I'm a bit confused. I think I'll sign up with a generic "woot," but a little more detail could be helpful. And maybe a donut, while you're at it. Boston creme, preferably. Or maybe ice cream.

Lykan

09-13-2006, 08:55 PM

Wait, they make Ice Cream donuts?

Well, this is how it works:

You sign up. Then, someone can offer a trade. What essentially happens is you do one of the other avatarists avis in your own style, and vise versa.

That better, or am I still about as clear as mud?

ElfLad

09-13-2006, 08:55 PM

I'll also sign up, but more details, plz.

That's good, thanks.

NEO|Phyte

09-13-2006, 09:03 PM

Color me interested, with a light shade of may not have the spare time depending on when stuff happens

Omen

09-13-2006, 09:13 PM

So if I get this straight I could offer a trade with Neo for an example.

If excepted, he would draw my current avatar and I would do his?

Is it only the current avatar or could it be - I'll trade Sneak if he will do this...

http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g70/omen_darkwoods/TasBow.gif

I will reciprocate by drawing one of his that he wants me to redo in my style?

*That was only an example Sneak ;D *

Lykan

Ceika

09-13-2006, 09:15 PM

*looks around* Hey, looks good... You can put my name on the list.

AmberVael

09-13-2006, 09:17 PM

Interesting. I might could get into this. Sign me up, but don't charge my credit card. ;D

Ego Slayer

09-13-2006, 09:26 PM

Ooh, this looks interesting. Not sure if I've got the skillz for it yet but it can't hurt to try.

Lykan

09-13-2006, 09:28 PM

I think this is how this should work: Dif through your portfolios and display any avis you'd like to be done during a trade. The avi does not need to have the same pose. That work?

Here'd be my queue:

http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i311/ChimeraHybrid/My%20avis/Pho.gifhttp://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i311/ChimeraHybrid/My%20avis/Kreph.gifhttp://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i311/ChimeraHybrid/My%20avis/Lykan1-1.gif

Sneak

09-13-2006, 09:30 PM

Aha. I get it. The awesome overwhelms me. It's like being caught in the fearsome undertow of salmon going upstream while sniffing glue. Or something equally poetic.

So, anyone wish to propose a trade?

Lykan

09-13-2006, 09:39 PM

Sure, I'll bite Sneak.

AmberVael

09-13-2006, 09:41 PM

I'll trade what I'm smoking for what you're smoking, Sneak.

But more seriously:
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h107/sjunderw/The-Masters-1.gifhttp://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h107/sjunderw/DancingMan.gifhttp://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h107/sjunderw/Earin-Elya.gif
I'm interested in seeing someone else's take on any of them.

Sneak

09-13-2006, 09:42 PM

Alrighty then, oh mighty one (Lykan: putting the 'groin-punch' in 'lycanthrope' since '06). Then I guess you'll draw my avatar.

Uhh...

...what do I draw?

Ceika

09-13-2006, 09:44 PM

Earin, I'll take a shot at one of yours... you have a preference for me?

I'd like to see your rendition of either my current avatar, or of this similar one: http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/wolfshonor/mine/Ceika9.gif

Pose and clothing completely up to you.

Lykan

09-13-2006, 09:45 PM

Alrighty then, oh mighty one (Lykan: putting the 'groin-punch' in 'lycanthrope' since '06). *Then I guess you'll draw my avatar.

Uhh...

...what do I draw?
Well... Anyone that we offer...

AmberVael

09-13-2006, 09:53 PM

Personally, I'd like to see someone draw the middle guy. He is a rather old creation of mine, not as in an old avatar, but an old idea. Your choice though.
And I've gotta try making that cool hat.

Ceika

09-13-2006, 09:55 PM

Ok, the middle guy it is!

Lykan

09-13-2006, 10:06 PM

Now just to find a USB mouse...

I really hate my computer.

AmberVael

09-13-2006, 10:34 PM

Meh. I still use touchpad. It works fine for avatars.

I'll trade with you.

Choose one of those and give me one of yours to do. And feel free to pose them however you like.

Ceika

09-13-2006, 11:06 PM

One Dancing Dude for Earin!

http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/wolfshonor/gifs/earin1.gif

And I'm down for the night. G'night all!

Dragon_Rider

09-13-2006, 11:09 PM

Is it just me or did Ceika do that avatar in exactly one hour and eleven minutes?

AmberVael

09-13-2006, 11:10 PM

I'm surprised it took her that long.

Lykan

09-13-2006, 11:10 PM

Is it just me or did Ceika do that avatar in exactly one hour and eleven minutes?
You misunderstand the powers of the grand mistress of avi making...

Ceika

09-13-2006, 11:11 PM

Actually, Ceika did that avatar in about 45 mintues... I was already working on the Groucho Marx avatar for the Request an avatar thread. Had to finish that one up before I started in on this one. *grins*

AmberVael

09-14-2006, 12:07 AM

Well, I couldn't fit in the hat, but:
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h107/sjunderw/Ceika-FN.gif
Think I did a good job? I like having reference pics...

Oh, and I find your version of the Dancing Man quite good, and amusingly accurate.

Ceika

09-14-2006, 08:34 AM

Earin, that's really cool! I love how it turned out!

Kyrian

09-14-2006, 08:59 AM

Hey Earin, can you do my current Kyrian? If Ceika's ok with that...

LoopyZebra

09-14-2006, 09:57 AM

I think I'll participate in this, although I can't make anything till this weekend.

AmberVael

09-14-2006, 10:56 AM

Kyrian, as soon as Ceika approves, I'm on it.

Ceika

09-14-2006, 12:08 PM

Earin, I'm guessing he wants that as a part of the trade? If so, I'll take a shot at your current avatar later on today if you want to try your hand at Kyrian.

AmberVael

09-14-2006, 12:25 PM

That'll be fine. I'm going to boot up my laptop now. One Kyrian, FN style, coming right up.

Lykan

09-14-2006, 04:36 PM

So... Anyone want to trade with me? I've got Sneak's done... Just need to fine tune it a bit once I find a mouse.

Sneak

09-14-2006, 04:37 PM

I'll bite, Lykan, but...what should I trade with? Obviously not your current avatar.

Lykan

09-14-2006, 09:33 PM

Well... I've got a few things you can choose from on the 1st page... Any of those are good.

http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i311/ChimeraHybrid/My%20avis/Deadsneak3.gif

Here you go Sneak!

Omen

09-14-2006, 09:49 PM

I was never really happy with my Under World avatar...

http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g70/omen_darkwoods/KB20.gif

I would love for someone to do me a Kate Beckinsale (aka Selene) from the movie. Any pose will do.

So if you want to trade let me know. ;)

NEO|Phyte

09-14-2006, 10:20 PM

Right then, I declare anything in my photobucket album (see link in sig) to be fair game for an art trade.

As for some specifics that I'd like to see another's take on...

Loren_and_Kivsith

09-15-2006, 11:20 AM

Hmm. *I think I'll sign up, for the purpose of honing my fledgeling avatar-making skillz. *Anywho, my characters are as follows:
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/tobey158/Laurinbackground4.pnghttp://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/tobey158/Lorenbackground3.png
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/tobey158/Vaetheldionbackground.pnghttp://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/tobey158/Attaiembackground.png
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/tobey158/Kivsithbackground.pnghttp://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/tobey158/Sikthivbackground.png
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/tobey158/Daraibackground4.pnghttp://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/tobey158/Sethbackground3.png

You may have noticed that they all have backgrounds. *This is because I can't get GIMP to load on my computer, and eventually I just got tired of arguing with it, and surrendered. *And white backgrounds are just . . . icky. *So if you want me to create one of your characters, it would be excellent if you could specify a background. *Otherwise, I pick the background. *Which means that there's some chance they could wind up in a circus. *Walking the tightrope. *Above a clown who juggles live chihuahuas. * ;D

Disclaimer: I am new at this, so it may take a long time for more complicated characters, and they may not be very good.

Chris the Pontifex

09-15-2006, 12:53 PM

hmm I'll join Lets find something to trade....
I think I'll just give some suggestions and let someone else pick one

I think these are some of my best:
A drow I drew for Darius
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y2/chrishattink/Darius-Drow.gif

my current av
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y2/chrishattink/Pontifex_501.gif
or any variant on this (you may find them scattered about the photobucket)

http://tinyurl.com/jqruo
one more recent

Although some of my best are among them, no Amiria's, she has been redrawn by Ink already. I dont think anyone here is going to top that. Same goes for Death and the nudatars.

Ceika

09-17-2006, 09:10 AM

I certainly don't mind, if Earin doesn't mind...

Erin, I'll have your trade for the Kyrian avvie soon, I hope, but RL has been getting in the way. Look for something tomorrow....

AmberVael

09-17-2006, 10:12 AM

So, I'll swap you one.

Probably the most NON-OotS avatar I've done, but I tried to keep the style somewhat. *It is definately MY style though, lol, and that's what the swap is about. *Enjoy.

Oh god...So tempting...But I know I'd make it look like carp. Maybe later. I have a request to do right now. Do you think you could bear with me for a couple of days?
