Weekly Drills 092 - #Smartwatch

This week's challenge invites you to showcase your digital art skills by recreating an existing smartwatch. When you're finished, share your creation on your Rookies profile, tagging it with #RookiesWeeklyDrills and #Smartwatch.

Brief

In this week's Weekly Drills, we're putting your precision and digital artistry to the test. Your mission is to meticulously recreate an existing smartwatch in either 2D or 3D. Pay close attention to every button, texture, and design element as you bring this modern timepiece to life. Your recreation should be so spot-on that it could be mistaken for the real thing. This challenge is a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate your attention to detail and your ability to capture the essence of a well-known smartwatch. When you're done, proudly display your work on your Rookies profile, showcasing your skill in this tech-inspired challenge. Whether you're a budding artist or a seasoned pro, this task is perfect for honing your craft and adding a recognizable piece to your portfolio. Get ready to recreate the future of timekeeping! 🕐⌚
