Christmas Commission Swap

[Mr.Hades]

http://blogs.dixcdn.com/leftofcybercenter/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/xmas-superheroes.jpg

Hello!

The Christmas Commission Swap is pretty much as simple as it sounds. You post in this thread, indicating you wish to participate. Your name will go into a draw, where you'll get partnered up with someone else in this thread. From there, you communicate with the other party on what you'd like them to draw, then post your original work to one another ready for Christmas! Easy.

Deadline for entering 25th of October

As mentioned above, please post in this thread should you wanna piece of this action.

[NickRocks]

is this the same as the normal x-mas swap? if so count me in...if not, ill wait

[Spidey]

Why such a short deadline? Oh, wells. IN!

[writer wanted]

I'm in!

Sounds like fun.

[suitth5]

Count me in!

[thordad]

I LOVE CHRISTMAS !!! Im in :)

[fatmancomics]

Deadline still seems short to me seeing as how this is supposed to be for the end of Dec. but count me in.

[VicM]

Count me in too.

[Bathill8]

I think he is saying the deadline for announcing your participation is Oct 26th...not having the art finished! If that be the case then I'm in.

[pigeonmilk]

I am in like flynn sailing on a boat of chocolate flavored sin.

So we will just work out the details with that person?

[Spidey]

Yeah, Fats. The deadline is just for the sign-up thread so we can start pairing up artists for the swap. You'll have a little less than 2 months to finish your drawing.

[danielle_soloud]

i'm in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!! :omg:

[KrisDiaz]

in..........................

[blamito]

In.
We're mailing the original piece to our swap partner, correct?

[Spidey]

Yes. That is correct.

[fatmancomics]

Yeah, Fats. The deadline is just for the sign-up thread so we can start pairing up artists for the swap. You'll have a little less than 2 months to finish your drawing.

No, I get this; it just seems like there will be members who will see this come December and be like, "Where was I for the sign-up?"

[blamito]

Yes. That is correct.

Thanks, just wanted to make sue the guidelines were clear. Some sites do the swap and you just post it up online, and I realize they use post for mailing in the UK, but others might not. :)

[blamito]

No, I get this; it just seems like there will be members who will see this come December and be like, "Where was I for the sign-up?"

That usually happens every year no matter what. :)

[Spidey]

Well this year there will be plenty of time for people to see it and sign up and plenty of time for people to draw. The earlier the better.

[JosephNathanScout]

I'm In... :d

[bfowler]

I'm in. tencharacters

[kid vorpal]

Sign me up - missed out last year, was good for the two years previous. Always a lot of fun.

[brokenhill]

well I'm in and if you get paird up Me You already know What i want for art

[Spidey]

P.S. You guys don' have to believe in Jesus or Santa Claus.

[N.O.D.]

In.
Might be moving again, but I'll know and withdraw before the October deadline if that's the case.

[thEbrEEze]

I'm in! I've done this one year before and got a great piece from Karza. What happened to him did he go all pro on us?

[Turtle Boat]

so do we actually send the cards to our addresses?

[Spidey]

It's not going to be a card, it's going to be a full sized piece of art work. It only costs like $2 for a hard, 9x12 envelope and $3 to send via USPS within the states. Quite a little more for over seas, though.

[NickRocks]

i emailed vinnlander a full 11x17 piece last year and it only cost 7

[Turtle Boat]

alright this sounds fun. i'm in!!

[NickRocks]

lolz i just realized i said emailed. haha oh internet youve ruined me

[Diesel]

This sounds like a blast! Count me in!

[gadgetwk]

Sounds cool. I'm down.

[hydekomiksink]

I'm in too.... :-)
I like the idea of signing up early too. it gives everything a good amount of time to happen rather than opening this up during the holiday rush and no one having time to participate.

[Archerion]

Im in i do this every year.

[alfred183]

In!!
123456789

[Popninja]

Count me in, too. I love doing these.

[Bruce Lee]

I'm in, I reckon.

Loston

[ThreeEyesWorm]

Count me in!

[Uncontrolled_Parsnip]

Im in like Quinn!...Mallory...you know, in a Wormhole...Sliders joke...forget it.

[kid vorpal]

This didn't die, did it?

[NickRocks]

i hope not =\

[alfred183]

Ok, who's doing the pairing up? Let's gitterdone! :D

[Spidey]

Dan, I'm sure is really busy with mini-Dan so I'll do the pairing up. I'll post the list later tonight.

[Spidey]

We need one more guy. There's only 29 as is. 1 more guy to make it even. First come first serve.

[D.C.]

Sign me up!

I was bummed that I missed the deadline.

[Spidey]

Sweet! We're good now.

[Spidey]

Do you guys want me to post the list of matches or just pm you your partner?

[alfred183]

There's no reason to not make it public. Probably less work to just post it here.

[Spidey]

It is less work, but I figured some people would like to keep their partner secret.

[alfred183]

In that case, yeah, PM. That might help with people who won't necessarily check this thread too...

[Spidey]

Yeah, I'm going to PM as a heads up anyways.

Okay here it is:
pigeonmilk ● Bathill8
Mr.Hades ● thEbrEEze
Uncontrolled_Parsnip ● NickGuy
JosephNathanScout ● VIM22
danielle_soloud ● Diesel
D.C. ● Bruce Lee

blamito ● Writer Wanted

If your name is on the list you agree to send your partner your physical work. If you can't you must mutually agree on a digital only swap otherwise you will be repaired.

[alfred183]

Yay!! I got Wei. That's so awesome! :D

[Spidey]

Enjoy shipping to Canada, sucker! hahahaha!
j/k Wormy was in my top 5 list too.

[Popninja]

Needless to say, I am pleased with my pairing.

[writer wanted]

PMing was a great idea because I didn't really keep tabs on this thread.

I'm glad to see this is working out!

[writer wanted]

I also think everybody should post their art here when it's done just so everybody can see all of them.

[alfred183]

That seems like a cool idea to me, though some people might not want to do that.

[Spidey]

You can ask your partner if they're cool with you posting the art here or wait until they receive it and have them scan it.

[Heist]

every year i miss out on this... /doh ><, i only check this section once in a while. well, have fun guys while i kick myself in the ass.

[eric_blitz]

Damn to late to join. Oh well, maybe next year lol

[Mechangel]

I didn't know the signup started in October, due to being sick for about 5 weeks (asthma attack, cold virus, then drug resistant pneumonia).

So I guess I'm too late.... I can't get in on this?

But I do start the DeviantArt Holiday Art Swap signup in mid-November: http://mechangel2002.deviantart.com/journal/28423218/

Anyone over on DA wanting to participate is welcome to sign up until November 30th. Then the pairs are posted December 2nd.

[Diesel]

For those of you that are late: you could just PM each other and agree to do a swap.....

[alfred183]

Here is my commission to ThreeEyesWorm of his original character, "Alex" from his webcomic Anatta.

http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a377/alfred183/Anatta/anatta_small.jpg

[NickRocks]

[blamito]

[Mechangel]

Signup for the DA Holiday Art Swap ends on Monday night around 11pm PST!

[writer wanted]

OK, now that it's Feb, How many people did and sent a swap drawing but did not get one back?

[blamito]

I can't even begin to say how sorry I am that I am so late. It will be in the mail tomorrow with some extras. I promise.

[brokenhill]

I'm still waiting,but i did get a PM that it would be late.

[Mr.Hades]

Didn't get mine yet. PM'd my dude about sending mine to him, but have not heard back... *sob*

[writer wanted]

Recieved mine today. Not just the character I requested but a seperate piece as well. Both are really nice.

And, too be fair, my partner did let me know in December that the art would be late.

[brokenhill]

I'm still waiting, holding out hope

[necoo]

I think he is saying the deadline for announcing your participation is Oct 26th...not having the art finished! If that be the case then I'm in.

[Commantis24]

Awesome, thanks so much!

[Mechangel]
