Here is where the fun is going to be: http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=108950

AAAAARE YOU REEEAAAADY ? let's hear it !!!!!

Here are some samples from last year!

[Noë]

Hell yeah I'm ready.. Or almost..

I really want to do this nice and big this time.. Gonna do it in oils on canvas or board (dunno yet).
Teehee :D can't wait!

Is it allowed to do some sketches beforehands, as long as the actual thing is done on the 1st of november?

Love
Marleen

Sure - all preparation needed - costumes, set-up for sculpt, studies references, practice - ANYTHING GOES.
Just start and finish one self - portrait on NOV 1st. The "start" and the "finish" calls are all yours. Just be satisfied with it and amaze us.

I'll be there :) Not sure on the medium or on what i'll do. But i WILL be there no matter what :)

SEE YOU SOOOOOON!

[Swift (BM)]

Hmm, I'd like to do this, Nov 1st is my birthday. However I have school that day but when I get down to it I can concentrate on an acrylic painting. The other thing is I hate mirrors and my reflection.

[Stark]

I'm mos def in. Is it just one or can we do a bunch and choose which ones we like most? What about 1000 like Android and then make a huge SP with all of those?....Just askin'

[Erilaz]

I can't believe it's been a year already. I can only hope i've improved! :rendered:

You can do more - and select one. If there are more then one - you post them in the same place- just don;t flood with quick ones as there will be (hopefully) hundrets of other that will want to post.

[SirGreenSock]

Oh damn im in for sure, i completely missed the sucker last year, gotta make up for that.
Think im gonna try and do a lifesize oilpainting on my drafting table or something. Gonna have to plan it out ahead of time, got class for 6 hours that day.
Rock!

[Amazing Action Ape]

count me in too.

[Killer Napkins]

im down to clown for sure!:teeth:

[Meli Hitchcock]

I wouldn't mind doing a better self portrait considering how bad my last one was. I'll so totally do this, just might take a few hours off work though to give myself enough time. =p

[gorgnut]

i'm down, last year was a blast!

[Craig D]

had it in my calendar as 'personal art day' - looks like it will be more personal than i thought!!! Might get a few friends together for a bbq and a few beers and make a day of it.

Heres lookin' at me, kid.

[crimsoneye]

I might join in, depending if I have work that day.

[Slash]

Fuck yeah! I've been hyping up people for months now! I wouldn't want to miss the change of being a part of the beginning of something historic! It was an honor to participate last year, and it will be even more so this year!

November 1st it is my friends, see you there!

Great event! Didn´t noticed it last year, but i am definitely in this time.
Finally i can use one of my many canvazes lying around here for months.

[~Faust~]

Please sign me up, too.

[Sickbrush]

i'm absolutely sure we'll break last year's record. mwhahahaha!!!
damn this year just flew away..

[Carnifex]

let's see if i improved over the year...

[Serpian]

I tried some warmup SPs, and MAN I could feel every second that had gone since I last did one. It was so hard! Gotta practice before the first!

[Bhrazz]

My mate Farvus and I will be on that one for sure!

[rustikof]

i'm too into myself NOT to do one:)

i actually did one last year but missed the DL, is it ok if I post that as well as a new one?

[fionkell]

I'll be there like shareware.

[smugbug]

Innee

[GriNGo]

i'm in as well!

[alesoun]

I dunno. Halloween is my busiest day of the year; I have a tendency to sleep really late next day, and I'll be working again at night. Can I make up my mind on the first?

[ChaoticKnight]

Im in :D

[strych9ine]

I'll be in again, I can't resist an excuse to paint this beautiful melon of mine.

[Arish]

Count me in too. I need to practice more painting from life, anyway.

[Chance.]

Last year was brilliant, lets spread the word!

We should try to get twice as many people to post as last year.

Wild horses, aka school, could not drag me away from this event.

[alti]

i gotta get practicing

[Molly]

ooh, yeah - put me down:)

[Kikwit]

hopefully my first "real" post here won't suck ;D

[Orunitier]

[sweetoblivion314]

i hate SPs but i'll try to do one.

[ciots]

in but holy crap, already?!

[Infinit]

This is an absolute must do!

[guggemmaneuver]

yall know i can't resist an opportunity to paint my fat f****** face

Ob: is there a reason why the title for this event isn't in the thread. it's ... "international self-portrait day" right? i just wanted to make sure. i'll be sure to spread the word as best i can.

cheers
guggen

[JustinBeckett]

Hmm... I thought the sp had to be done on the actual day? I want to join, but I'm really slow and it's on a workday, so I'll probably won't be able to.

[Bubstar]

I'm in sounds like a good time.

[PuppyKitten]

Man, the people on this forum are so good looking; It's intimidating. ;_;

But yeah I am way in!

[Oblio]

[Sway West]

I'm in, I'm in!

[saulone]

I'm in! Enroll me pretty please.

[ToxicHamster]

Sounds like good times. I have yet to post any other artwork on here, so this seems as good a place as any to do my first bit of artwork on the site, hehe. Count me in... Gonna be a shame if I have to call in sick to work... >_> <_<

[JustinBeckett]

Well.. i just caught a really shit cold, can't think at all, looks like im not in now... unless somehow i am better on Nov 1. Is that the day you are suppose to do it on?? Or do you start before?

[Killer Napkins]

[JM]

I'm in.

[dierat]

So in :P

[unique311]

[maxetormer]

sounds like fun Im in

[PhilHolland]

Dude. I'm in.

[Brendan N]

Fuckyeah, count me in. We do the sp on the actual day, right?

[AlexC]

whats the current world record for most self portraits done on one day?
I am taking the day off school to spend the whole day self portraiting, my dad is going to do one too:P, and possibly his students!

[Jason Scanlon]

Yeah im in. I need the incentive to post, apparently. Its going up no matter how crappy, i guess.



edit:

P.S.

I know you guys (here in the New World) can get this done early on Thursday. There's no excuse to miss the new It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

[Slash]

I'm so exited
I just cant hide it!
I'm about to loose control
and i think i like it!

Lets hope it doubles this year, that should mean about 660 self portraits. 666 sounds like a nice number! ;)

[Hyver]

Heres lookin' at me, kid.

actually lol'ed at this :D
looking forward to see all your ugly mugs in one thread once more.. hope i can find the concentration to pull one off myself, too

[Oblio]

Few more hours and we'll start rolling!
BRING IT ON !!!! Be CREATIVE!

[Stark]

YES! ONE MORE DAY! I guess I should pull the tablet out and get crackin on some quick SPs... Can't wait to see some creativeness!

[ToxicHamster]

I'm now thinking it'll be much more amusing to do my self portrait in my Halloween get-up. Who knows, though.

[SeB C BiEn]

I'll be in for sure this time! I missed it last year, won't happen again! :)

[Jushra]

I'm in.

[Alucard5]

Yeah i'm in.

[Stark]

IT HAS STARTED! Check 'It's Finally Finished!" to see the early entries, and prepare for more. Let's see those beautiful ugly mugs!

[jmedina]

I'm in too

[llothcat]

I'll be working the OT, OMFG still, at my job site, but I'll make it in...barely.

[Slash]

So it begins...

[~Faust~]

Well somehow I don't feel like polluting the thread with my humble comments so I'm going to post here.

Just a note to slash: Dude, I haven't looked at our stuff since we where TDing 2 years ago and I am just blown away by your progress. I"ve looked at your scetchbook and your portrait looks tight!

[Flake]

It's cool to see lots of new people de-lurking to join in over in the other thread.

[Brendan N]

It's cool to see lots of new people de-lurking to join in over in the other thread.

Thinking the same thing. Also got me thinking I should draw from life more, and do more workouts.

But seriously where is everyone? I'm hoping that we haven't seen a quarter of the entries yet, but its twenty minutes to midnight over here. Let's see some more portraiture, mutherfuckers!

[Flake]

Still 2 hours to go over here but it's only the afternoon in the States though isn't it?
I'm rubbish at timezones and that sort of thing..

[Brendan N]

Me too, but I was expecting some more hot stuff out of Europe already.
Haven't lost faith though, and I am sort of looking forward to waking up tomorrow and looking at what our dudes and dudettes in the States have done.
