The Daily Qurator #285
Welcome to the 285th Daily Edition of the Daily Qurator. Below you will find some awesome members of @qurator that worked hard to post some good quality content for all you awesome Steemians to enjoy!
The @qurator project was created to help give Steemians some extra exposure and awesome upvotes currently worth around $0.01 - $3.89!
Note: some of you have been curated twice since the start of the daily qurator and some have been curated only once. As the Daily Qurator is gaining fame with every passing day, many new steemians are asking/will ask to join us. So, expect to see posts from new users for now. When the opportunity arises, posts from older users will be curated once again

Life At Full Throttle Lately...
Busy is an understatement when it comes to life lately. My son recently graduated high school, family and friends have been in town, we had a couple parties at our house, I've had a bunch of photoshoots recently, and more... I feel a little guilty as I haven't had time to really dive into steemit friend's posts and videos and I feel like I'm missing out on some great content
Life has been extra busy for @scottshots and his family; and now he's heading out to the beach for camping, spending time with friends and even roasting marshmallows! I'm betting his future posts will be full of these fun moments from the mountains.

Vietnam- AN Adventurous Short Time IdyllIn East Asia
Since the wild ride was already going on, or rather the flight... A direct flight from Germany to the Vietnamese capital Hanoi takes about 12-14 hours depending on the starting point. This can be quite annoying in the economy class, but luckily The Revenant ran , so you can sleep well on the plane. Incidentally, the tomato juice was also delicious in the Vietnamese airline.
@snurk had a layover of sorts in Vietnam; from delicious looking food to views of Hanoi, come along for a tour of the quick visit and maybe share some of your own stories if you have ever visited the capital of Vietnam.

Medusa
A few days ago, I didn’t think I would enter @kommienezuspadt ’s Trials by Comics contest at all, because … it’s pretty hard isn’t it, for an artist to draw in another artist’s style? And more importantly, the nagging dreadful doubt of “what if it’s bad, then I might offend my favourite artist.” But I managed to ignore my fear and managed to make an entry, and it was received pretty well
Here is a step-by-step process of how @scrawly was able to draw an amazing image of how they depict Medusa. The end result is detailed with numerous snake heads and Medusa have a snake-like body. Check it out!

Comic Craft 10- Drafting Baldy 27
As promised, I'm giving you a breakdown of how I did "Comic Baldy#27"... Throughout the 11 hours I spent making the comic, I took 111 screenshots of my progress. I can't put the whole process in here today!
Today I'm just gonna show just the first part of my draft!
Do you remember ever using story boards to complete a project? @reconstitution uses one in this post to create their comic and they show you how it's done. Even the errors made

Standard Image Sourcing for the Qurator Project
Our local Sheriff @brumest wrote an nice and simple post about how to properly source images in order to pass the approval process for the Qurator Project. We see quite a lot of members who get rejected by not using the right images or sourcing incorrectly. We are bringing the hammer down on new and old members. We need to up the quality of posts and in that way up the rewards as well. We know that this might not be the most fun thing to do but in the long run it will pay off, being a respected Steemian/Qurite.

Steemauto Curation Trail
We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprize for a lucky trailer. =P
