Welcome everyone, to week five of 'Learn To Draw With Friends!'
Last week was another amazing week for the contest with some absolutely stunning entries and process posts to compliment them. Our guest judge, @steempowerpics had an extremely difficult time choosing his winners due to the incredible standard of ability and skill that was displayed by everyone who entered. Some of the process posts were absolutely brilliant and a few have been very well rewarded for their efforts in this regard. I very much hope that you all continue to be rewarded for your efforts in posting quality content on the platform! :)
And now to this weeks Guest Judge!!!
@son-of-satire!
Gaming!

It couldn't be easier! :)

Please check out my process post here:
https://steemit.com/art/@nicolemoker/learn-to-draw-with-nicole-3-crash-bandicoot-3
thank you❤️
You have done an excellent job of Crash Bandicoot @nicolemoker and I love that you have added some extra bits from the game too. The detailing is phenomenal and you have done a fabulous job of catching all of the shadows. I can't wait to look at your process post but the link hasn't shown up in your comment I'm afraid. Could you add it in please so everyone can see? ;0
Have a wonderful day @nicolemoker and thank you so much for taking part. I hope you had fun and wish you the best of luck!! :[)
https://steemit.com/art/@nicolemoker/learn-to-draw-with-nicole-3-crash-bandicoot-3
I had updated the link :) please take a look🌷
Really nice rendering Nicole! The colors are super vivid and the accurate shading really makes him pop off the screen.
That is just awesome....... the colour from the pencils is so vivid. Xxx
Please take a look of the process post~ the link is updated💓 Please upvote and resteem if you like my drawing ☺️
:) Thank you for including the link to your process post @nicolemoker! You have done a fantastic job of the intermediate level and your process post is very good. I'm really glad you had fun entering the contest and hope your post continues to do well for you.
Good luck my friend and have a wonderful day! :)
Very nice entry @nicolemoker! Your processpost is great too! :)
Good idea to add some in game items!
Nice work!!!
My entry for Ryu:
and this is my tutorial post:
https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@giuatt07/ryu-street-fighter-learn-to-draw-with-friends-tutorial
Good for you, going for the advanced one. Great job too.
You've done a great job of the advanced Image @giuatt07 and your tutorial post was really good too.
Excellent entry. Good luck mate! :)
Nice entry! :)
Nice detailing and pop of color. Good work @giuatt07
Here is Daniel's Mario drawing for this week's contest.
https://steemit.com/drawing/@steempowerkid/it-s-mario-time-daniel-s-ltdwf-drawing-contest-entry
Here is Daniel's Luigi drawing he wanted to do just for fun to go with his Mario.
This one he drew from what he saw on the laptop screen, he didn't have a printed example.
Wow thats a great drawing.... how old is Daniel?? Xxx
Daniel is 7. He has been drawing a lot this summer at camp and at home, so there has been a big improvement over last last 2 months. The older kids draw a lot, so he tries to copy what they do. When he puts in effort he does good, if he makes a mistake too early in on a drawing he gets mad then rushes through the rest. He had trouble with last week's drawing.
Just.... wow.... he obviously has natural talent... drawing that well at 7..... he's a superstar. Daniel gets my vote. Xxx
Another fabulous entry @steempowerkid. You have done a great job drawing Super Mario and I love that you have added some extra bits from the game. That was a really good idea and it makes your drawing stand out much more.
Excellent job Daniel. Well done my friend! :)
Good luck!! :[)
Wow! Daniel certainly did so well on this one!! 😲👍
Video games! Woo hoo!! I jumped right on this one, Mario and I go way back so I decided to start by trying to draw him first.
Good luck to everyone taking part this week! If you'd like please check out my process post https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@ckurtish/let-s-try-draw-mario-with-pencils-learn-to-draw-with-friends
A brilliant entry @ckurtish and thanks for giving us such a wonderful process post as well. That's the easy one out of the way so when should I expect your intermediate entry?? :[)
Have a great day buddy!!
I'm trying the advanced Street Fighter one now, it's quite the exercise but I'm determined to beat it, but I can tell you it won't be a "PERFECT" victory.
:[) Haha! Very nice @ckurtish! I look forward to your post mate! :)
Great drawing @ckurtish. Very clean lines.
Now that is awesome!!!!!! Xxx
Very precise lines, good job. I know colored penciles are a pain, if you work with them in circles rather than up and down the colors are more uniform and cover the page better.
Very nice! And thanks for the process post! :)
Here is my second submission for ltdwf, the advanced image of Ryu from Street Fighter.
Two down one to go.
Please check out my process post, I included an animated gif of my steps this time. https://steemit.com/creativity/@ckurtish/how-to-draw-ryu-process-learn-to-draw-with-friends-oc
Another fabulous entry @ckurtish. The shading is excellent and I really enjoyed your process post and the gif you included to show your steps. Really great way of displaying your skill and loved all of the Ryu quotes as well. :)
Great job mate. Good luck!! :[)
ty, I was about to give up halfway through, but then remembered the words of Ryu. ;)
Incredible @ckurtish. The details in the shading and highlights are perfect. The animated gif on your process post is really cool as well.
Hi guys, I participate with Intermediate Level drawing Crash Bandicoot!!!
Process Drawing: https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@katari/crash-bandicoot-process-drawing-learn-to-draw-with-friends
A warm greeting from Peru!!!
A brilliant entry @katari and a great process post to go with it also. You have done a great job of recreating the intermediate level image of Crash.
Well done my friend. Good luck!! :)
Thank you very much, although I usually do not draw color I made the attempt.
Great idea - going to give this a try with my little girl - Will post hers and mine...... bet hers will be better!!!! x
That makes me so happy to hear @yummymummy! :)
I would love it if more members got their children involved and that was one of my hopes for the contest so I am really thrilled that you are doing so. I look forward to seeing both of your entries and also your process posts and I hope you both have a really fun time taking part. If you are posting both entries together don't let me know which is which and I will try to guess which one is yours! :[)
Have a wonderful day my friend and thanks again!!
We had a great day working on our competition entries. My little girl has even helped with the blog. Here is the link to my entry. Xxx
https://steemit.com/art/@yummymummy/learning-to-draw-with-friends
Great way to spend the afternoon. Thanks xxx #ltdwf
Here are our final entries....... one by me.... one by my little lady.... love this competition!!!! Xxx
Great work from both of you!
Thank you so much @yummymummy! They are both fantastic drawings. I can see where you're daughter gets her natural talent from. :[)
It really makes me smile to know that you both had so much fun taking part and I wish you both the very best of luck.
Have a wonderful day!! :)
Hello everybody.
Here is my 1st entry the "Street Fighter" Ryu.
Hope it came out okay:
Thanks for your time and have a great day!
https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@apprentice001/street-fighter-ryu-is-ready-to-learn-to-draw-with-friends
Wow, that's a brilliant entry @apprentice001! Love how u gave the face expression! Great progress post too! :) Wish u good luck!
Thanks @w0olf for your support! Glad that you like it. Have an Awesome day!
My entry for the intermediate level, but I think in many ways much harder than the advanced. The number of details and different level of colors in the bandicoot is overwhelming. I know It's not perfect :
and this is the tutorial post : https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@giuatt07/crash-bandicoot-pencil-drawing-learn-to-draw-with-friends-tutorial
Great entry, mate. I personally think that this one is the most difficult, so I'm very impressed with how well this turned out. I'll be giving your progress post a resteem too.
Too bad @drago18121996 flagged my tutorial post just for envy.
Special thanks to @son-of-satire that helped my post get visible again.
You are right @giuatt07, The intermediate image may well be more difficult than the advanced. It was my mistake when choosing the images. I didn't realise there was quite so much detail in the image but you have done an excellent job nonetheless and produced a brilliant entry for the contest. My apologies for taking so long torespond to your entry. I hope your day is going well my friend! Good luck!! :)
Another nice entry @giuatt07! Nice detailing on the shading.
Hello everyone. This is my 3rd entry "Crash Bandicoot!".
Hope you like it. Thanks for your time and have a great day!
https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@apprentice001/crash-bandicoot-is-ready-to-learn-to-draw-with-friends
I love how you always find a clever way to incorporate your name :-)
Thanks @steempowerpics. Glad that you like it. Now that there is also the hashtag that I plan to include going forward, it will take time to come up a way to incorporate both. However, I enjoy finding ways to incorporate it. Have a great day!
Here is my entry, I am a bit gutted took me hours to do and didn't realise it was pencil only and only went and coloured it in with felt pens meh haha, so I will enter the pencil line work :).
https://steemit.com/drawing/@slayerkm/learn-to-draw-with-friends-process-post
#ltdwf
A really good attempt at the beginner image @slayerkm. The lines are a little shaky in places but the proportions are all excellent. You have a fair amount of natural talent my friend and with a little practice I'm sure you will become an excellent artist.
Thanks for your entry mate. good luck!! :)
Thank you so much for the feedback, proportions are something i really struggle withand now ive found this challenge i hope to improve :)
Hey @slayerkm - good entry. I agree with Tony, you got the proportions down just fine.
That is great to read as that is my biggest struggle :)
Decided to give this a try. Not much detail in my process post though.
https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@kiokizz/mario-learn-to-draw-with-friends-week-five-entry
Beginner! - Super Mario!
Very Nice @kiokizz - This came out really good. Great work on the colors and outer line widths too.
Thanks @steempowerpics :)
Your process post was very good @kiokizz and you have done an excellent job of the beginner image of Super Mario. I'd love to see how you get on with crash bandicoot using the same process. The more you practice the better you will get my friend! Good luck in the contest and have an excellent day @kiokizz!! :)
Gave Crash Bandicoot a try. I need to practice with my color mixing it seems.
I join the advanced level artists with drawing StreetFighter Ryu

You have been very busy my friend! Three entries in the space of a few hours. :)
I hope the time spent was enjoyable for you @katari!! :)
Thanks for taking part and giving us such great process posts to compliment your entries.
Have a great day buddy! :)
Yes, it takes me several days to prepare the drawings, the first steps are simple but the final touches require more time, it is a pleasure to be part of the contest.
Hi guys! :)
https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@carlosdup/i-draw-mario-learn-to-draw-with-friends
You have done an excellent job here @carlosdup but unfortunately I cannot accept your entry as it does not meet the requirements of the contest. Your process post must include at least six photos of your entry in various stages of completion so as to show others the way in which you went about recreating the image. Also, you must use pencils only and must use the image I have provided. I am very sorry my friend but if you could rework your process post I will accept your entry.
Thanks
Oh :( well... thanks friend, i will try.
here is my Crash entry

Hello friends we are learning to draw with, here is my third entry this week, Crash Bandicoot! I have a new respect for people who work with color pencils, it is tough!!
If you would like please check out my process post. https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@ckurtish/i-draw-crash-bandicoot-process-learn-to-draw-with-friends
This is a great idea. I see nobody has tackled Crash yet - he is probably the hardest to get right I think.
Cheers mate. I've been told that a couple of times already about Crash being the hardest. I didn't realise there was quite so much detail . I'm sure we'll get a few by the end of the week though. There are some fantastic artists taking part and making great process posts as well. :[)
Thanks for stopping by @thecryptofiend. I'll look out for more photography tips. Some basic ones would be especially welcome!! :[)
Here's my entry for Crash Bandicoot https://steemit.com/ltdwf/@kiokizz/crash-bandicoot-learn-to-draw-with-friends-week-five-entry

Great concept, I hope it does well for you 👍upvoted 😁
Thank you so much @crypto-expo! You are more than welcome to enter!! :[)
Hope you are having an excellent day my friend!!
clever contest idea👍 😊
Thank you @doitvoluntarily!
Hope you are having a wonderful day my friend! :[)
I love it, another great theme this week. (Also looks very challenging.) I'm happy Meredith is continuing to help support your efforts too. Thank you @merej99!
Thanks @steempowerpics! I hope you manage to find time in your very busy schedule to post an entry. It wasn't quite the same last week without one from you! And @merej99 has been very generous once again! I'm looking forward to the next Community Engagement Challenge cos I don't think I gave it my best in the last one though I just managed to finish! :)
I will, I just posted my Doctor Who Fan Art drawing this morning. I waited for the contest to officially end. So great with Meredith. LOL well you did put in the effort and complete it, that's what counts.
I saw your post last night mate but didn't have time to leave a comment. It's an excellent drawing mate. Justa bit of a shame about the smudgy face but these things happen. Still looked awesome though!
I know. I'm happy I was able to give that one last push at the end and complete the challenge but still think I could do a lot better in terms of posts! :)
Hope your day is going well mate!
Resteemed the contest for you. I see the entries are coming in fast again this week.
Cheers mate. I hope it's as busy as last week but I know there will be quiet weeks so we will see how it goes. :) There are a lot of art contests on right now and I expect people will want to enter some of tjose as well so might not have time for all of them. Unless of course you are @fole who seems to find time to enter them all! :)
Awesomeness!!! Can't wait to give it a go!
:) And I can't wait to receive your entry @grom! :)
Hope your day is going well my friend!
Wow, this is a golden opportunity for the village boy who likes to draw like me
Welcome to the Learn To Draw With Friends contest @rsphotowork! I look forward to seeing your entries and process posts. You seem to be a pretty talented artist already so I am expecting big things from you! :{)
Have a great day my friend!
I just saw the post, apparently it was posted in my bedtime that's why I missed it. The gaming theme is awesome! I'm coming for you first Ryu! I guess pen drawings are gonna miss out this time. I don't have colored pencils... XD
I have so much going on with Steemit I need another me. Haha.
:[) There is only one @deveerei!! :[)
Looking forward to seeing how you get on this week @deveerei. I am expecting great things from you. :)
Have fun my friend!
Hopefully things won't get too busy. We're planning things for the local community and I've decided to start an art guild too. :D
We love these contests of yours @tonyr. Especially seeing our fellow Filipinos try their best and be rewarded at the same time! Thanks for this!
You are very welcome @philippinetrail. I am very pleased that some of the contestants are being rewarded for their time and effort in creating great posts for the contest and I really appreciate your support also.
Have a wonderful day my friend! :[)
You do the same awesome @tonyr!
I have had a good look and chosen the winners. Give me a call when you are ready to hear them.
Hi @tonyr :) Thanks for this fun contest. I was going to join but then I messed it up. I used pens instead of pencils or color pencils. I'll just share it here just in case :) I cant wait for the next contest!
