Hello Designers, Ninjas, Aliens and Pandas!
I'm glad to inform you that our first stage is now over, so this
means that we have complete our sketches period! Now comes the
time to set a proper priority to start our Colorize Stage (Stage
2) and give color and live to this awesome draws.
We will have until July 05 to end our second stage (Colorize) so
that give us 17 days to play with our imagination and give love to
this draws. Remember, this vote is not to choose a wallpaper, but
instead to give us a prior list to work with them and try to
arrange our time to finish them all. One of the ideas that Design
team had is to use all (or almost all) our wallpapers in a special
package based on Verne's artwork. We have never had that much
artwork, so is fare enough to use it!
=== How we will vote? ===
Simply give us your top five draws (please, if you feel that some
need more color don't see that, see concepts and vote based on
that).
Each Art piece has a number, just make click on the image you like
and send us the last number of that URL
Example:
http://publictest04.fedoraproject.org/artboard/post/view/47
Vote = 47
Artwork Designs to vote for:
http://publictest04.fedoraproject.org/artboard/post/list
=== Where we will vote? ===
Anywhere!!! That's the amazing about internet. Send a reply to
this mail with your top five, send a twitter/identi.ca
message with the hashtag #FedoraArt or just ping me at IRC and let
me know your votes.
=== Until when is the vote? ===
Until our weekly meeting (which is Tuesday at 19UTC)
=== What will artist do in the mean time? ===
Draw!!!! Colorize!!!! Polish!!!!
I will keep coloring as many draws as I can trying to increase
votes!
Please, blog about this, call your friends... spread! Remember
that our wallpaper is the face of fedora, and we all want it to be
the best!
=== Further info ===
I would like to explain a little why are we doing this and Pro's
Con's of this new initiative:
Pro's:
* We are in time!!! one of our common problems are that the
artistic process sometimes takes more than it should, so having a
schedule like this give us time to know where we are and what we
should do
* We can divide and conquer! Artist can't do everything, but we
can divide our tasks and conquer the world. Using human resources
based on their best skills lets us set us realistic-goals based on
what people can do, knowing how much can we push them.
* We know when and where! We have a detailed schedule and know
what to do in each stage; so there is no way to be lost without
something to do. Also, we have an awesome place to put all our
artwork and get some interesting feedback (Artboard)
Con's:
* We have dates... so even if our process is going ok, we need to
deliver our art on time.

My votes:
---------------
(in order of preference)
=> 46
=> 50
=> 37
Comments:
------------------
(46) The smoke, perspective and general concept of 46 is
perfect. 49 is an attempt to give it life but I think this one
needs to be 3D art for ease. (As though that will be easy ...).
Anyway, it will be easier to touch-up than drawn from scratch. I
see a lot of potentials here ... in fact, I might as well start the
modelling right away. Disclaimer: I'm not yet good with texturing
but its one adventure worth taking.
(50) Almost there. Add haze, water density, caustics, some
sea life and its awesome.
(37) This is fantastic. Are we now going brown???? Looks
suspiciously like an Ubuntu wallpaper. Can we make that blue.
I can't think of more ... so mine ends at three
Nice work
