I won my first challenge!!! Time to go drink and write my vote of thanks :spew:

Thanks for the votes guys :nodding:

Always wanted a purple tie challenge but I will automatically disqualify myself since I don't have a purple tie and the DTO would be fun with a twist. How about a challenge where we get our inspiration from sketches (basically DTO a sketch). I've always wondered if those @RoSaCe sketches are useful for real fits.

His blog is below with tons of sketches:

Any takers?


That would be kind of a DTO challenge, since most of his sketches are based on real people (or so it seems). E.G. I know that Dirnelli has been in a few of them.

Yeah, a kind of DTO. Just want something fun. But open to ideas

Not many people have purple ties and it's been done before and I would like to see you DTO this fit with your green jacket. Must wear socks though!

I used to have multiple purple ties, and I think I haven't any right now.

Congrats @kulata, well done!

As for the next one: I'm sure many of us have enjoyed @EFV's recent photo coverage of Pitti. And though we like to make fun of these peacocks, there's always a number of fits that give me inspiration to try something I hadn't thought of before. I guess I'm not the only one. So, not a straight Pitti DTO, but inspired by could be a nice idea for a FC?

Congratulations for a well-deserved win. You got my vote.

Quite a few others I liked, too. Claghorn's was beautiful, and Stefan88 should have gotten more votes than he did, IMO.

Cheers,

Ac

To add a twist, rather than this be a vote, have Rosace judge the entrants.

Hi, thx for the idea @kulata I think it could have been interesting, maybe for a next challenge. for 95% I only draw anonymous people, so that everybody may recognize himself in my sketches. And as tumblr and SF are great inspirations for me, it would be fun to inspire SF by my sketche !
