I have. I'll have to PM you the info though...

I'm currently working on getting photos of previous attempts up. I'm also going to try to make a "practice" custom, if my materials get here in time. Let's just say that's I'm very much a beginner.

Fairly familiar. I'm an anime fan in general, and have quite a few internet sources as well as some books and other tangible materials.

Sailor Pluto, Sailor Cosmos, Sailor Jupiter, Luna and Artemis (especially human form), Queen Serenity (mother), Sailor Saturn, Endymion, Sailor Moon (Princess and all forms), Guardian Cosmos

My user name on Ebay is lindencrazed. I have plenty of feedback there.

- Have you ever participated in a swap of any kind before? If so, which ones?
I have parcipated in a MLPTP Christmas swap (2007, I was Gingerbread's Secret Santa) a card swap, and a custom swap years ago (probably 2004).

- Where can photos of your work(s) be seen? Can we have some links to those images, please?
Um... this is the best I can do. It's small and from years and years ago (pre-2004). My first ever custom, too >.< I have since done more than just painting http://pf.xanga.com/fa/ad/faad09ad3e...d593340430.jpg

*edit* I guess I should also say that I've gotten into sewing. Here's a skirt that I recently made:
http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...razed/rei3.jpg

So I'll probably be doing about 50/50 sewing and sculpting. Sewing for the skirt and the collar and sculpting for the bodice/shoes.

[SailorLibra]

Thanks gang. I'll be reviewing the newest apps here shortly.

[SailorLibra]

If signups remain to be this quiet, I may end up wrapping up the sign ups quicker than originally anticipated. So if you know of anyone else who may be interested, send them this way so that they will have an opportunity to sign up.

Once everyone starts shipping out, towards the end of the swap, then partners will be revealed to the entire group. But for now, it will remain a secret. v

[Willow]

On one hand, I hope we do get more sign ups.
On the other hand, I am so impatient and want to get started!

same here. I cant wait to start! but it would be nice to get a HUGE group of people.

[Deep Purple Pirate]

Looks like there's nearly as many people as there were in V1.

[SailorLibra]

I know and it's great. Don't worry DPP, please no hurt feelings. Perhaps if you continue to improve like you've been doing, we'll be able to make an exception to the rule in the upcoming rounds. So don't fret because you missed this round, there will be more to come!

With practice, many of us can improve. Those with natural talent, I'm jealous hehe.

As for my anxious members, if you guys want, why not look over the character list and get started on one now. That way you will be finished with one and may be able to do a 2nd during this round. It's a thought. I don't have a backup ready this round and I hope I won't need to have one. But I need to try to get started on it too.

We'll be wrapping the sign ups shortly and be getting started soon.

Original interest thread: Sailor Moon Custom Swap, Round 2!! Gathering Interest.....Sign ups soon

[Phoenix Down]

I wish I had any sort of natural artistic talent... I have to work super hard to get anything... but I have a good idea what I am making this time around so it shouldn't be too hard! (maybe I will get done in time for a round 2!)
