+ signs up,
Request: Draw any combination of Lilith Aelorothi, Nautilus, and Neikos: one of them, two together, or all three.
Lilith Aelorothi and Nautilus are romantically involved, and are extremely out-in-the-open about their relationship. Lilith is a skanky b***h whore, whereas Nautilus by contrast is an easily embarrassed "nice kind of guy."
Lilith Aelorothi and Neikos have a severe lust/hate relationship, and make a mutually enjoyed game out of hurting eachother (physically). Sometimes they almost have sex.
Nautilus and Neikos are two-parts best friends, with one-part rival and one-part way too similar to be on entirely good terms with each other. Neikos is adamant that Nautilus "will become him eventually," and Nautilus is both wholly repulsed by this notion, and by Neikos himself. But he's still the best friend Naut's got.

I'll DO it. + request: If you want, you can draw my adorable kitty. Her name is Myra Isabella. img1 img2 img3 - Bella or Beli for short. She loves bread, eating bugs, playing in cold water, and snuggling under the covers. Any style is okay, I just don't know what I'd request. If you do not want to draw my kitty, make a surprise drawing! I enjoy pinups and pretty things, like trees and feathers. Just give it a bit of a winter theme. 1) Sign up if you're interested ASAP: Join up, people!2) Should we set minimum or maximum spending? Hmm. I don't know anything about this.3) How long should we leave sign ups open for? I'll leave this sort of thinking up to smarter people.4) DEADLINE: I'm actually for making it January 15 or-so, instead of Christmas or New Years. Thoughts? Good idea. Let's.Here's my silly old art gallery to prove I'm not Anetra just trying to get more gifts: [dA link]

*Follows Rouk in off the streets* I would like to join! whee Request: I should dreadfully like some coyote and/or kitsune art (see my concept art). Can be based off of my style or otherwise, and if you don't like drawing animals, you can give them human forms. (They will have those anyway eventually, I just haven't found a design that works. crying ) I do like the deadline... What precisely shall be the rules of this?

Elkrim I do like the deadline... What precisely shall be the rules of this? At whatever point signups close and the actual exchange begins, everyone shall be paired at random with a request, PMed the name and request of the person they're to acquire an image for, and let loose to either a) draw the request, or b) commission someone else to do so. The image, regardless of where it's from or who draws it, must be finished by the deadline.

1. I'm in. 2. I don't know ... there's not really any way to enforce it - people will spend whatever they feel comfortable with (and if anyone is worried they won't get the same quality in return ... don't spend that much?). 3. If Jan. 15th is the reveal, then maybe December 15th can be the close? A month isn't too bad to get a commission filled - I for one am completely fine if the gift takes longer to come to fruition. 4. Sounds good to me. Request information:Any of my characters is fine - feel free to change anything you like. Other references can be found here and here.

Yeah, the main motivation to push the reveal back to Jan. 15 is to allow more time for people to filter back in and notice that they should sign up (ItrustyouwillbedraggingMekinbytheear<3<3).

1) Sign up if you're interested ASAP *signs up*2) Should we set minimum or maximum spending? That wouldn't do anything... people will spend how much they want anyway, and I doubt the receivers would be asking 'how much did you pay for that' xDDD3) How long should we leave sign ups open for, to give everyone ample time to make good on their half? I like the 15th December idea :34) DEADLINE: I'm actually for making it January 15 or-so, instead of Christmas or New Years. Thoughts? It's a bit less christmassy, true, but gives enough time :3Question from me... When we have the picture ready, can me send it out asap, or do we have to wait for the 15th ? Now, onto my request <3I'd like some Tistykins action, plz biggrin Here's the ref for all of his wingz of D00mness:  Tista, also known as the God of Chances One in a Million xD He doesn't wear these silly panties xD;; I just didn't clothe him to show the wings better, because the position of wings and their shape (especially the two on the head, andthe one on his right leg) is very, VERY important xD His hair is mostly white (not silver, white xD), with thick purple and turquise strands. His eyes change between these two colors, but usually show a bit of both. His body is very feminine, and please no muscly muscles xDDD Here's his usual outfit: [x]It's all in black. And the stone on his arm actually grows from his body. The zippers on the pants are so that he could actually, um, wear the pants? xDDD They aren't meant to be visible. Now, if you're up to doing a couple, here's some possibilities: 1. Tista+Yumehayla 2. Tista+Rinneru 3. Tista+Ligia 1. Yumehayla: [x][x]Yumeh's the king, who liked wandering between worlds a bit too much. It's a bit complicated - Tista appeared inside of Yumeh's mind when the crystal was implanted into his mind, and was slowly taking over, changing them both, till they became practically one being... And then, it was just Tista. Any pictures with those two welcome some sort of surreality/being oriented around feelings, since they never had the posibility to actually meet, since they share the same body. Though, they became really close friends :32. Rinneru Rin was Yumehayla's twin sister, and they looked practically the same. Yumeh always was leaving home for many years, and then comming back, so Rin wasn't worried... Till she heard that her brother's body was possesed. She found him finally, but only a moments after Yumeh was no more. She had a feeling that if she only worried a bit more, went out a bit sooner, she could've at least say goodbye to her brother... So to atone, this once pricess stayed to be Tista's servant. Her hair are white, and eyes silver, just like her brother's. Her clothes are mostly black, with a white undershirt, and some silver detailings. Her hair is the same lenght as her brother's, though caught up like on the sketchy samples, with some ornaments. The clothes she wears is something like a butler's/male servant's outfit.3. Ligia [x]Ligia was the high priestess of Tista, from the days before he needed to be reborn. When she heard that her master's back, she hurried to find him, and there was much rejoycing xDDD She loves her God deeply, and she always seems way too cheerful, making others thing that she's a bit crazy xD

For deadline - Jan 15, or I'm dropping out. If Jan 15 is deadline, don't start later than Dec 15. As for spending, irrelevant for me - I'm going to draw it myself. --- As a request - please keep specific-holiday imagery out of it (ie - Santa hats, nativity, crosses, menorahs). It would just be out of place. On the other hand, winter-themed stuff (like polar bears, snow, pine trees) are awesome. Also, you're welcome to draw him with or without wings and/or alter his costume. Although he is 1200s Europe, you are welcome to put him in another time period (egypt, steampunk, modern, japan, to make a few). However, please do NOT forget the cross-scar on his face. ;_; <3 If you want to know a little about him - Rivek is a swordsman-archer on a contract with the government who doesn't exist on paper because of religious reasons. He has mixed feelings about his position - he's in love with his boss, but he hates being metaphorically leashed. Nevertheless, without the law, he would still be just as dedicated to her. As a result, although he stays distant in public, he's not afraid to speak his mind when they are in private. When you get to know him, you realize, behind the logical exterior, is a sarcastic sense of humor which is a further mask for his intense loyalty. His blood is so dark red it's almost black because he's a mage. His powers, though are limited. All he can really do is talk to birds and turn into a peregrine falcon, which enhances his human speed and eyesight. Here are references and writing by me: http://fongmingyun.deviantart.com/gallery/#Mondigan You can find references here, drawn by other people: http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c32/rivekailinar/Mondigan/Year 1200s/Rivek Ailinar/ Even though I'm just requesting Rivek, if you're interested in checking out the other characters from the storyline, there is his sister, Mirab; his lover, Will; and his best friend, Bohren. References with more than one character: http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c32/rivekailinar/Mondigan/Year 1200s/

Hmm! Well, I don't know. I mean, if we all get ahold of everyone else we could try to get this started for the 30th instead of the 15th? Though that'll kind of screw over the people in this guild who aren't buddybuddy with people keeping up.
