Artist's Thread

This is a thread for all the artists of the Ultimate CB Collaborative Story. You guys can doodle and confer here, as well as post illustrations. I'll bring any news from the authors, editors, world builders, charrie creators, etc. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, please visit The Ultimate CB... thread on Inkwell.

  Are there any artist spots left?? I saw the thread on Inkwell and thought it looked really cool, but I'm kinda late.

Or i could just be a backup artist, if that works.

This is Embers in the Ashes. Could I have a description of the animals so I can start drawing?

Ember, I think Leeli said we could just start doodling animals and post them here then see what animal we like best. I was thinking of maybe little foxes that have a emblom or a small friendly dragon also with a certain emblom. I will post my pictures in a day or two.

@Dandelion-sure!

@Esquire and Embers-yes, pretty much. I was thinking the same, though let's try not to use the more well-known mythical creatures such as dragons or unicorns. I was thinking little foxes with a strange feature such as horns or wings, or rabbits with elongated tails... idk. Feel free to start doodling-see what you come up with! I'll do the same! Maybe we can have a combination of animals-emblem foxes, tail-hares, and who knows what else! XD

I've begun to doodle some ideas, but they look like cats with horns and long tails then rabbits. Sorry. :,/

Hi! I'm slotted as the cover designer, but is it okay if I help some with the illustrations?

Well, if so, then I was thinking for the species to be almost like deer. Maybe with petite hooves and big eyes, so they're cute, but also with like horns or something else that make it different and other-worldly. I don't know.. I'll try to draw them. (Beware; it takes me a really long time to actually produce a good piece of art)... :)

Sure, Caroline! Yeah! I love that idea! I drew one based off a Dik-Dik (Cutest thing ever) but with a feathery tail. I'll post it when it's colored. Maybe I'll add some horns, too.

Thank you! I think I might switch the rabbit wings and fox antlers though.
