Teen Challenge 58 : [Insomnia]

[a la bapsi]

saw that no one put up a new one, so here it is. D:

TEEN CHALLENGE 58

The Rules:
Anyone ages 13-19 may submit an entry at any time before the deadline. Please host your image on a remote image-hosting site instead of uploading it to the CA server. This makes it much easier to transfer it to the poll thread.


The Topic: Insomnia
A pretty open topic. Go Wild!


IMPORTANT
1. Add a border around your image with your name and the topic, like they do with the other of the week challenges.
2. Please do not use attachment manager, but outside host your image.
3. Mark your final as final

The Deadline:
Monday, February 1st.

P.S. When's the poll for #57 coming out?

i pm'd xabian about it but still dont have an answer

[Linguini]

Where have all the teenagers gone and where are all the painters?
Where's the street-wise Hercules to fight all of the complainers?
Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and turn and dream of what I need...

[JailHouseRock2]

[Goog]

here's an interpretive version of the topic. I'm not gonna enter this, just wanted to know whether or not this image totally misses the mark; do you guys understand what I was going for?

[xinranliu]

wikipedia always helps

So.

Today, I was browsing around the forums, and with all the hype over the Battle of the Sexes, I had ventured into the challenge arena for the first time to follow up. And I saw "Teen Challenge" for the first time, and I thought, 'hey I'M a teen, and now that I moved and have some extra time on my hands (don't ask how, long story), I should actually participate in some challenges! '.

So I came in here, and saw the topic was Insomnia, so I thought, 'hey, I could draw something for that!'

And then I saw it.

The deadline.

Feb. 1st.

And I went 'D:'.

I thought, 'Four hours?! I can't do a good enough picture in four hours! I'm too slow! ...well I'm going to try ANYWAY because I want to enter even though I'm pretty damn sure I won't win! '

So I did.

And here's my picture, made in roughly four hours. It's not the best, but I had fun doing it, and I needed to work on my speed with drawing and such anyway. I mean, that's kinda of what these things are for, right? Improving and having fun?

Anyway, here's my entry...



I'll do better next time I enter, I promise.

(Errr...I hope I'm doing this right, the only other thing I've participated in was a CHOW once...but if I'm not, um, just let me know I guess. )

[ryusenka]

First time entering one of these contests. I hope I did it right and on time. I thought I had plenty of time to do this until I saw the deadline .



First speed painting to be done in corel painter and some photoshop. I really like this painting , but it does look better small :/

[xinranliu]

lol Feb1 is a sunday xD
are we going to open a separate finals thread?

[hunchback]

heres my final

a face in a fish bowl helmet thing
insomnia is like being stuck in the middle of awake and sleeping
things outside you are almost hallucinatory i guess.
get frustrated

really abstract need to do more brainstorming next time.........

[JailHouseRock2]

mah...



So is this the finals thread?

[a la bapsi]

Will put the finals/poll thread up at the end of monday.
