Keep It Steady: Week 3 Challenges

The options for this week's constraint are:
  • Thematic/Narrative: "Revolution"
  • Visual: Use parallel hatching for midtones
  • Structural/OuBaPoian: Word Ladder - Write a word ladder involving three or four-letter words, and draw a comic with as many panels as there are steps in the ladder. Each panel must involve its corresponding word in some form.
 For more information on our challenges and submitting your work, check under the cut!



Constraints help give artists direction in a world of infinite possibility, as well as encourage them to tackle subjects and techniques they have trouble with. Each week, Cartoon Allies will offer three constraints to choose from and apply to your work, whether as the basis of a one-page comic or to improve a long-form work. These will take the form of a thematic/narrative constraint, a visual constraint, and an OuBaPoian constraint.


Two of the tenants of the Keep It Steady Initiative are self-improvement and consistently making comics. Starting this week, we will be offering weekly prompts to motivate and challenge you as a cartoonist. We encourage you to choose one of the three constraints to make a one-page comic this week, but feel free to apply these constraints to a longer project; this could help you overcome a problem you're facing by viewing it from a new vantage point. To learn more about the benefits of working with constraints, check out this Wired article.

Next week we will feature any comics completed under these constraints on the Cartoon Allies website and tumblog. There are multiple options for submitting comics:
