Intro: I am active in three groups currently on DeviantArt that focus on ATC (artist trading cards) trades. Although only one focuses on cards of ARPG creatures and closed species, the other two tend to have artists who like doing OC art as well. All of them were created with black liner marker, white gel pen, and watercolor paints. I also used Hobby Ideas shimmer paint for accents on some of the cards.

Estate Addition: I got an OC through a personal trade on ATCsForAll and she has 3 completed art already plus 1 lineart that I get the honor of coloring in. She loves strawberries and her name is now Maybelline (yes she is a cow). I was thinking about having a herd of cows roaming the Estate but wanted to have certain events included as well with the cows involved. I figured the best way to do this would be to have an anthro cow (I think that's how you word that). It'll make things easy as she can talk. I'll have a few more animal based OCs with the ability to talk but I'll restrict them.
Resources Status: currently I have mock permits created but I am thinking about changing them. I really like the dark blue and gold colored logo I made so perhaps the other resources can be similar? I feel that the permits could look better if painted by hand as I am starting to think the entire Estate resources and design would look better if it had a watercolor look to it. Estate Opening: I think this needs to be touched up on... I have no real opening date as I keep getting too many things added to my To Do List. I keep getting trades or commission related things that need to get by certain dates - thus preventing me from putting real efforts into this. I'll start devoting certain days to the Estate for making art shortly (perhaps after Autumn). Other than that - I am still debating on getting a few artists on board to help out. If I got some to help out then the group would be open quickly but honestly I like the idea of having the group all be designed by the same artist so that nothing looks different. OC Trade: This means that yes I am open to doing OC trades that are done on ATCs ONLY! What does that mean? You would draw a character on an ATC (make 2 or more cards of the same OC) and I would do the same. We would then trade them like regular art trades. The new owner can decide the name and other details but the artist gets to decide the actual design and colors. It seems like I'll be doing plenty of Pokemon related art as I am getting really attracted to the tournaments and leagues they have. So bear with me as I work on Pokemon art for those that don't like Pokemon fan art.
SummerVoyage: Yes!!! An OCT for HARPG! I am absolutely participating in this as these are rare to find! The first prompt is due by the end of May, so this means this month is super busy as everything is due mid-May or at the end of May! >.< Open to all breeds (including new horses)... hmmm, perhaps I should give Chetan a go at this seeing as he loves attention. I am struggling to decide between using Chetan or Spirit... Kukuri-arpg: Design was submitted but two errors found that are being corrected by the artist who did the design. HARPG-ShowCircuit: it seems the group is going to be focusing on effort based shows now so this is a good sign to get officially registered. I had watched the group for a while but never joined (now I shall). I am not too big on entering RNG based shows as it is all about luck. I would rather get judged based on my efforts than let luck decide. SVI Schooling Show: an ongoing show that refreshes at the start of every month. This might be something to look into as it is a mixed schooling show for all breeds. I'll be submitting entries sometime in Autumn to this show to get practice. Thilyarem: Chroon has been officially approved by the group! That means he can now get added to this website...which means that I need to make a Thil page. Pokemon-ARPG: My Cyndaquil (female) and Pancham (male) have been approved! It looks like I'll need to get the references done quickly as this month there is a Safari Zone event going on. For those that have not heard of it: May Capture Event focuses on certain Pokemon from the Safari Zone who are getting out of hand and are up for trainers to try and catch. Right now there is a Gyrados that is stuck forever in the Mega evolution form who I really want to add to my team (I love dragons). In order to participate we have to get the references for our team done first so I'll need to get these done before the month ends. The Pokemon are actually first come first serve so I need to work on them ASAP!!! The beta version of the League has also been launched this month... which comes with the perk of challenging the League without needing all 8 badges... this looks tempting but it'll be the last item on my plate. Hisui-Region: Plenty of things on here with this group... I joined but need to get my character and 1 Pokemon application card approved in order to participate. I am not sure where I put this item on my To Do List. HARPG: I ran into a really cool event (now cancelled due to lack of interest) focused on mustangs. You basically train these wild mustangs and get a chance at adopting them if you succeed. Interesting OCT in my opinion! The mustangs that were created for the event are now available for adoption so I am looking at two of them (possibly 3) as I found some really good looking ones to add to Sandhu Estate. I am thinking about having them available for leasing once they get used to their new home. Seems like I have a soft spot for mustangs as I keep finding my self wanting to get more of them. Wyngro: Cute dragon thingies that look adorable to draw in their baby form! The designs are closed for May, but I'll be making the traditional references for submission in advance to get them approved. I can just see mine causing chaos around the Estate to keep things interesting! PokemonTownship: Joining is closed at this time so cannot do anything there. I'll work on my application in advance though to get it prepared. Eagle Creek: the Spring Hunt is going on right now with a tad mix added in. You get to draw a Tokota in the image so this is going to be interesting as it'll be my first hunting image. DyurRegistry: Import 136 & 137 now belong to me and have been approved. I got lucky here as I got the mother with the new baby in one adoption. I submitted the references for both and now got the "okay" confirming they are mine to keep. The mother (Allouette) and the colt (Chip) are now going to have their very own page here! Looking into: I am looking at two groups that are OCT based but am still undecided. ea-lec (Exercitus Artifex: League of Extraordinary Characters) TerRor-cArnival (terror carnival - based on jobs and rides found at carnivals) My schedule is going to decide when and if I join these. |
