gwalchafedWelcome to B5 Minvember! This a Babylon 5 art (and writing!) challenge that takes place every November on tumblr, and now dreamwidth too!
How does it work?
Every November participants are given 6 palette prompts paired with word prompts. The objective is to try to draw something inspired by each word prompt using the palette provided. You have 5 days to complete each prompt. Also while the challenge is called Minvember you do not have to draw Minbari! Just draw anything Babylon 5! In the case of writers specifically, they are allowed to ignore the palette prompts and just use the words (though we have had writers manage to fit in the palettes in the past!), but artists must use both word and palette prompt, though liberties can be taken with interpretation of the word prompt.
We try not to put too much pressure on people, so if you don't manage to fill all the prompts don't worry! We encourage people to continue working on and posting unfinished prompts outside of November, and to go back and use previous years' prompts outside of the challenge. Participants in previous Minvembers are encouraged to post their past fills here too, just make sure to do so outside of November 1-30 when the next challenge takes place. You can find the prompts for 2022-2024 under the cut, and if you have any questions or suggestions please leave a comment below!
