Quests & Challenges

@Saraceaser please and thank you!

@SenchaDrake
Done and done; got you all signed up! ^^

I barely know a thing about art, so this should be fun :)

May I join the pinglist?

@Lhumyaki
Well, it's all sorts of 'art', so you might recognize a thing or two; if not then that's what Google's for, no? X)

@Unidra
Of course! ^^ I'll have you added. If you'd like to join you can fill out the Sign-Up Form or I can add you in? I just ask you read the rules. :)

@Saraceaser

Whoops. Sorry - my brain was not fully awake when I first read this. Thank you for adding me to the pinglist. I'll fill in the form.

[center]Alright, last day to Sign-Up, so final call! [emoji=light rune size=1] (Giving you guys a quick ping as you're on the Pinglist(s) but haven't submitted a Sign-Up Form; which is fine if you want to spectate! Feel free~ But if you want to join please head to the Instructions Post or let me know if you'd like me to sign you up; I do ask you read the Instructions Post/Rules first, please and thanks. :3) [quote=pinglist] Pinglist snipped!

[center]Sorry for the Mis-Ping!

Well then, I hope you have all filled out the Sign-Up Form on the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/3021288/1#post_47935640][b]Instructions and Rules[/b][/url] pamphlet that Taran had handed out? "As there's quite a few of you, we'll keep a few Sign-Up Forms available for any stragglers, until 12 FRT; be aware to be able to keep track of points and records - the Library has most of our attention, as it is - [b]only those who filled out the Sign-Up Form can participate[/b]; we do appreciate the enthusiasm, of course." [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/3021288#post_47935640][img]https://i.imgur.com/OLZUieL.png[/img][/url] "Now, onto the [b]artwork for today[/b]!"

"Since the curators or conservator or whatever they are called are busy restoring the artwork themselves, we have to make do with models and images." He waves a claw at the table, specifically at what appears to be a small, not really well-done clay model, almost appears to be the [b]upper torso of a figure[/b]... Taran huffs at the object. [img]https://i.imgur.com/xXxmUF9.jpg[/img] "Considering how busy everyone is, it seems they had a few hatchlings make the model, and they couldn't finish the lower half. It's... pretty rough, as you can see." "Now, here is some information on the art that they recovered." He grumbles under his breath as he shifts through the papers on the booth before pulling one out. "Today's artwork seems to have a fair amount of information recovered, but I will tell you now that might not always be the case." He warned before reading off the parchment. [/font][/size] [quote=Sunday's Artwork][size=4][font=times new roman]"Considered to be one of this [b]Italian Artist[/b]'s greatest works, and arguably one of the most famous pieces of art from across the globe, this [b]sculpture [/b]was originally commissioned to line the [b]Florence Cathedral[/b] along with some other works of art during the time of the [b]High Renaissance[/b], harrowing a [b]popular biblical figure[/b], but ended up in a public square when it was unveiled in [b]1504[/b] instead." "Can you name the [b]Title [/b]of the artwork, and the [b]Artist [/b]who completed it?" [img]https://i.imgur.com/4cTmOUL.png[/img] Luminous interjects with nervous excitement. "Oh, and if you can [b]name the biblical story[/b] the figure is based from, please? You don't have to, of course; I seem to have forgotten, and it would be rather helpful if you could."[/font][/size][/quote] [img]https://i.imgur.com/mfZQd3b.png[/img][img]https://i.imgur.com/6yTsl6v.png[/img][img]https://i.imgur.com/mfZQd3b.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/Wu0qa82.png[/img] [size=4][font=times new roman]Luminous began passing out parchments and quills. "This is the [b]submission form[/b] for today. Just fill it out and turn it in; you have until about [b]tomorrow at 3 FRT [/b]to fill it out. If you're unable to fill it out, feel free to ask and we can give you the form via PM to fill out instead."[/font][/size] [url=https://forms.gle/38e8bSpjUp2CzfW1A][img]https://i.imgur.com/WkZSjqb.png[/img][/url] [size=4][font=times new roman]Luminous fluttered her wings, shifting on her hind claws. "Oh, and I almost forgot," she stated, turning around and plucking up one of the haphazardly made gift boxes; this one a dust-covered white with a silver bow. "Today's reward. I'm not quite sure what is in here, however... guess we'll wait and see for the winner to open it. "Now, if you have anymore questions, let me know if I'm around - I'll be continuing to help the recovery efforts of the buried artwork - or feel free to ask Taran, as he'll be manning the booth." The Coatl rolled his eyes, but didn't say anything as he leaned against the booth. The Pearlcatcher gave one last wave. "Please follow the rules, and hope you can help us in this time of need!"[/font][/size] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/NUriXUs.png[/img][/center] [size=4][font=times new roman][b]Note: I will be available most of the day, but starting tomorrow I will be mainly unavailable from about 3:30 FRT to 12:30 FRT. I'll try my best to answer any questions/concerns when I can, but please be patient, thank you! Hope everyone has a wonderful BSJ![/b] [emoji=light rune size=1] [img]https://i.imgur.com/aK6EXOa.png[/img]

And away we go!! I've actually seen this one in the 'flesh', so it would be embarrassing if I didn't get it....

Art isn't my forte, really, so glad to have got at least one this week!!

ha, same here, @/goldia! saw this one in-person a couple years ago, it was incredible!
