Warriors Wiki:Charart/Apprentice Tutorials

These are guidelines and requirements for members in the project to become mentors and train apprentices in the ways of how to become good, quality members of Project Character Art.


 * Users join as an apprentice, and with fulfilling their join request the leader/deputy assigns a mentor to them.
 * Apprentices ask questions and listen to their mentors, and this would be done via user talk pages. Before an apprentice puts art up, they should get basic guidelines from their mentor; i.e: art program, shading style, basic instructions etc


 * Journey from apprentice to warrior.
 * Had to have had three-four images approved.
 * Know how to use shading, highlights, blur, etc.
 * Be able to put in good critiquable comments to others' images.


 * The mentor would then tell the leader his/her apprentice is ready, and if the leader agrees, we put in a 'Congrats' on the apprentice talk page (the mentor), and someone transitions them from apprentice to warrior in our member list.
 * Mentor requirements.
 * Been a member of the project for at least 2 months.
 * 6-7 images approved.
 * Know two shading styles, and how to do markings/tabby stripes.
 * Must be active.
 * Is a patient, respected member who has good, constructive comments on others' work.
 * The knowledge of how to color a cat's eye, and how to shade a two-toned cat.


 * The leader/deputy would decide if a warrior is eligible for mentoring, and then would notify that person if they have a pending apprentice.


 * Mentor-apprentice ratio. No more than two apprentices for one mentor.
