Fanart Prompt Challenge Discussion

Just a reminder that we're now passed the half way mark for this prompt! Anyone else interested in participating in this one? (I know it's probably difficult for a lot of people as they're now in school)

StardustSoldier · **Reply #301 on:** October 02, 2020, 07:13:24 PM

I'll participate. I have an in-progress drawing for this one.

Just a reminder that there's only a week left in the prompt if anyone else wants to participate!

Alright, the Sept/Oct prompt is now finished. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Before I mention what the last prompt will be, I would like to once again open up discussion on possible prompts for 2021. This year we were fortunate that Iris dumped so many ideas to use, but I would like to try and get more broader suggestions. If you have an idea that you think would be interested in seeing different people draw or just have had an idea but were too lazy to motivate yourself into actually trying, then please let me know! I should also finish by saying that due to the number of prompts in the year, there's the possibility that not all ideas will end up being used. Looking forward to seeing some creative options to choose from!

Alright, now onto the final prompt for the year!
Nov/Dec: Unlikely friendship: Which two characters would likely never get along? In your imagination, they are bffs!

What sort of crazy friendships will we see? Sharptooth and Littlefoot's mother? Mr. Threehorn and literally anyone else? Let's see what you come up with!

StardustSoldier · **Reply #304 on:** November 03, 2020, 12:33:03 PM

I thought of one idea already.

Unlikely scenario: Come up with something ridiculous and/or random that the characters are doing; something you'd probably never see them doing in the official series.

I'll try and brainstorm to see if I can come up with some more.

Funny as I essientally had a fic with a singing and dancing Mr. Threehorn.

StardustSoldier · **Reply #306 on:** November 03, 2020, 03:19:26 PM

Oh? Which fic? Was it ever released? I'd love to read about that.

Goldenwind · **Reply #307 on:** November 03, 2020, 03:33:54 PM

Spike's Misadventure. XD I posted like a year ago in the fan fic section.

Flathead770 · **Reply #308 on:** November 05, 2020, 05:52:38 PM

I'm always up for some wacky antics so that just might work for a possible prompt! Thanks for the suggestion Stardust.

I FEEL SO CALLED OUT RIGHT NOW.

Hehehehe.

Prompt Idea: Draw the gang in an AU of your choice. Will you draw them as Space explorers? As dragons? Vampires? Dinosaurs living in Ancient Egypt? Who knows only you can know. Bonus points if you show how different the Great Valley looks in your AU.

StardustSoldier · **Reply #311 on:** November 06, 2020, 10:26:02 AM

^Ooh, that's a good one.

I thought of a couple more:
- Horror scene; draw something Halloween-related or otherwise spooky.
- Unlikely encounter. Draw two or more characters who were never shown interacting in official canon (or did so only minimally). How would these characters interact if they met each other?

I also notice this year and the previous had "Draw an OC." I would love to be able to give that one a shot next year.

Ducky123 · **Reply #312 on:** November 27, 2020, 02:50:49 AM

The OC prompt might be the only one I would try to participate in (maybe).

Here's a boring but still funny idea for a prompt:

Swap colour patterns between two or more characters of their choice (with appropriate reactions to the sudden change)

Flathead770 · **Reply #313 on:** November 29, 2020, 03:23:14 PM

Thanks everyone for the additional suggestions.

We already did a crossover type thing earlier this year so this idea might be a little too similar to do again. Still a good idea though, might be able to do something with it.

Those could potentially work! I like the spooky idea. As for unlikely encounter, looks like I'm doing a Rhett and Shorty drawing

I'll have to think on the OC one again. It worked really well the first year it was implemented but not so much the following year. Could always be on the table though.
The colour swap might be an interesting one as well. Could get some funky looking characters

Ducky123 · **Reply #314 on:** November 29, 2020, 04:14:10 PM

Oh here's another one that could be funny.

EPIC FAIL!

Draw a character(s) of your choice as they experience a moment they'd rather forget. Whether tripping over a root in front of everyone or being caught doing something embarrassing, nobody is safe from the occasional fail!

Ah yes, a Sucky prompt

Fails are always fun haha

Just want to also give a reminder that we are now half way through the final prompt of the year! I'm hoping to be able to come up with something now that University is starting to relax a bit as this semester finishes up.

Here is the prompt for those who don't know:
Nov/Dec: Unlikely friendship: Which two characters would likely never get along? In your imagination, they are bffs!

Mumbling · **Reply #316 on:** December 05, 2020, 06:51:47 AM

Some good ideas here. I'd contribute, but unlike last year my brain is one big fuzzy mess at the moment, so I don't really have anything substantial.

I do wish to take part in this month's prompt still. Hope to get a chance for that during my Christmas break, when things have hopefully settled in my personal life.

Flathead770 · **Reply #317 on:** December 17, 2020, 03:48:36 PM

Just another reminder that we're now down to 2 weeks left in the year and for the prompt as well. Would like to see at least one submission!

I'm gonna see if I can start on something to hopefully join in as well now that finals are almost wrapped up for me.

StardustSoldier · **Reply #318 on:** December 22, 2020, 11:46:21 PM

I have an in-progress drawing for "Unlikely friendship". Hopefully before the end of it the year I'll have it submitted. ^^

Mumbling · **Reply #319 on:** December 28, 2020, 02:53:00 PM

I still want to join in this prompt as well, but haven't found the right moment to work on it yet. Any chance we can get a couple weeks extension?
