hmm I might join this one. Also I was going to ask why you just randomly posted an “unofficial weekly art challenge” but then I remembered that Luke was out for the time being, just letting everybody who didn’t hear about it know.

So I made quite a few this time because it’s such a small canvas and I could make them quite quickly:


Some of these are just emojis, like the skull, pizza, fox, mushroom, and the wilting flower. Top right is supposed to be a pool with a diving board, and the ice cream and cake are both because I ate those things today at my lil bro’s birthday party! It’s hard to use all these colors in a single image, and that’s what I had in mind while making the log cabin. The only one I haven’t talked about is the apple with the worm, so… uhh… apple… yeahhhh.

Sorry for asking, but it’s the first time I’ve done this. Do I have to use that palette? I noticed with the album covers some people used different ones but here it seems like everyone has used the same one this time… anyway yeah

Usually you use the pallet, sorta like a challenge, but the pallet didn’t really fit the album cover I wanted to make so I just… didn’t use it. It’s up to your discretion, but using the pallet is a cool challenge usually. I guess just play it by ear. No one is gonna be mad if you don’t use the pallet, we are really just having fun with art here! :blush:

how do we get a project with the color pallete to begin with. I’m on a school Chromebook so I can’t go on that site you mentioned. If anyone could post a project with the color pallete that I could just copy that would also be appreciated.

Please stop. Also Luke wouldn’t want this in his topic.

Thanks for letting me know!

I made some art:


An apple


A mouse


The same mouse but now it has a mousehole in the wall (however I changed its eye colour to blue because its hole was the same colour as the eyes so it looked strange, as if the mouse had holes in its head. But the blue eyes also look strange, I think)


A snake


A tree at noon…


… and later in the day, at sunset

Finally,


A katydid face

I hope you all like them!

Now, I’m not one to step in, but since everyone here is so good at art, I had a small idea for a weekly art challenge.

For anyone who has watched Indie Cross Episode 2, you might know about The Rogues, evil robots who… want to take over the world… because they’re evil. Anyway, I learned recently that each of The Rogues are based off of game engines:

Unithor: Unity (his eye is the logo kinda)

Unreal: Unreal Engine (the mandibles are the ”U”)

Game Master: GameMaker (his eye is the logo)

Godotrix: Godot

Now, I bet you already know where this is going, but… to test your character design, can you guys make what you think MakeCode Arcade would be? It needs to have a singular eye, and needs to be a robot - that’s pretty much it, I mean, Unreal is a literal planet destroying centipede, sooooooo…

Here! This is mine. Only the first dark color is part of the palette, so don’t use the pitch blacks.

You could host Unofficial Weekly #2.
This looks like a cool idea… To bad I never had the time to watch indie cross.
