Artist Worm Sign Up

Archive: 69 posts


With the help of Inanimacy I have decided to start a worm with every single artist here on lbpcentral.

For those of you who dont know a worm is a piece of art where each person does a segment then each segment is stitched together to make 1 long piece of work. Here is an example:

http://tgmnky.deviantart.com/art/TM-Art-Worm-1-109848500
So heres how it is going to work

You need to leave a comment saying that yu want to take part in this worm. I will list all the participants in this original post. Ill be no1 and i will start it off then the 2 nd person will then do there segment and son and so on.

BUT FIRST we need ideas for themes so leave a comment saying you want to participate and any theme ideas.

This is going to be great I hope the artists join it.

Will it be a drawing Worm or a Graphics Worm?

Possibly. I thought we were actually gonna draw a worm. 2010-12-30 00:08:00

Count me in.
It doesn't seem many people are interested though, so Ima ask a few of my artsy friends if they'd like to participate to help this thread out.

EDIT: <<lol dramatic
Alright, I asked about 4 of my friends if they're interested. ( it might take a little while before i get replies)
I would've asked more, but most of them that like to draw are either busy or not very active, so i don't think i should bother them :S

Anyway, what is the starting image gonna be like? The example you provided a link to is really long.. i'm just wondering if it has to be that way?
But then again, it would probably be more confusing to the participants (and messier) if it was more like a normal image in its proportions. I'm assuming it's long like that so the drawings can be in an organised, segmented order..?

I would love to be in on this.
As far as a theme goes, do I have to be Captain Obvious and suggest LBP2?

Add me to the list.

Actually, I'd rather the theme be non-LBP-related, but general enough so you can make your segment LBP-related if you want...I'm getting pretty tired of drawing nothing but Sackpeople lately (because of the comic) so I'd really like to do something new.

I'll join in, seems like it'll be a bit of fun. One question though, are you going to be setting a time limit for how long each person can work on their segment?2010-12-30 02:14:00

Usually other people that do Worms in Graphics forums give the person about a week or so, but it depends if Alex wants a time limit or anything.

I agree.
It'd probably be best that way since not everyone can (or would like to) draw sackpeople.

I think the people participating should vote on the theme, because no everyone wants to do a sackboy, and LBP is sort of low on imagination for drawings. IMO. The imagination and creativity should be spread to other things besides LittleBigPlanet.2010-12-30 02:38:00

So are we going to be drawing out a scene, where the next person continues it (like the LBPC Community Chessboard) or are we just going to do random pictures like that art worm example in the OP?2010-12-30 02:42:00

I think it should have a common them. Random is nice sometimes, but it doesn't always lead to creativity.2010-12-30 02:57:00

Well everyone doing something different is what makes a worm so great isn't it? It's unique.2010-12-30 02:58:00

I'd rather it be a scene, it just makes it seem more whole. I think it should be like the Community Chessboard, only on a bigger scale and not pixel art, of course. Each artist could be allowed to contribute more than one segment, and it shouldn't just go longways - Having it go in all four directions (rather than just left to right) would give the artists more flexibility.2010-12-30 03:01:00

Ok then well I'll get on my computer and sort out who's taking part so far

Edit

Does anyone ahve any ideas for the size in pixels that each artist shsosuld have?

How about a 1600x1600 square?2010-12-30 09:44:00

How about a 1600x1600 square?

I think the width should be a bit bigger, and the height smaller.

But that's just me.

But it would be more organized if each segment was a square.2010-12-30 09:47:00

You're basing this off of the Chessboard right? Each person get's their own square? Most Worms go length wise, not equal portions.

But like I said, that's just my two-cents.

Well yeah I know a worm goes length-wise, but I thought if we did it more like the Chessboard (going in all directions rather than just left and right), the artists would have more freedom and flexibility.2010-12-30 09:51:00

What if we do it height 2000 width 1400. I
My only problem with doing it all 4 ways is that it's going to be. Hard to put together and I don't think it will flow as smoothly. And yes inanimacy I'm going to put all the ideas into a poll.

That sounds like a pretty large image..

Anyway, as for a theme..
I was going to suggest New year's, but then I realised how dumb that is considering New year's follows no specific theme, not to mention it's right around the corner..lol

Let me just list a bunch of possible themes(though some might not be very good) off the top of my head:

Midieval
Winter
Music
TV
Outer Space (or Celestial, which i think would be purdy...:hero
Futuristic
Food
Nature
LBP
Video Games in general
Fairy Tales
Post-Apocalyptic
Original Characters(in which each artist draws their own character, or something like that)
Horror <<probably not

Can't think of anything else at the moment- If anyone has any ideas throw em' in, if you'd kindly.

Post-apocalyptic sounds awesome, although the others are also good suggestions 2010-12-30 15:54:00

Yeah, good suggestions. I like Medieval times but probably would like to do winter, lots of possibilities with it like an....ice king or something? 2010-12-30 16:32:00

hmm... thanks for inviting me NinjaFerret

I guess I could join too. Sounds like fun. But I agree a wider image would be preferable.
I can do pretty much anything, so... why not just a mix of themes that link together. A bit like a rainbow. It starts with a color and with blending it comes out as another color. Red to Blue i.e.

Video games or original characters sounds fun, and so does outer space. I think post-apocalyptic would be a bit too hard.2010-12-30 19:20:00

And as for the rainbow bit. . .it's gonna be a bit difficult, and the drawings might not even blend well with the color you get stuck with. Don't think it's a good idea.

Post-Apocalyptic? Sounds like it should be interesting

I'll participate. I was thinking the work should show some sort of dramatic scene, almost like you would see in a movie. It'd be interesting if the worm started out with a detective at his office and followed him searching for clues and eventually getting to the center of the crime. Its a bit linear, but an interesting idea anyway.
I like the video game character idea. It could be portrayed as a large fight scene between all the characters.

If we went with a movie theme, we could have a few smaller worms stacked on top of each other, and each could look like a movie real(spelling?)

It would be pretty cool if the worm went through different movie genres

I think Movie Genre/comic would fit it, fighting is sort of a genre and comics tend to have fighting. lol

I'd like to take part in this, as long is there is no strict deadline. I get lots of work from college, and I find it hard to do much other art (unless it is worked on on-and-off around college work/life ).

Also, I voted in the vote thread for 'to each their own' as the theme, as it'd probably get the most interest and participation (:
