@Lee-White this is great!
NEW RULES FOR CONTESTS STARTING IN MAY
-
Some changes coming next month in regards to our monthly contest. We are getting a little more serious about them and will be doing things a bit differently. Read below to see!
-
Contests will be judged by the 3rd day of the month.
-
Contest results will be posted in the forum, but the crit will be an actual video where I can talk about the different pieces and do draw overs, etc. It will be more more involved as a learning tool for you guys!
-
The video crits will only be available to active subscribers. We are looking at many new features that reward our subscriber base and this is just one of them.
-
Only subscribers will be eligible for being judged in the contests. Anyone can post to the finals thread, but only subscribers can win and be in the video.
This will all start with the May contest. The book covers contest and "before the moment" will be judged in a post as usual. : )
Let me know if you have any questions.
-Cheers,

Woahh!! This is exactly what I hoped would happen at some point (video critiques). Very excited
-
#2 sounds great -thanks for putting that extra care into the contests.
-
I'm excited about the video portion. Getting to see the draw over's and hear the thought process an awesome addition, not just in terms of behind the scenes and what it takes to win but in terms of flat out making better illustrations. I love the potential of this new content. Will the crits be just of the top three or even the honorable mentions, too?
I do have one request, if I may, that some months the challenge might be mixed up to illustrate a specific line of text and leaving room for it instead of just a theme or topic. Just a thought.
I'm really looking forward to June now!
-
crits will be on the honorable mentions too
-
Thanks Lee,
It is nice to have an additional benefit for being a subscriber. This is the pep/motivation I am in need of! Just another reason why I enjoy SVSLearn and the people behind it

I think this a great way to do it! Those draw-overs are invaluable

@Jason-Bowen You can win if you are a subscriber. It's only $16 a month for the annual membership (which is only 50 cents a day!). We have a TON of new classes in the works and lots of other benefits too. (including individual portfolio crits!)
