Hey there.
I´m glad the prompt of the week event is there, it sounds very fun (though I haven´t really gotten around to taking a look at it.
)
But now that September´s a bit over halfway over, I wanted to ask about YoinkTober again. Please redirect me if it´s already being discussed in another thread, I don´t really remember where we did that the last years, so I´ll ask here for now? Since this one is kind of the general events organization thread at this point...
But in case no discussion is already going on, I wanted to maybe get the ideas-ball rolling for the prompts this year.
I don´t know if there´s something really obvious as a general theme that would fit perfectly since I wasn´t around that much recently, but here are some thoughts I had:
- I´ve really enjoyed the spooky prompts (like monster-prompts and stuff) we had every now and then. Plus they are in the spirit of Halloween. But I do think that the variety is what made it. So maybe we could alternate between face-value-spooky/sad/etc. promts and face-value-fluffy/happy/etc. prompts. I say face value, because we can still make whatever we want out of those prompts and interpret them completely different. Topic could be called "trick or treat"
Perhaps that might be a bit too cliché though...
- Some/all prompts could also be themed around tarot-cards, maybe? (If there´s enough tarot-cards I don´t know actually?) I remember prompts in past events relating to tarot-cards always got some incredible pieces. Plus I for some reason had a lot of drawing-ideas surrounding tarot-cards recently. :'D
I could still get away with these ideas with different prompts of course, so there´s absolutely no pressure to include tarot itself. If art-school´s taught me one thing then how to most efficiently sell my whims and bs as absolutely the assignment I was supposed to do.
What do you think? ^^' Of course I want to hear other ideas too, I´m just trying to get the discussion started!
