I haven't been on here much lately, so I don't really know what I'm talking about, but having read up on it a bit, I thought I give you my two cents:
First of all, I have to give you two thumbs up for the VCU initiative, taking your time to think up and make assignments for the rest of us to learn is worth major awesomepoints!
Now, on to your questions:
Q:Do you think you will ever participate in a VCU challenge? Why?
A:Yes (if real life allows). Mainly because I could use the practice..
Q:What kind of challenge would you want to participate in?
A:As Puzzlething said; Anything that gets me out of my comfort zone really.
Q:Would a more interactive or group based thing be more appealing?
Uhmm.. I really don't know. the VOIDCHAT room is there, maybe it could be used as a "classroom" of sorts.
What can be done to make it better?
Reinstate the teacher. And by that I mean that the person making the thread should be responsible for constructive feedback (aka telling me what I am doing wrong). I know that would be asking a lot and not everyone has the time to be an art-teacher (for free!) on her/his spare time, but someone telling you what you are doing wrong would be greatly helpful..
More of an off-the-wall suggestion, what about lessons on livestream -audio/video about any subject (anatomy, posing, drapery, shading, coloring, perspective, storytelling, etc) ?
Well then, I shall also ask if anyone would have any interest in creating their own challenges?
Sure - aslong as he/she is up to the task.
