So, if I may, how exactly do these swaps work? I’d like to participate in the next one!
Basically, you sign up for it and are matched up randomly to another person. When you join the swap you may make basic requests such as a sculpt you’d like to receive or paint, sculpts you’d like not to receive or paint and possible themes. It doesn’t always mean you get that but we often try to accommodate. When sign up ends you are sent that snipit that your swappee requested. You usually do not paint for the person painting for you but sometimes it happens.
Usually you have about 8 week total to order and paint for your swappee. (10 this time because of Christmas and the late start) Towards the end, i verify that everyone has finished and send the addresses out and they all ship on or around the same date and we all wait for our surprise to come in the mail. We often have new and veteran painters a like and sometimes even the Windstone Folks or Melody join in! (this time I got BiPolarBear to enter 🙂 )
Your only associated cost is that of your sculpts and shipping to your swappee. Small rule of thumb, generally no muses unless they specifically request them and if you paint a foo puppy you have to do at least two to be fair.And basically thats it! It’s fun and they are usually at least twice a year.

My area has been having some nasty winter weather, so wasn’t able to get him mailed this weekend as I’d planned and now won’t be off work in time to do so until this weekend. Sorry. But he is ready and coming your way shortly!
January 10, 2017 at 4:44 am #1518752Sent yesterday.I would love to see her face when she opens it.

Male Hearth....one day🤞Dream on.January 10, 2017 at 12:18 pm #1518816I was able to get mine out in the mail yesterday but it’s going to take about a week to get there. I might be waiting anxiously in the meantime–pins and needles whilst I await a reaction!
January 10, 2017 at 7:01 pm #1518843Mine will go out either this weekend or Monday morning. This week has turned crazy with work.
