My friend was going to draw a Pokemon every day of the  month but kinda died out on the idea. I want to copy her idea but instead, I'm going to draw a different Tolkien character every day. Hopefully I can redesign some of the ones I already drew, complete a few, and maybe have enough time to make some totally new ones. Even if I'm not totally proud of the drawing I want to upload them! Don't let me forget haha.


update: 30 day challenge is going strong but due to long day and a cut on my finger Orome is nothing more than a doodled sketch. I'm gonna work on Varda but the whole bunch plus this weekend may not be uploaded until later. I assure whoever the hell cares to even read this that stuff is getting done on the day I assigned it no matter how terrible it is. Now to shove my dog off my bed so I can draw then sleep.

Update Feb 2, 2012,

School is going well! Father not so much. I finished the 30 day challenge ! I"m so proud of myself. Although most of it is just sketches of faces (and a couple days are dumb looking stick figures because i was too tired) I still DID it.

It occured to me that I'm in the 100 theme challenge group and haven't finished the challenge. I attempted a Naruto themed one a while ago in a sketchbook and as much as I love it, I'm not really interested enough in it to continue it. I figured now, since i just designed 30 Tolkien characters from The Silmarillion and have many more to create, I should work on getting comfortable drawing and re-drawing these characters by doing the 100 theme challenge! Wooters. So that's my next order of business (on top of school work). I also joined a group called Arda-inspired and as a noob I can't figure out how to get back to the page unless they post me a journal entry and I can't tag them e.e. Anyway, it's all about fanart and fanfiction and i"m super stoked because I am dying to fill in the blank spaces of the book with well written fanfictions. I'm excited to possibly introduce my 3 OCs to the world...the ones that are so well guarded and hidden that most people don't know even exist. So yay!

I'm going to see a counselor next Wednesday about my poor relationship with my father. I'm going to see if there's a way I can let go of the crap from my childhood and try to treat my father like a normal human being instead of the bully he was/still is. If I can start treating him with respect it should change how I get treated but it physically pains me to consider the idea...however, I'm hoping I can talk myself through it. Well if anyone reads this...haha I will at some point upload the rest of the 30 day challenge to prove that I finished it, and begin that 100 theme challenge!
