It’s my turn to set the Community Challenge for this week…

Theme

This week we’re doing theme via creative constraint. Make whatever you want, you just can’t use characters. More specifically, no characters, named or unnamed, from any stories, songs, games, etc. That includes mash ups.

You can definitely still have people, you can still use tropes, and even create your own totally original characters. Just no reusing existing characters, or obvious derivatives

Rules

  1. Follow the community’s rules above all else

  2. One comment and image per user

  3. Embed image directly in the post (no external link)

  4. Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged (we’re all here for fun)

  5. At the end of the week each post will be scored according to the following grid

    Prize Points
    Most upvoted +3 points
    Second most upvoted +1 point
    Theme is clear +1 point
    OP’s favorite (me, this week) +1 point
    Most original +1 point
    Last entry (to compensate for less time to vote) +1 point
    Prompt and workflow included +1 point

  6. Posts that are ex aequo (tied) will both get the points

  7. Winner gets to pick next theme! Good luck everyone and have fun!

    They are neat, but was this contest this week not about making something not based on any preexisting story or character?

      “You can definitely still have people, you can still use tropes, and even create your own totally original characters. Just no reusing existing characters, or obvious derivatives”

      I´ve understood it in the way that i can do something in the W40k Setting as long i dont recreate a set character like the emperor or the primarch Horus.

      These are just some chaos corrupted Citizen of the imperium.

      If i failed the task, no problem. Was still fun to create some chaos :-)

      English is not my fitrst language. What i meant to say: “I played a W40k” game and made some characters from the 40k Universe. They are not from the game.

        Hey, like I said they are neat and I will leave it up to the creator if they count. Just more pointing out this may not be considered.

        You should make more chaos though.

      Not OP, but based on the way I understood the challenge rule, I give a downvote,

      That said, it’s why when it was my turn to launch the challenge I added the Theme is clear item in the scoring so the final score can reflect how much the image follow the theme.
