The forum has been collecting dust for a few minutes but it isn't dead! Unless no one signs up for this, har har.
This is a normal sketch trade, where we will each draw something for the person assigned to us! So everyone who signs up should provide a suggestion/s for what they'd like to have drawn for them. List of characters, link to character page, or even something random you'd like to see, such as a dog playing with a beach ball? The possibilities are endless, hah.
Duration: one month! Just post it by the end of September. :> requirements: sketch! not too much pressure. whatever is comfortable for you. feel free to go all out if you want, though, no limits!

I shall sign up cause I need to draw something. if you get assigned to me I'd like to see... one of my characters? Any one that interests you! And if you feel inspired, draw them wearing Y2K fashion, heh heh. If not do whatever you feel. :> link to my character bios: showquestlog.unsatisfiedjalapeno.com/ocs2.html

Ok, so apparently I somehow mixed up a trade with only three people. sO uhhh, hopefully I was correct to draw for Sarah. xD Akiko, inspired by the conversation about what instruments our characters would play. i gave her a taiko drum, i think this one is called a katsugi oke? Attachments:

Aaaah I love this. I saw it at first when I was sitting next to the river which was nice:3 also I had an old style fangirl "omg shes so hawt!1" moment which doesn't happen to me very often anymore. So thank you for making me fall in love with my own character xD
Anyway. I love how you drew the drum. The braided strap is a nice touch for sure but the whole thing is just so detailed and cool. I also like the way you did the shading. It looks so painterly ;; her face and the muscles in her arms are done so beautifully. Thank you so much!!

I have an Ember for Amy <3 She was really fun to draw. It's been a while since I've done any high fantasy art and she and Blinky are great just in general ;;

Sarah, you absolute LEGEND!!! Omg this is just phenomenal and it makes me so happy right down to my toes!! <3 The detail in this is just amazing and the motion and life you gave everything! You make me want to draw Ember cheerfully doing devious and sneaky things! Thank you!! <3
Ray, I love your Akiko! The drum was a great idea, and I love the subtle textures and details you have in the art <3

Ray, here is an Ellie sketch! Sorry, I was looking through Y2K fashion examples and I completely failed to make an outfit that read as such ;_;

Ahhh omg, ellie!! She looks totally adorable and determined! holy crap, I love this to pieces, every little detail is perfect. ;; What she is wearing is very much something she would wear regardless of time period inspiration, so I think it's great. xD graah, she's so cute!! *grabs drawing and places it into my art hoard* >:D thank you, Amy!!
also: glad you thought Akiko was hot, Sarah!!! >:D

Aaahh its so great:D! Im sure this is roughly the billionth time I've said this but your pencils are so gorgeous and smooth. The textures on the fabric and hair are great too. Also I wore overalls like that in the late 90s :9
