    Augh I fucked up and gave someone the same person twice, even though I TRIED not to. Does anybody want to switch? Anyone aside from the person this guy got?

    I have not started drawing yet and am not committed to an idea yet. I can swap if need be :)

    Gosh, I don't want to leave my Santa with nothing to go on, but I really am easy to please. I like animals a lot, especially the funny looking ones like tapirs, nautiluses, kakapos, mouse deer, or anything else. Insects are a big favorite of mine, particularly beetles. I also like monsters you make up from imagination. Anything imaginative really, or silly, or sweet, just have fun with it :)
    Oh, and pictures just in case:

    gah I should put in a list of things I like I guess! I dunno, here's a random list off the top of my head

    - film: Dave McKean, Jim Henson, Terry Gilliam, Coen Brothers, Guillermo del Toro
    - comics: Asterix and Obelix
    - artists: Mervyn Peake, Edward Gorey, Graeme Base ... anything with lots of detail and line
    - books: everything ever, basically, but for visual inspiration then cyberpunk and sci-fi
    - music: ... ok too much but lately I've mostly been listening to Josh Ritter, Andrew Bird, kd lang, Amy Winehouse, Kate Rusby, Leonard Cohen
    - other interests: robots and insects

    ... so it turns out my head is too tired to think of much useful sorry

    I think I might have bitten off more than I can chew with this one. I have something that's submittable right now, but I don't think it's going to be quite as polished as I'd hoped. Still I'll do as much as I can!

    Flay on
  • MustangMustang Arbiter of Unpopular Opinions Registered User regular
    I cut back my idea considerably, because there was no way I was going to get done in time.
    I'm pretty well much done, but I don't think I'm going to be able to polish it up as much as I would like to. After today I really don't have time to do anymore work to it.

  • tapeslingertapeslinger Space Unicorn Slush Ranger Social Justice Rebel ScumRegistered User regular
    I am neck-deep in mine, I'm hoping to finish it up and get it photographed on Monday and get the typography on there on Tuesday... hmm

    it's an interesting experiment for me, definitely a new direction, heh.

  • MustangMustang Arbiter of Unpopular Opinions Registered User regular
    Alright I'm done and sent. Hopefully my person thinks it's slightly better than terrible.

  • tynictynic PICNIC BADASS Registered User, ClubPA regular
    Turns out I was right, I really didn't have time to do this. I'll have something for the deadline, but it probably won't be finished - I'll have to polish it off afterwards.

  • earthwormadamearthwormadam ancient crust Registered User regular
    Made some good progress on my SS today, thank you for having sexcellent taste in pretty much everything, in turn giving me a choice of awesome things that I'd want to draw anyways.

  • MustangMustang Arbiter of Unpopular Opinions Registered User regular

  • earthwormadamearthwormadam ancient crust Registered User regular
