Next, the greylist of people who have turned in their late image, but cannot rejoin the exchange until NEXT month.

-

And here's the sign-up form for the exchange. All fields in the About The Image section are optional, and speak of the image that you hope to receive. Copy-paste it into a new post and fill it out in this thread.

If you must link to anything (references, music, etc.) DO NOT USE THE "URL" TAG! PLEASE include the full url itself. When I copy-paste, linked words turn into pure text, and I don't always remember to grab the url out of the link.

Sign-ups will be open through December 8th.

When the round begins, make sure you get your image in on time! If you are late with the image you owe and did not fall prey to exonerating circumstances over the month (i.e. forgetting is not an excuse; family emergencies are) your re-joining of the exchange will be delayed until the month AFTER you finally turn in your image. So for example, if you were late for February and turn your image in any time in March, you will be allowed to join again in April.

During the round, if you need to secretly ask a question of the person you received, you can use the ExchangeTracker thread to do so.

After the round, when you've uploaded the dragon you received, don't forget to add it to the Dragon Exchange Database!

And hurrah! Everybody turned in their art last month!

[About You]
Username: Rachael
Email: ashenpaw (@) gmail.com

[About the Image]
Colors: Reds or Blues or Silvers!
Features: A horn or horns, either reindeer, moose, or ram, with hooves, sentient, non-bonding, with a wicked awesome tail perhaps? Love manes or braids or feathers being woven in - a more equine or even vulpine, possibly deer-like build and/or structure. Able to assume a semi-human or human form. Not needing a bond, being perhaps an independent race rather than the normal dragon seen around these parts or other such dependents.
Species: Err, I suppose the above describes this. Wings would be nifty, too. =D
Theme: Winter, Snowstorm, being snowed in, crisp fresh winter's night (where the sky is never black nor blue), happiness, warmth, warm fire, hot cocoa, hot cider... Heh, somehow that is a theme.
Gender: Male or female.
Name: I'd love to name them when I see them, or you name them if struck!

Theme: Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas. In light of the upcoming holidays and continuing with my movie theme, I decided to go with an old favourite. Jack O'Lantern is one of the awesomest characters around. :3 So I gotta have a Jack dragon. Go wild with this idea. I've included some reference images below.
Gender: male
Name: Jack, probably. Or something similar to it.

Theme: December is special month for me, so i want a special dragon. :3 Glowies, of the colours grayed purple and slate blue. maybe with some kind of reminder of coming in from the cold and huddling with a loved one in front of the fireplace-- not nessicarily obviously on that hteme, but perhaps in apose, or with some odd lights that remind you of that or something, and that's totally optional. Also totally optional-- use one ofmy power animals (most any animal, so you can ask me on exchange tracker, but the big ones are as follows: Crow, Moth, Armadillo, Cat, Fox, Bat, or Porcupine. Can also be a combination of htose animals, such as back plates or back spines.) Yet again, optional: symbol of one of the following gods/goddesses- (Isis, Bastet, Osiris or Anubis.) And, depending on how you want it to be used in the little mindspace-continium thing, a vertical third eye in the center of the forehead. :3 Those last four are like.. totally optional, so you can ignore them completely or incorperate one or two.. like a salad bar, only not.

?
I have plans for this creature, IC- If it resonates with me a certain way, the thing will be a son/daughter of the Shaman of Mindspace. :3 otherwise, it will still be incredably significant, but in a different way. :3 whether it does or not is mostly hit or miss, so just do whatever suits you. ^^

Theme: Quest For Glory Fighter, Magic User, or Thief

Lately I've been having a lot of fun replaying an old game series called Quest For Glory, and for lack of any other inspiration or character need, I figured I might as well make an exchange request of it!

My request is that you pick one of the three given character types and make a creature to fit it. Quest For Glory is all about being a hero (well, with many exceptions made for the Thief) so the creature should be designed to excel at its chosen profession!

For color-scheme ideas, I'm including screenshots from the first four of the five games. (The fifth game doesn't have an overall "uniform" look for the characters.) Admittedly they can be rather garish, but I'd like the creature's colors to reflect the look of one of the games. Nostalgia and all that!

TY. I've updated meiyr's page appropriately and linked to the species info page. :}

Meep, I thought it said through the 8th!

Drat. Ah, well

Xenoqueen · Post by **Xenoqueen** » Fri Dec 08, 2006 9:26 pm

You know what, it did, and for some reason I thought today was the 9th. O_o Er. I blame it on going to bed at 3AM, noting it was the 8th, and thinking it would be the 9th when I woke up. D: I'm sorry!

If you want in, I can send you the person that I rolled for myself, and I'll draw for you?

Myrror · Post by **Myrror** » Fri Dec 08, 2006 10:02 pm

Well, if everyone's ok with that, I can dig up an old form (as I usually use the same one over ande over anyway).

I was holding off because I wanted to be sure I could do this, I think I'm feeling well enough to do one little critter ^.^;;

(adding form, just in case)

Heh, this isn't the first time I goofed on the Exchange. I've had to hand off "my" request before. XD I'll go forward it to you now.

Myrror · Post by **Myrror** » Sat Dec 09, 2006 12:09 am

*chuckles* Phe, you also forgot to put who the critter was going to be for.

But I figured it out.

Kayla! I got you!

Since you had done both heaven and reaper, dragon and feline yourself, I decided to do a canine hell Athiyken.

It's your species, and if you find anything wrong (red ink tattoos? Black wouldn't exactly show up well, I wouldn't think ^.^;;;), you could always pretend he's a canine whorling ^.^;;

Hope you like, anyway.

:O He's absolutely perfect! Just how I'd imagined them to look. And the tattoos are wonderful. :DDD Thanks so much, Myr! *hugs*

Thanks ^.^

I did want to put in a second pair of wings--but I couldn't figure out how to make it look decent. It was late at night, though ^.^;;

Shard

I wasn't sure what you had in mind; in fact, this downright sucks. ;-; tell me if you want me to redo, becuase i shall.

for some reason, my drawability died more than it had before. X.x it's a mindspace batty, between 2-3 times the usual size, who will be sentiant. he might also tend to wear ribbon bows and tie pine needle twigs to himself as an adultt oo.

;-; i'll redo if i have the time. Tell me if you want it redone especially, and i'll make the time.

He didn't have spines, his face is different, and I don't know if the night was dark enough for you, but that is a version of Jack, in spindliness, and out in the Pumpkin Patch! Which is covered in snow. Because like last Christmas, Santa is Nice.

MYR!

So rather than go with fancy physical attributes, I decided to go the way of fancy patterns. Drawing inspiration from one of the fanciest of birds, the peacock, with random swirlies thrown in for good measure, I give you...

I imagine it's male since, you know, peacock and all, but otherwise all related info is up to you.

Hope you approve!
