This week we want you to create a treasure chest then simply tag it #RookiesWeeklyDrills and #TreasureChest.

Everyone of us at some point has dreamt of uncovering a treasure chest full of loot. Lots of you have already done this virtually, and it's a huge rush. This week we want you to create a treasure chest that you'd love to discover yourself. It can be 2D or 3D. You can create a photorealistic version that could be used integrated into a live action plate. Or you could create a stylised version used in a game. You could even create a concept design for one you'd love to see someone bring to life.

To get some feedback on your work-in-progress project before you submit it, head over to Discord channel and chat with other artists having a crack. To see all the Weekly Drill projects just follow this link.
