Welcome to 2D Noob Challenge August 16th-31st, 2013!
To be clear, if you're bad at 2D, this challenge for you! It's all about learning!
The objective of these bi-weekly sessions is to allow people to teach one another the practical skills needed to be a concept artist for video games and entertainment. As opposed to just trying to create a pretty picture, we're going to be creating art that can be used by 3D artists in a production pipeline.
THEME: Medieval Fantasy
CONTEXT: Tower Defense Towers and Minions (Credit to DKK)
FUNDAMENTAL FOCUS: Tonal/Value (Try your best to push values on your concepts)

Please feel welcome to suggest games to use as themes, the context, and fundamental focus for next session!
RULES:
1. Try your best to finish what you start, this is a great habit to get into as it progresses your skills as an artist.
2. Give critique to at least one previous person's submission for every post that you make.
3. Please only post your submissions to this thread as opposed to littering P&P with them.
4. Feel free to submit as many concepts as you like, and try your best to follow the guidelines.
5. Share your workflow, techniques, and try to build off of one another's concepts.
6. Within your submission, show your process if possible.
7. Try your best to follow the guideline provided in the thread.
8. Have fun!
Remember, we're here to provide constructive critiques (paint-overs included) to one anothers work for the sake of getting better, so don't hold back and be sure you can take critique yourself!
Also, you can add Alex, the creator of the 3D Noob Challenges on skype, and he will add you to our new 2D group!

(Make sure to tell him you want to join the 2D noob challenge when you add him.)
Suggestions on how we can improve this challenge are greatly encouraged!

Celtic Support Tower:
Celtic ritual tower which causes a small amount of magical damage while slowing enemies down, this allows other hard hitting towers to cause more damage to the enemies.
Upgrading changes the stones and adds carving on the tree.
