Think I dropped a deviation in wrong folder. sorry. Which folders are for gestures?
I am a little confused about the quota because there are different ways to approach gesture drawing. For example I do a lot(over a hundred a day) of 30 second drawing although they all look horrible but I try my best to convey movement. This is a really speedy approach where you are completely not concerned with the likeness to the model. I find this very easy to go over fifty in just a day instead of a week so if I join should I put those 30 second gestures or do I place in "figures" instead where I try to convey movement, establish volume and structure.
Hey Kamikaze!
The point of Spartan Camp is to encourage gesture drawing and regular practice. Many of my pieces are two minute sketches. Some are five minute studies or longer. I occasionally draw sketches under a minute long, but like you said, they're low quality. (So, more practice is good.)
If you want to join and put in a day's worth of fifty sketches, I'd be thrilled. If you'd like to submit a week's worth of quick drawings, I'd also be thrilled. If you want to mix and match, or put in only five longer, more emotive figures, we'll happily accept that, too. (I've just been limiting the 'featured' category to 50+).
The group's been a bit slow since I got a new programming job a few weeks ago, and now I'm in the middle of a writing marathon, but it'll come back in December.
Happy drawing!

Aye, issue I would probably having to submit in the group and browsing it would be that deviantart does not allow me to disable censorship because I am 17 yet I am doing life drawings(yet from pictures, cant get access to classes 
). This is really annoying because I can't view any thumbs or anything >_<
). This is really annoying because I can't view any thumbs or anything >_<*cringe* Ouch. I wish I could help with that. In any case, you're welcome to submit here as much or as little as you like.
