Hey Folks,
Just a heads up that we’re going to be doing something a little different with Critique Arena this Thursday!
The prompt turned out to be way more challenging than we anticipated, so we are changing up our regular format to better help our students!
Instead of voting for the Top 16, we decided to do a special critique session to focus on strategies for developing strong concepts.
While we all love a good competition, we feel like this is a great opportunity to take a deep dive into one of the most important aspects of illustration.
So, rather than narrowing it down to the Top 16, we’ll be opening up the playing field and picking 16 lucky contenders (maybe more!) from the entire pool of 80+ entries. It could be you!
As professional illustrators we’ve all been there. Sometimes it’s just really tough to nail a concept, but that’s what your agents, publishers and clients want. Your ability to translate prompts to successful illustrations in real life is key to your success.
We know you all enjoy our regular format and we don’t make this decision lightly, but we’re sure this is a Critique Arena you won’t want to miss!
Hope to see all of you there!
Will, Lee and Jake
PS: We did choose TWO awesome winning illustrations and they’ll be unveiled on Thursday!
