50 pictures for the whole month? of November?
Do doodles count?
You're on. I shall only be using MS Paint and a lack of any real skill, but with each picture, will be Max's progress from 1-50.

I'm kidding of course. That's more like my progress through the levels.

Yes, and yes, if you want. It's up to you, you can make 50 full color paintings too . For me, even 50 sketches is quite a lot, I usually draw one or two pictures a week.

That's the funny thing. As soon as there is a time limit or it becomes quantity over quality, in my opinion, it becomes less enjoyable.
Regardless, I'm in as well. ^^
Well there goes the Pyr/Inago RP time *rolls his eyes* I'll look forward to seeing the pictures

Max, did I get this right? You have less than 30 days available and you are taking part in both novel writing AND in the picture challenge?
The mind boggles!
Good luck! 
(Well, in fact, good luck to you all. Will be interesting to see all those series of 50 pics by the end of the November!)
I'm planning on doing 2 pictures a day. My artisic skills are nearly non-existant, so each one will probably take no more than an hour to do.
I'll try and add detail to the pictures though, rather than just stickmen on a white background. 
Hmm, could try this... could try indeed... using my 4w350m3 MSPaint skills and doodles.
Hmm 50 pictures...Add up time in school for doodles...and out of school...Ok your on!!
Catz-ie
School uhm... 5 a day, - 5 due to teachers... add the 7 minus the 8 (10 mins later) So i can do -54 a day... wait that cant be righ... nm, i cant draw
I bow out from the race!
Looks like we begin today, already got my first drawing and im working on my Catz comicz right now
Catz-ie

I'm sure it doesn't matter what style the drawings are in, at least I hope so considering my efforts, just so long as they're done really.

Yeah, im not to worried about the style of my work really, just about what to draw :
a crazy looking superhero, a villain, flowers, a tea cup, a old mill, a mountain??
Is this gonna be all imaginary (fantacy) or still life?
Oh and what size are most of your guys drawings too? A4 , A5?
A crazy looking superhero dressed up as a villain, holding a bunch of flowers and a teacup, standing in front of a mill next to a mountain.
My drawings are usually A5 or A4, and I'm going to be drawing mostly CoX characters for this. So far, just one scanned pic. I'm dragging behind *cringe*
But I have a clever plan...

So far four of the brave people taking part on the 50 pictures spree have posted their works on these threads (listed alphabetically)

Catz Pictures
Max's Pictures
Swissy's Pictures
Go Go Crazy Artist People! ^^
Edited to say what I really ment. Sowwy :< At least those four are the only threads I've seen? But I know others have posted interest as well, and didn't want to badger them . But now I do! I'm looking forward to see more pictures
Also: I've finished 3 pictures so far, and it's been lot of fun, though I don't know how I'm going to find time to do the other 47! I don't want to give up RP... who needs sleep?

I edited my post to reflect what I was trying to say. Sorry *sob* Have a cookie? Um.... how about a spanking new faber-castle pen? (Related note: my 0.2 pen just started to fade and the store only had the other type of pens I don't like -.-)

Updated the list of threads.
It's now halfway, so 25 pictures, or 30 if going by 2 pics / day that was my own goal.
I find myself spending lot of time on the pictures, editing and coloring them in photoshop, which is lot of fun but does take time. I learned a few more tricks and managed to use another trick I learned with frolic's picture a while back. That made me feel like I'm getting somewhere with photoshop, yay. I also feel that I am getting slightly better with hands. In the nadia and andre picture I had to draw toes with was challenging. But hands are still my bane.
I've really enjoyed seeing everyone's pictures and creativeness Please keep posting!

Heya,
It's not as demanding task as writing the 50k words, because even if you write total rubbish, typing it up will take time but you can draw crappy pencil pictures rather fast.
Coile has been talking about the Novel Writing Month and that has made me think how something like that would be nice. But I don't really want to write 50k words. But I would like to draw.
So I thought: A picture is thousand words, I could draw 50 pictures in a month. And that is what I am going to do. Not fully colored pictures, though, pencils and inks if I got the time.
Anyone else who want to join in my crazy idea?
The rules: Simple. Set a limit of pictures that must be drawn during November. No using previous pictures that you finish up now, though can use old sketches as ideas and models. I am going to go for 50 pictures.
I will probably be doing mostly CoX pictures, and posting them here for everyone's amusement and enjoyment
Come on artist! You can't get better unless you DRAW.
