@cdclipping24·Oct 8Week 4 seed prompt: Shop-ready portrait
Take any prior sprint character and produce a shop-ready bust.
Constraints: clean edges, readable at 400px wide, no watermarks covering the face. Include a 3-price pack idea (sketch, color, commercial).
Deliverable: bust + listing title + three price tiers (ideas only, not verified sales).
Founding-member copy. No testimonials.
@cdclipping24·Oct 8Week 3 seed prompt: Rival designer
Character: the antagonist of last week’s courier, designed as a sellable OC, not a copy of a known IP.
Constraints: silhouette must be readable against the courier’s. One unique silhouette break (hat, extra limb, coat shape).
Deliverable: silhouette, costume callouts, and a 150-word bio you could put on a shop listing.
Founding-member copy.
@cdclipping24·Oct 8Week 2 seed prompt: Companion creature + handler
Character pair: a tired courier and the small creature that carries the mail.
Constraints: creature must read at thumbnail size. Handler clothing shows rank with one emblem only. No logos.
Deliverable: one key pose of both together, plus creature expression sheet (3 faces).
Founding-member copy.
@cdclipping24·Oct 8Week 1 seed prompt: Street vendor hero
Character: a 20-something who runs a night market stall that secretly funds a neighborhood watch.
Constraints: 3/4 view, full body, one signature prop (cart, lantern, or folding knife that is clearly a tool not a weapon showcase), limited palette of 4 colors plus black.
Deliverable: turnaround sketch (front + 3/4) plus a 3-sentence sell note (buyer, use, price idea).
Post WIP by midweek. Founding-member sprint. No claimed client results.
@cdclipping24·Oct 8Welcome, founding members.
You are in Sketch & Sell’s Character Design Sprint Guild. This is a members-only space for weekly character sprints, peer critique, and portfolio pieces you can sell.
How a week works
Monday: a structured prompt drops (character, constraints, deliverable).
Midweek: post WIPs and ask for specific feedback.
Sunday: post a finished or near-finished piece plus a 3-sentence sell note (who it is for, what you made, how you would price it).
Peer review rules
Critique the work, not the person.
Lead with one strength, then one specific change (silhouette, proportion, color, story).
No AI-generated “fixed” versions of someone else’s piece without permission.
Keep references credited.
Community guidelines
Original work only, or clearly labeled studies.
No NSFW, hate, or stolen IP.
Credit collaborators.
Founding-member copy: we are shaping the first sprints together. No customer results or testimonials yet.
