      I’ve finished mine and am just putting the final coat on it. I like what I did and hope my swapee does as well. I feel that these swaps help those of use who are so-so painters get some practice in. I enjoy seeing what people get and am curious to see what my swap partner painted for me. Swap pieces are a part of the person who painted them–unique and special.

          I think that’s a big appeal of the swaps. Seeing a large number of new pieces and the diverse number of ideas that show up all at once. It’s very exciting and I can hardly wait to see who painted for me and what they painted. I agree it’s also a good way to get more practice at painting.

          It’s also a good way to get your work seen since the PYO gallery has been restructured. Even though the new PYO gallery is very easy to navigate it’s a little difficult to figure out what the newest additions are now.

          On a side note, I’ve double boxed my piece up so it’s ready to ship! Just have to wait until November now! Oh and I took pictures of it before I boxed it up…so no worries there. Besides, it’s safer for me to box now…I have cats that have chewed on my PYO pieces in the past! T_T

          Mine is pretty much done and I sure hope my swap person likes it. My first time doing one like this and I am ubber worried they will dislike it. Nervous!! I worked killer hard to get it right and have tried to take photos but I cannot get a pic to show the detailing right. Camera color off, to bright of light, to dark, wrong background!!!! This is the first one I have fretted over so much….. Cross my fingers my swap person sees that I tried to give what they asked even if I may have fallen a little short. Feelin a little apprehensive about this one

            I finally get to start mine this weekend. I’ve known what I’ve wanted to do since I got my swapee’s request/preferences and I’ve been itching to start, but I needed to get caught up on a few things first. I should have it done (or down to finishing touches) by next weekend.

              I’m in the same boat as Siberakh! I’m raring to start but alas I gotta wait a few more days until other stuff is out of the way. D:

                You guys are in good company!
                I’ve only had two painting sessions so far and hope to get another in maybe this Sunday for a couple of hours, then my next available time would be next weekend. Then again on Nov. 15 I’ll have another big chunk of time to have at least a 1/2 day paint party. I hope to finish then!

                Good luck to you! 🙂

                    Since it’s tough for me to do painting during the week or evenings, I’m doing painting sessions on weekends – mostly on Sundays. I’d say I’m about 2/3 done with my detail painting, and it’s coming along nicely! Once done with my details, hopefully by 11/3 or so, then I need to clear coat, antique, and do the final clear coat, etc to finish.

                    I’ll probably get the lion-share done by 11/15, then just have the final clear coat and eyes, etc. done between 11/17 – 11/19 depending upon drying time. I believe I’m on track to ship by the 11/22 date.

                    I’ve been photographing my piece in stages as I paint, and my co-workers and Mom are really excited about seeing how the PYO is progressing. It’s been really fun so far!

                      I’ve just got finishing details to do. It’s turning out really well.

                        Just finally got a base coat on tonight – yippeee! Probably going to do most (if not all) of my painting tomorrow because I plan on giving it my full attention all day long. Very excited!

                            I have progress! Most of the painting done, just fine details and antiquing then finish work left to do. 😀 I hope my swap partner likes it!
