July’s THEME:
GOBLINS, GOLEMS, IMPS & TROLLS!
For the trouble making creature lover! These fantasy races need love too. So explore their world and create your own goblin, golem, imp or troll. I have compiled an amazing pinterest board full of all of these creatures. Keep in mind some key things to remember about such creatures, they are of the darker fae, known for mischief, and some for violence. Don’t let the name of their species worry you, they come in a wide variety of shape and form and you can get creative and make your own! Some are beautiful but many are goofy, sinister, comical, physically large and imposing, or itttty bittty bitty. Typically I see goblins depicted green and trolls grey but you don’t have to make yours those colors I’ve seen them in a wide variety of skin colors! They do share a common trait of being closely tied to nature. Have fun and I can’t wait to see yours!
PINTEREST BOARD FOR INSPIRATION
Remember while Fan art is acceptable but I’d much rather you create your own unique creatures and characters! Please DO NOT COPY exactly an existing illustration or artist’s work. You can be inspired by to create a piece in your own composition but you should not be redrawing an existing artist’s work nor screen captures from films. If you are paying homage to the great fantasy masters Froud of Diterlizzi who are known for their fantasy creatures please be sure you put YOUR OWN spin on it!
If ever in doubt just shoot me an email to ask a question. Send signups and any questions to [email protected]
