A little community activity, and a test for me because I like drawing weird shit. I haven't got a tablet (yet) so this'll be quite rough, but who knows, if this goes well enough I might buy one.
The games will proceed as follows:
I will create an object based on the suggestions of members. It might end up as anything - monster, alien, spaceship, or maybe a strange item of furniture - but
every change will have been suggested.
Note that
no other changes will be made. "Give it wings" is all very well, but those wings will just be triangles until someone says "Make them curvier" or "Give them feathers".
I will
only take the first suggestion between pictures, for the sake of avoiding arguments and preserving my sanity. The downside is you might have to repeat your request a few times.
If you already see a request since the last image,
save your time - don't request! Somehow people seem to find a way of having conversations about this junk,
that's fine. You can post as much as you want (within reason), but I'm only going to
work on one addition at a time.
I am honour-bound to fulfil
any request.
Please do not abuse this power. I use ImageShack to host these. If they get too gross, they'll get deleted - if Splat hasn't deleted them from Fan Corner first.
As the frequenters of this thread have learnt,
the length of time I pad something out for goes up exponentially as the degree of change increases. Someone *CoughSplatCough* asked me to draw half a city once, on 12th November 2011, and it took me until 25th of May 2012 to complete. For the record, I don't
mind drawing a city for you guys, I'd just rather do it
one piece at a time; it just seems a little unfair for one person to (inadvertently) rob a dozen people of their requests by asking for something massive. On the other hand,
I can often do a couple of small requests in a day, and be able to show you all the results. So, to conclude,
NEVER ask for a big change in one go, and
the smaller you make your requested change, the better.
The round will end, and will
only end (barring my death),
when I recieve two consecutive requests to end it. This, I decided, was balanced. A round can be ended quickly by two people who want it to end, while a sufficiently devoted opponent can butt in to keep it going with
any drawing-based request.
When a round ends, no further suggestions will be taken I will produce both a vertical panorama image to show the progression of the round, and a hand-drawn image of The Thing to illustrate it in more realistic terms. So
don't worry about providing either of these things yourself. I prefer to use the scanner at school, though, so if it's a school holiday the picture might take a while to get to you ;)
That concludes the rules.
Why am I doing this? Because whenever I do a community project based on
other people doing the work, it tends to fail miserably (though this almost did). Also because I hate doing homework and love procrastinating. Also some shizzle about testing my artistic ability. And also, BECAUSE I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH.
ROUND 1:
Here is your clay, people! Give it your sculptor's commands!
