Collecting Pokemon Art Cards

Journal Entry: Fri Apr 25, 2008, 2:50 AM
Yup, I'm collecting Pokemon Art Cards. Here's the idea:

~ cards must be 2.5 x 3.5 inches in size
~ pokemon must be non-anthro and in artist's style
~ pokemon must be hand drawn or otherwise created by the artist (no stealing or tracing official art)
~ I prefer realistic pokemon
~ will trade actual cards via post
~ will trade 3-for-3 up to 5-for-5

I will create on demand - you can either have previously drawn lineart coloured in or suggest ones you would like to see me draw. I WILL accept prints of original pieces, provided it is the correct size.

Here's a bunch of pokemon I like (in no particular order):

Nidoran (m and f), Nidorino, Lopunny, sneasel, weevile, murkrow, shaymin, fearow, stunky, zigzagoon, chimchar, shinx (and its evos), buizel, masquerain, breloom, slakoth, sycther, delcatty, manectric, cacturne, flygon, zangoose, skarmory, turtwig, piplup, staravia, kingdra, girafarig, scizor, noctowl, kabutops, lapras, dewgong, kadabra, chikorita, qwilfish, teddiursa, smeargle, mudkip, combusken, poochyena, absol, purugly.

I am not especially interested in the eons anymore and I have enough vulpix and ninetails cards.

If you are interestsed or happen to have rpeviously drawn any of the above and would like to trade prints-for-originals, please comment here with a link to your gallery and any relevant pictures. I reserve the right to refuse trades, especially of print ones, if the art is not quite what I'm looking for.

I will draw any pokemon, but please understand that they may not be entirely what you are expecting. My style is somewhat atypical. Please check out my gallery before asking me! If you don't like my art, don't ask.

So, anyone keen?

I should also add - I will only do one card of each Pokemon - so if your first choice has already been created for someone else, then you will need to make another choice. I will make a list on my website as to what has been taken and drawn!

(If in bold it is available for trade. Note me if interested.

If I have asked/agreed/persuaded you to do a trade with me and your name is NOT listed above in either the Pokedex list or the "pending" list, can you please NOTE me. I haven't been taking very good notes (ie: any) and I've been leaving messages etc all over the place.

If you are on the above list, can you please respond here with your Poketeam? If you include more pokemon than we are intending to trade for, it gives me a bit more room for freedom.

PS: If you comment or fave my art, I WILL NOT thank you. No, what I will do instead is visit your DA site and leave at least ONE comment on one of your pieces. Tbh, I would rather people did this instead of receiving the constant stream of "comments on PARENT; Thanks for the fave!"

PSS: If your name is below this line, you will have to wait until I've worked through the above list before I move onto your cards.

hmmm, I'll see about whipping out something, most of those pokes are to my liking (can floatzel be included?) hmmm, not very sure how well I'll do with non-anthro, but it will be fun to send letters to you :3!

Definitely! I'm already doing one with Mistie. And evos of the above list are fine too, for the most part I'll be happy with anything - the list is mainly there cos my friend Rose wanted one so she had some new Pokemon to research and (hopefully) draw.

I'd love to get some of my cards in Mexico, isn't it?

So... would we send you the art if it's traditional?
I don't quite get it ^^;

I am your CONSCIENCE! BE HAPPY!!! :typerhappy:

Or Blazikenblaze on Neopets. =P

Yes you do - the idea is to make art trading cards and physically post them to each other. IF you decide to design them digitally, you would still need to print them off to send to me.

That make sense?

So...three for three means three cards per person trading?

If so, I'd like to see Articuno, Milotic, and Quagsire.

I can draw anything in your list. Give me the ones you consider the most difficult. ;)

My address is changing shortly but I can still work on these~ Hehehehe.

*pokepokepoke*

Triple poke. :) Can't beat that.
~lemurkat:iconlemurkat: Apr 24, 2008, 12:51:31 PM
That's exactly what 3-for-3 means.

Hrm... what would I like to see from you? Let me get out my Pokemon folder...

From you I would like to see:
Kabutops, Skarmory and Zangoose.

I have already planned out a quagsire card. And will be posting it shortly. If you like that one, let me know (it's a bit newtish) elsewise I shall start one more to the norm!

Milotic is real pretty! I"d not seen her before.

Thanks ^^

Okay! Can't wait to see the quagsire. I don't mind more newty, cause I like newts too.

Unfortunately I'm really busy this week, but! It'll be nice to have something small and fun to work on while I fly out for a family reunion thing next week. Is that okay? I find that I finish projects more quickly when I have deadlines, so can I trust you to hold me to end of the week after next week? :)
