I started creating a new series of characters recently. These characters all have diverse and important trades or professions within Canada. I thought it would be a good idea to incorporate these characters into my story challenges.
Challenge Goals:
- The Canadian Trades/Professions Character Challenge will be ongoing.
- I will create one new character in this series per week for at least 52 weeks.
- I will draw these new characters and also draw a scene for each one.
- I will write their “Meet the Character” page and also a “Character Insight” page for each of these characters.
- I will write at least one story per character.
