![]() ![]() DO NOT wait until the last second to create your account and upload your submission. Where: As is usual, all submissions must be made through the site. Announcement of winners and finalist - Mar 6th, 2015.Deadlines for voting - Mar 1st, 2015, 6PM GMT.Deadline for submissions - Feb 23rd, 2015, 6PM GMT.When: The challenge starts now! Deadlines and important milestones are outlined below: That is more than large enough for our purposes though! Each artist is limited to 1 (ONE) submission! So keep that in mind when planning your drawing. What: If you are using the demo version of ArtRage, you are limited to exporting your images as JPEG's, at a maximum of 1280x1024 pixels (you can create larger canvases, but you can’t save them). The only requirements are that you must use ArtRage to create your image, stick to the theme, and be ready to have some fun. Who: The challenge is open to anyone that wants to play along. These are some of the strengths of ArtRage, and you should be able to play easily in this realm.if your imagination is up to the task. In addition to having the entire arsenal of ArtRage tools at your command, I'm also going to keep the theme rather loose and open this time around - "colour and texture" is the theme. ArtRage allows you to paint with thick oils that smear and blend naturally, draw with pencil and chalk that reacts to the texture of your canvas, and get realistic results without needing to resort to post-processing techniques. Don't worry, you don't have to purchase the program to play along though - you can use the free ArtRage 4.5 demo available for Windows and Mac here: ! While I've limited the tool - you still have lots of space to play. This time, you are limited to using ArtRage as your tool for image creation. Normally I tend to leave the tools and mediums wide open. ![]() This ArtOrder Challenge is going to be a little different. Check out the "ArtRage 2" blog entry - the piece is a great study, but what I really like is what he wrote - "it's great if you want to train your eye and practice color matching the hard way." So when the folks at ArtRage contacted me about my potential interest at teaming up for an ArtOrder Challenge, it didn't take long for me to agree to join forces for something fun. ![]() Okay, added an example I painted using only the mouse.If you are a digital artist, there are a ton of options out there for you to experiment with, but ArtRage captured my attention a while back with I started seeing the images that Robh Ruppel was creating with it. Mayhap I'll post some test sketches so you can see my pathetic tablet-drawing non-skills. I'll try a demo of that too, see which of the three programs (ArtRage, Painter, or Sketchbook) I like more. Here's cartoonmonkey's blog entry comparing the two. Of course, for $179 I could get Autodesk Sketchbook Pro, which I heard about via Penny Arcade. Reportedly that's more of a drawing program. Here's a Bob Ross style tutorial I found for ArtRage. No icky watermarks, so I wouldn't call it crippleware. If you go really fast you get a drybrush effect at the end of a stroke, etc.īest of all, it's free! Well, there is a free version anyway, and aside from a few missing tools you can do all the key things. this is just quickie testing with the mouse, and even with the mouse the strokes feel and look nice. I'm not even using my tablet with the demo yet. I definitely need practice with the tablet. I've used Corel Painter before too - do I own it? I have to check, I think it came with my tablet. As soon as you open the program you can immediately start scribbling and I got this instant sense of, "Oooh, look at that." Something about this program felt really nice to me. As a result it has that intuitive touchy-feely interface that I liked about Bryce. I found a painting program called ArtRage that's made by some ex- MetaCreations folks. Jen and traditional paint don't get along well, but this is neat, so I thought I'd review it. ![]()
