Traci 13

A while back we at the Wednesday Night Drawing group mere talking about alternate DC 52 characters, obscure ones that need love too. Jake and I started doing a comic jam based on Traci 13, which according to Jake’s DC character book, uses magic manifesting itself in the form of glowing purple stained-glass ponies. We wondered how useful that power could be, thus the comic jam. I drew this sketch for the dc52-style redesign, though she’s probably wearing too much clothing.

Apparition

For a few weeks now we were discussing the DC new 52 at our usual Wednesday Night Drawing gathering, mostly about lesser known characters that could have used the relaunch. Jake Roth brought along an encyclopedia of DC characters for reference, and we went through the book for characters - I turned down Space Cabbie and Detective Chimp in favor of Apparition. I may do a short minicomic parody of a 52 book using this character and design…

RULES

1.) THERE WILL BE ONE POST ON THE SKETCHBET TUMBLR EVERYDAY BEFORE MIDNIGHT CST TIME. We aren’t responsible for checking your personal tumblr to see if you posted there by accident and we don’t have to tell you that you posted early by mistake. There are no do overs for this rule. *EDIT* THE DAY WILL NOW BEGIN AND END AT MIDNIGHT CDT.

2.) ANYONE ON THE DANGER LIST NEEDS TO POST TWO SKETCHES THE NEXT DAY. It is your job to check the danger list to see if you are on it. There are no do overs for this rule.

3.) YOU MAY ONLY POST 1 FANART PER WEEK. O.C.s for other properties count as fanart and the week starts on Sunday. If you accidentally post two in a week, you will be put on the danger list.

4.) PUT SOME EFFORT INTO IT. A general rule of thumb is 15 minutes of time. If you post a low effort submission, you will be placed on the danger list.

5.) DON’T GO HIGHER THAN AN “R” RATING. Nudity is fine, life drawing is fine. Fetish art, explicit sex, “attack art,” and socially unacceptable or inflammatory content isn’t. There are no do overs for this rule.

6.) DON’T BE PUBLICLY PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE/HOSTILE ABOUT SKETCHBET MOD DECISIONS. It’s unbecoming and childish. We’d like to promote a better environment about that. There are no do overs for this rule.

7.) TAG YOUR POSTS. The first tag should be your name, and all fanart needs a #fanart tag. Otherwise how will we know if you posted or not? There is no do over for this rule.

8.) DON’T POST FINISHED WORK THAT IS FOR SOMETHING ELSE. This isn’t your personal promo tumblr. You can post the roughs or concept art, but not the finished comic page or commission. If you break this rule you will be put on the danger list.

9.) *EDIT 4/12/2012* DO NOT REDRAW, RECOLOR, OR OTHERWISE IMPROVE PREVIOUS DAYS' POSTS. It's unsporting and disingenuous. If you didn't get it done on the day, it shouldn't go in. If we catch you, you will be removed from Sketchbet. There is no do over for this rule.
