jawshoewhah: It's a traditional art contest but we get a digital art example??? ( 5 years and 2915 days ago )
jadedink: OKAY..mods. questions for you. I get this has to be traditional, but..ummm..do the circles have to be EXACT circles? because..traditionally speaking, i don't use a compass or stencils or anything..and exact circles aren't easy to draw.
beyond that, the digital example makes this contest way to daunting. ( 5 years and 2910 days ago )
Contest Moderator: This is traditional drawing you can use a compass, circle template or even coins or the little washers that fit on screws are a simple aid to draw a circle. If you draw the circles freehand just try to make them as accurate as you can. Drawing freehand circles is a basic practice exercise when learning to draw and a little inaccuracy is to be expected. Just avoid making them too oval. The digital example shown is only to explain what we've described as the goal. ( 5 years and 2907 days ago )
Astroraith: Yo, mods! Question for a new user please? (:
