Mimic Challenge - Up Comming

Over a few weeks, Illusion Illustrations will hold our Mimic Challenge. In the Mimic Challenge, we will be using movies and television shows as our guide to characters, background environments, and props. Each challenge will cover the span of about 4 weeks and a will have specified requirements. During the Mimic Challenge four things will always be needed, such as, a good guy, a bad guy, an environment, and a prop of some type that would be specified each challenge.



For our first challenge we will be exploring the world of Avatar the Last Airbender.

CHARACTERS: Must have a unique bending ability. Either a bending ability such as metal bending, or swamp bending can be applied or you can create a new one if you feel so inclined. Either way they’re needs to be an obvious bad and good character.

ENVIRONMENT: Temple or village that the unique bending group would have created.

PROP: A specific environmental prop that can be used with in the initial environment of the temple or village. A 3 point turn of this would be required and must illustrate a use for the unique bending group.

Since this is our first challenge, we will do a piece of the challenge, a week at a time. First week character 1, second week character 2, third week environment, and fourth week we’ll do a prop. As for now that’s the plan 
Our main purpose of the Mimic Challenge is to practice adapting our style to another artist style as well as learning different types of styles. If anyone else is interested please participate or please give us input. We’ll be posting our progress as the week’s progress and we’d love for others critiques as well. This should be fun guys and the more who’d like to join the more fun we’ll have.  Stay tuned for announcement on when the challenge will begin.
