Red face Art Trade

I somehow doubt this will catch on but I shall make an attempt.

We all have an artistic ability of some sort: be it drawing, painting, poetry, music, song, etc...And I was thinking it would be nice if we somehow randomly chose partners (for whoever wanted to participate) to do an art trade based on the other persons interests. So if Y was randomly chosen to be partners with X and Y liked potatoes and X liked beans, Y may write a song for X about beans and X may draw Y a potatoe. Does that make sense?

Meh, I just thought it would be a nice idea.

Hmm. I've never done an art trade...I can sort of draw I guess. It would depend on what the request was though. I am SHIT at people, mechanical things, celtic knotwork ect.

I can do dragons, unicorns, reasonable horses, I can do a nice lion-like anthro man...Not too bad at birds...Ok-ish at plantlife and insects....Despite being bad at actual people, I can do humanoid things like fairies.

Like I say, it depends on what I am asked for really.

I would if I could remember to send stuff through the mail. Might be good for me though. One step to stopping procrastination.

Toss my name in the hat.

ARGHHH, I am going to regret this.

That makes 8 people . Give it a deadline of tommorrow night? and then we'll do the matching thing. But if necessary it will be extended.

I am beaming with joy at the outcome of this...I feel like a proud kindergarten parent...XD

Eh. I'm not very good with art, but if you want me in... =P

I can do some digital art. Or some music. But I'm not good at composing.

Either post the link here or email it or IM it or whatever you choose. All I decide (or really the magic random hat decides) is the partners. All else is up to you, how you want to discuss the trade, how to commit the trade, whatever. It would of course be nice if everyone posted up their art on this thread so all could see but, whatever floats your boat.

So true. Unless one of you is not a 'regular' then it wouldn't quite work, would it? ^^

Is it too late to join? I can't really draw. I can do clothes designs and symbols, but otherwise in that field I've got nadda. But, I can paint pretty much anything you like. The catch is, though, that it'll iether have to be water colour or acrilic (however you spell it). I could write music, but no way of recording it.

Okay. We have 10 people and it is already tonight so I'll draw. I solemnly swear there will be no interference with the process whatsoever (as there was in a certain election of a certain idiot) and all choosings are random.

It is not too late to join providing:

You wait...Let me explain: Lets say Bob (excuse the generic name) wants to join. He posts that he is past the deadline. Later Joe sees the thread and also decides to join. He is automatically partenered with Bob.

Okay: let the process begin...!! *starts to put names in hat*

Smile Results

Alright:

Cyntrox and Honeythorn

Duckman and Deathchii

Gothic Piano and Porphyria

Saphyra Runa and Umbrellacake

Vyvian Blackthorne and Raineofblood



I personally must say: I'm thrilled to be with someone I like .
No, I'm serious: I didn't cheat, I'm just lucky in drawings! @_@
(I did a raffle once and I won a thousand bucks. I'm lucky. )
If anyone is seriously bothered by their partner you can switch but all that shitzle is up to you. Okay? Okay.
