see you fellers!
And please, this time, remember to get yourselves some good staplers so we can all staple our own faces back on to our heads after we rock our own faces off when we look at our own art and see how good we are by the end of the month, heh.

...hm. Already beginning to lose my mind. That's a good sign!

NHOJ · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 10:14 am

AND MY AXE!

EDIT: Quick question. Will this have a similar format to the Tavern jams? As in, we each post our pics in our own separate threads? Or will we be submitting the pics into one, consolidated thread?

I believe there are also a bunch of former Sketch Taverners floating out there in cyberspace who might be up for this too, if we have a place to run it.

-
I registrated here immediately just because i heared "SketchTavern" - word.
I will try to enter this "February Forever" - thing because i so wanted to do this when SketchTaver was alive. :oopsbf:

Ahh SketchTavern. I so missed your warm fireplace.

Individual threads. Just like Beggars Canyon back home. Although a mega thread would be INSANELY funny.

And no, i don't care if you can bullseye womp rats in your T-16 back in Ireland. (that are no bigger than two meters wide)

NHOJ · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 12:20 pm

Well then, that's what I get for excitedly signing up and posting without even reading Conor's original post. HURR DURR.

Also, I could totally shoot a womp rat from, like, a million miles away miles. Totes. WOMP WOMP.

Sure I will take the challenge :)

I'm with Mike! If I'm gonna be unable to finish what I start, I gotta start somewhere :)

zombiezach · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 12:52 pm

I'm in.

Hardsloth · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 3:18 pm

F. Walde III, I heard you wanted to use me as bait to get Wade Furlong to sign up. Looks like you got your wish.
Next time muster the courage to ask me yourself. I can see you on Skype, even as I type this.

EDIT: Also, whoever decided to rename the competition 'Daily-Draw February' needs to be hit with a pool ball in a sock. From this moment on I'm calling it the

FEBRUARY FACEMELTER

JKort · **Posted:** Fri Jan 28, 2011 3:24 pm

I would be interested. However as caveat, I have a baby arriving in the middle of the month so I might get distracted.

I've missed this.

This is my literal second post in this forum. I registered here on a whim so I might as well go all out and do this on a whim as well.

I'm in. :smile:

So, no other rules than one thing a day? Nice. My imageshack account will hate me.

I'll eat your face off you dick! All I heard was "We had thsi thing called "February Draw-Every-Day" and I shortened it. SUE ME! All in favor of "FEBRUARY-FACEMELTER!!!" show some hands and I'll make it so.

By the by, welcome to SatelliteSoda you art junkies. I thought Conor was fucking with me when he said how popular this thing is, you guys shouldve done the MARVEL-TRON contest, FAIL!
