great maker!

Minvember : a Babylon 5 Art Challenge for November 2025

When: November 1st to 30th

Rules: The objective is to try to draw something inspired by each word prompt using the palette provided. You must use both word prompt and palette. 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! If you have any questions about anything else, please feel free to send an ask. This started as an art challenge, but writers are welcome and encouraged to participate as well using the word prompts.

Apologies for any disappointment. I've really enjoyed running this little event, but I think I have to accept I have neither the time nor motivation to put my best efforts into it anymore, even for one last go. I created it because I loved Babylon 5 and loved B5 fandom and wanted to make something fun for everybody to take part in, and I hope I have managed to do that over the last four years.

RULES: Draw something B5 related inspired using the palette and word prompt provided. Post your fills by the end of January with the tag #minvember monthly, or @‘ing this blog. Writers are welcome to join in using just the word prompt (unless you feel like giving yourself the extra challenge of trying to incorporate the palette into your fic - it has been done!).

B5 Minvember Monthly Prompt December 2025: BITTER

[Hex Codes: #164559-#f2275d-#f24141-#19d11a-#19d11a]

RULES: Draw something B5 related inspired using the palette and word prompt provided. Post your fills by the end of December with the tag #minvember monthly, or @‘ing this blog.

It's always lovely seeing everyone's beautiful artwork (and website designs!) and so much enthusiasm and love for Babylon 5! And don't worry if you didn't manage to finish every fill - it's all about having fun and being creative, not about stressing over deadlines.

Monthly prompts will now resume and I'll be posting the prompt for December later today, so keep an eye out for that! Alternatively, if you haven't finished the 6 main event prompts, feel free to continue on those (I know I will, haha) and remember to tag them #minvember or @ us here so I can catch them and reblog.
