#34 Challenge: NPC's as children
Deadline: Friday, 16th May
Post your piece in this topic!


Hey everyone! Welcome to the 34th Fanart Challenge! Apparently the idea of drawing the NPC's as children has been fairly popular, so here you have your excuse chance! Illustrate what your favourite NPC's looked like when they were kids - draw us cartoons or paint us a portrait! Heck, if your nephew looks just like Minsc as a kid and even has a hamster, use your eyeshadow to draw him a blue circle on the face and take a photo. :D Cosplay at it's best, no?

Have fun and be creative! You have two weeks to play around with the idea so go nuts!

And, just out of curiosity, my dear, what *are* you wearing? :D - Tempest to me.

OMG YESSSS I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS TO SHOW UP AS THE THEME!

^_^ Well then, allow me to post the first picture, which I drew a few weeks ago as I was hoping this challenge would come up...

...Yes, it's Xan. Ever since that time on the bonded path where he tells CHARNAME about his childhood, I've wanted to draw him as a kid, completely immersed in a book.

With a dreamy, far-off look
And his nose stuck in a book
What a puzzle to the rest of us
Is Xan!

I've been taking my time with drawing, but in the meantime, I found a picture that Imoen drew of her ragtag family when she was eight! Yes, what could be better than a drawing of them as children from WHEN they were children!

Erm....it's supposed to be little Xan, with some scenes in his early days,
About the upper part of the scene, well... Kivan decided that he need some swordsmanship tutoring, Azri told me that Xan live in Evereska n Kivan in some other city, oh well, let's just say there was some student exchange program back then :rolleyes:

That was BRILLIANT, Isi, and somehow really cute. :D

I'm also stupefied by how WeeR has developed as an artist! Your paintings get better and better all the time, that one was awesome and the one in Challenge 33 was even more so!

And Quinn - that's just beautiful. I really love your style and your gentle style of coloring. :wub:

Beautiful beyond words. Elven Exchange program rocks. :)

And, Sammi, forgot to mention it was the cutest Xan under the tree! If we had illustrations to the lovetalks, it would have to be the one.
