Wow, what a challenge!
This challenge was amazing. I’ve learned a lot about my artistic self as a result of this, as I have never before completed a challenge like this one. I drew more art in a month than I have ever done in a semester at college.
Waking up every morning in November to draw a character was exactly what I needed.
I saw some of the most amazing stuff by artists who gave their all and best, everyday! Thanks for doing so. I’ve definitely got some new favorite artists as a result of this.
In closing, I’d like to say congratulations to us all for completing the 2012 30 characters challenge.
Now that it is done, I’ve got some great inspiration, momentum, and 30 new characters to animate now.
Well, I better get started.
Cheers,
Tiph
