In honor of something that I saw just some time ago, I decided to try and throw out something fun for us to do together as a guild! Welcome to the, quite fittingly named, FEFburary Ripoff Month. (As I decided to go and rip off the idea altogether, it fits with the theme.) Basically, it's something for the artists, or people wanting to get on the fun, of FEF to get together and enjoy ourselves with. At one point or another, we were all the type of person who wanted to be in our favorite series, or who thought something someone came up with was so amazing that they wanted to have something like it or to be apart of it. This is about remembering that time, and poking a little bit of fun at ourselves. [On top of a few laughs between the original owners and the artists.] Basically, this is an announcement and a sign-up for people willing to either offer OCs for the first week, or people willing to go the full-month! Not that excited about one week or just don't have the time? Don't worry about it, just do what you want or what you can. Just have fun!
The Schedule
Quote:
Week 1: “‘Steal’ Original Characters from your friends!”
-THE MONTH LONG THEME. Make a “Fan Character” based off of your friends’ original characters. Redraw them with a new look, a new name, and a TERRIBLE BACKSTORY. Give them a new paintjob, or dont. Dress them up in new threads, or LESS threads. YOU MUST include in the description "This character is based off of (Character’s Name) who belongs to (Said Owner)".Nothing is actually being stolen as this is the magic of satire at work here!
Week 2: “‘Steal’ your OWN Original Characters!”
-Did somebody just have the nerve to recolor YOUR character? But it looks so trashy! Show them how its done! Make a terrible recolor or reskin of YOUR OWN most beloved original character that’ll put the others to shame!
Week 3: “Draw your old embarassing fan characters and self inserts!”
-We all went through that stage growing up as an artist, and most of us would like to forget about it, but THIS WEEK its time to get them out of the closet! Show us how creative you were (or weren't). If you DON'T have any past fan characters or self inserts, but you can always repeat Week 1’s theme if you don't apply to this one
Week 4: “Make a BRAND NEW FAN CHARACTER”
-Oh man that anime you’re into right now is really cool! And that game you’re obsessed with lately is really fun! It almost makes you want to make a new self insert for your current favorite series’ doesn't it? C’mon give it a shot! Tell us about what character from the show they’re dating too, and their special powers, and how much they hate themselves!

Also, adding in a secondary claue for the events: Since our own FE canons are basically OCs at this point, members are allowed to claim, with permission, or volunteer others/their own Canons. However, I'm going to be limiting this to active canon characters! For Weeks 1 and 2, since this is an quite unofficial, but still guild, event, I'd prefer for FEF OCs to be used. After that, have at it kiddos! [Though you are always welcome to do this on your own!]
The Tributes
Have an OC you're willing to put up on the chopping block for Weeks 1 and sub-Week 3? Go ahead and post, even if you're not going to be participating yourself! Already given permission to someone else specifically? Just have them or yourself announce it so I can make a note. For this to be the best that it can be, I'd prefer one artist to one OC, though the same artist is more than welcome to draw another!
