I am AB

[Lee White]

Hi guys,

We are doing the live crit for the October challenge. Which was inktober based. I wanted to chime in and let you know that I snuck into the contest! I entered as AB! Antonio Blanco strikes again! i wanted to see if anyone would recognize my work in ink. I even used the same font I do for my podcast as a hint! haha! Obviously I won't be in the running for the prize. : )

It was fun to be anonymous and enter the contest! After talking about what we would do for the contest during a podcast, I couldn't resist!

I'll talk about my concept and approach on tomorrows episode!

and there went my favorite one...I loved the idea, because it was different to the other in aproach...Great work Lee. :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

@Lee-White Whew! One less team in the sweet 16. Hahaha! I really liked your different approach and the old-timey feel to it. When will the crits be? I haven't seen any emails go out.

[Lee White]

@chrisaakins It's tomorrow! 3pm Central US time.

[chrisaakins]

@Lee-White is it the same link as last time? Or will a new one be sent out?

[Lee White]

new one being sent out. Lisa will send it to you.

[chrisaakins]

@Lee-White Thanks! And thank you for always responding to our posts on the forums. We love hearing from you from time to time in our posts. It's always such good feedback.

I didn't catch that it was you, but I thought to myself "Oh, I bet Lee chooses this one as one of his favorites". :face_with_stuck-out_tongue:

[Lee White]

@TessaW I waited to see if I'd make the top 16 during judging with Will and jake picking the entries. I made the top 16, then told them that it was me! So then we deleted mine and brought in another one. :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

[TessaW]

@Lee-White Lol, good one. :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_closed_eyes: Whew! Just imagine the heckling you'd get from them if you didn't make that first cut.

[Lee White]

@TessaW I was nervous!!

[sigross]

@Lee-White I can't sign in to the arena is there a delay?

[sigross]

@Lee-White ignore that I'm a day out lol

[Whitney Simms]

You sneaky snook!

[Charlie Eve Ryan]

That is fantastic! I feel the varied weight in your inky lines plus the font coupled with a clever concept should have given you away to the boys! I can't not see your style, lol! AB rocks!

[BichonBistro]

@Lee-White and I thought somebody was cribbing your font! it’s one of my favorites for the unique take and vintage feel in the execution (except for the Woof font )

[Kat]

sneaky...sneaky! LOL, great image, and I'm glad you had a chance for a bit of fun!

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@Lee-White HAHA! I honestly found this concept unique. Nice one. Lol

[SFischer]

Damn the signs are all there!! I knew this was illustrated by a professional right away. Great work AB!

[K.Flagg]

Omg that is the best!
