Possibly stupid question – I’ve never done one of these before. What is acceptable to request as color or theme? Mostly I’m just afraid that the request I get may be more than I can handle. Newbie concerns 😛
Some people say they want a galaxy theme, and others just give the artist free reign… There’s nothing more acceptable than another.
Cool, thanks. I’m sure I’m just over-thinking it.
April 10, 2014 at 4:01 am #911333To melody, susie and such: Is there any chance of the kittygriffs, father foos or other new pyo being ready in time or at some point during the swap??
I have no idea what is holding up the process, but yes, they should be “out” really soon! They just need pads and they are good to go.
-the pyo flapcat too.AAAAH oh my gosh this is so exciting! I can’t wait to see them in the store!!
I’ll be sitting out this one, but I’m looking forwards to seeing what everyone comes up with! 😀
Check out my finished artwork at http://falcolf.deviantart.com/ and my sketch/studio blog at http://rosannapbrost.tumblr.com/
Excellent!
April 10, 2014 at 4:38 am #911336I might enter, but will depend on if the new PYO sculpts are released in time. *fingers crossed* 😀
April 10, 2014 at 12:05 pm #911340Oh boy!I love these swaps! Thank you, Dragonmedly for organizing them! They are really fun.

This will be my second swap, so dandrusky13’s question is a good one for us ‘Swap’ Newbies … I could probably understand what a request for ‘earth tone colors’ or colors based on a bird breed might be. And I can guess that a ‘galaxy’ theme might be night sky colors and stars, maybe in some recognizable constellation pattern, or with a background silhouette at the base of the sculpt with a star field painted at the top part, but I’m not sure that is what more experienced swapers would consider ‘galaxy’ themed, and I’d like to do a sculpt as close to what the swapee might want as possible.
Would it be okay if the swapee could be more specific for a color/theme request, such as the ‘galaxy’ example you mentioned, and perhaps provide a link to an inspiration/idea, which would convey their request more fully for those of us newer to the swaps?

Mary only gets 2-3 weeks off and we are not sure when they will be yet, plan to go visit my bio mom whom I have not yet met, and want to try and figure out if we could make it to corvallis for week too. We still gotta figure it all out. We have a lot of planning still…

A lot of people provide links to pictures for such schemes, so have no fear! And if you draw a blank when you receive your “order”, let me know and we’ll work it out – this is supposed to be fun, not stressful!

April 11, 2014 at 1:52 am #911355I’m so busy lately and have three PYOs that I need to finish (along with a host of other projects) but I am so tempted to join in. I’ve had art on the brain lately and I need to get it out somehow.
April 12, 2014 at 8:44 pm #911413Melody, do you ever join the swaps?
I usually do. Last time I didn’t participate because I did the art card swap instead.
April 12, 2014 at 8:50 pm #911414I like to have some general guidelines when painting something for someone… like what colors they like.

Yippee!!
This is my first swap.
Yahoo! Laundry2011 is making me join. She says she’ll make sure we are home for the ship date, but we have not sent our entries in yet.
