Inviting everyone to join in to this thread, I am going to post some public domain pictures and we're all going to pick 1 or more of these photos, have some fun at drawing them in our own styles and say in a couple of weeks or so we'll have a big old critique party. Anyone up for it?

Choose an image and when you post your piece, don't forget to name your medium(s), and the date you finished.

Have fun! I want to see a variety of styles. Remember, it doesn't have to be perfect, you just have to make it yours. If you find any pictures that you'd like to add to this compilation, post a link and I'll throw it up here with the others.

Edit: There are some images that would not show up. They are linked.

Interesting idea mecha :)

Man, my first instinct is to do a photorealistic version with my tablet...
I may try a pencil sketch of one ^_^

Hey, I'll join in :)

That actually sounds like a lot of fun. I think I'll just try it out.

Perhaps networking and community projects would be a better subforum to put this in?
Traffic reasons and the nature of this project.
=D

Oooh, I like this idea. I can't decide which picture I like, though.
