TOPIC SUGGESTIONS

Hey everyone, here's a chance to add your topic suggestions!
Inspired by Roberto Ortiz's beautiful and faithful daily sketch section on CGSociety's forum.

Everyday I will randomly pick one of your suggested topics for a daily sketch we can all jump on.
It's a beautiful concept and has inspired a great deal of growth in many artists, very much including myself!
Once a number of topics have accumulated, it's perfectly fine to just pick any of the threads you like the topic of and go right at it. You won't miss a thing!

I will kick things off with a few suggestions:
- Chinese Dragon
- Medieval Dragon
- Massive Landscape at Sunrise
- Intimate Landscape at Noon
- Abstract Balance
- Your Take on a Classic Masterpiece
- Still Live on Your Desk

Dawww, i llllllliiike this :P
How about we PM you suggestions though, so one would be more surprised by the topic? ;)
Increases the chance to get a spark of inspiration rather than thinking about a topic ahead that may comes up weeks from now? :roll:

At least for people who would like to folow this closely? ... like myself :ugeek:
Still, YOU would not get surprised :? ... i sure would like YOU to get something out of this, as well :D
Maybe, let's pick one day of the week where a person from the community is appointed to start a unannounced topic?

A potential for great disappointment, but I'm willing to risk it! I'd love to get to be part of the action every now and then... :lol:
We'll see how it goes! I might have to eventually give some responsibilities away, because I'm the lousiest at maintaining something like this myself, I've just put so much on my plate and really care to have fun with it all, you know. We shall see. But I'd love to get this thing going here for sure! :D

I'm considering changing the name of this whole thing to Sketch Topics or something like that. Because I dislike the idea of people thinking they'd be too late to take on any of these topics. I myself would love to bounce back to some older topics and add another, hehe.... anyway, I don't expect a lot of people to join in, but I'm thrilled for every single addition to the team. How else can we get to the epic Avatar mash-up?! :| :lol:

Anyway, keep suggesting away, too! ;)
