Challenges!

I have discovered that what a grown up job means is: I get home, I stare at the wall or the TV for a few hours while my brain recharges, and then I go to bed. It turns out this is the perfect amount of time + total lack of motivation needed to draw a lot of pictures on my tablet. I have made, like, a tablet nest on my couch, surrounded by stacks of the photo reference books I bought in the Barnes and Noble discount section (Treehouses of the world! Castles! The Ultimate Guide to Reptiles!).

1. I finished all the ones you guys rec'd earlier (thanks!), so forgive me for being this out of the loop a second time -- Do you know of any art-friendly challenges going on in your fandom? e.g., Psych, Naruto, Burn Notice, SGA, Doctor Who, H5O, XMFC, ST:Reboot, Leverage, Highlander, SPN, Temeraire, Vorkosigan Saga (she says with foolish optimism), and some others.

2. Also, would anyone be interested in a reversebang-ish thing with me? You give me a fandom, characters, + a few favorite things, and I make you a picture prompt (like so or like so) that you could write for, say, yuletide-length? ish? (You know, longer than a comment fic but shorter than a [livejournal.com profile] miss_porcupine comment fic.) I'm just gauging if it's a crazy idea.

[livejournal.com profile] dc_dystopia is holding a reverse big bang. I have no idea how your style would work for 'dystopia', but I really want to see it!

[community profile] spn_bitesized apparently runs small challenges on a bi-weekly (ish) basis. IDK, I've just come over to DW this week.

[livejournal.com profile] 50states_spn lets you art for "local traditions and mythologies around the United States." (do thhhiiiis. pleasssse?)

[livejournal.com profile] deancasbigbang but art claiming isn't until August.

will continue to hunt because the world needs more [personal profile] pentapus art!

I would *love* to do a reverse bigbang thing for you. 1,000 words plus? NP. (Can you do any of the Captain America characters?)

We're doing [community profile] atlantisbigbang again this year and we can always use artists. :)

Hey, I would do that. Your story length requirements sound very reasonable. *g* (I'm still slogging away at the long and plotty story that is now 40,000+ words, sigh.) Naruto by preference, Iruka or Kakashi or Anko or whoever takes your fancy (right now I'm pondering what Orochimaru would be doing in a treehouse, though), though I could probably also cope with SGA, or something with that Methos guy in some crossover treehouse. Or crossover castle. Or crossover reptile. Wait, that would be Orochimaru, wouldn't it...

Ooh, I would love to do the reversebangish thing. :D

*flail* I wish I could find you a Vorkosigan art challenge, but while the comms I know of for Bujold fandom welcome art, their challenges seem fic-centric. We could do a reversebang thing for that?
