SIGN-UPS ARE NOW OFFICIALLY CLOSED!
Thanks to everyone who signed-up! If you didn't make it this year, be sure to look for it next year! PQ's will be sent out within the next few days.

This was originally in the General Discussion, but I've decided to move it over here. Hopefully it'll still be seen by enough people.

Anyway, here's my original post:

Yes, yes I know it's really early, but before you all start attacking me, just listen a second, will you?

I think we should do a DrunkDuck-wide Secret Santa. You know, like swapping gifts, yet people don't know who they're getting a gift from. Well, that's entirely plausible on an artistic front! People will draw others pictures and it'll all be secret-secret and then everyone will get presents!

All people will have to do is post in this thread with who they are, and a (relatively simple) art request, and I will make a list. (If your request or “present” has something to do with your comic, please provide a link. THAT MEANS PUT THE URL IN YOUR POST. IF YOU ONLY SAY “THE LINK IS IN THE SIG” THAN I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BROKEN LINKS TO YOUR COMICS. THANK YOU). When the time nears (let's say… two weeks before Christmas or so) I will place everyone's name in a hat and randomly pick who will be “getting” er…drawing… a present for who. I (or Dynamic, who is helping me) can then PQ everyone with who the person they will have to draw a present for!

For Example:

I'm Mazoo and I would like a present of a talking Christmas Tree!

The reason I want to start this so early is that it will give a large amount of people a chance to sign up, which will make it a huge community-wide thing!


I would also like a few people to be on the “Deadbeat Watch Committee” as I'm calling it, so that in case anyone bails, everyone will eventually get their present. Basically it means that there will be a few artists who are willing to draw extra pictures in case anyone forgets/bails/just doesn't do their part of the exchange. If you would like to be on the Committee, say so in your post and I will put a bold DWC by your name in the list.

If you are a Deadbeat you will not be able to participate next year! Further consequence is being debated.

NOTE: Those with "none requested" by their name still get pictures. It's just that no specific picture was designated.

Ah cool… sign me up! Put “none requested” next to my name for now… *I can change my request later, right?*
Put me on the DWC as well. :)

-Edit!-
For my present… take a white sheet of 8.5 X 11 and leaving as little white space as possible draw whatever comes to mind. It can be characters from a comic / sketches / doodles / whatever. Preferably in pencil.
Or if you want something more structured draw what you wished yesterday was like. Anything from a doodle to a one paged comic.
Your choice. :)

I'm KomradeDave and I'd like Alan Scott (the OG Green Lantern) kicking a ninja in the groin on the moon

I'll join, and I'd like uhhh… I guess just fanart for Deuces Wild.

Put me on the DWC also.

I will request… nothing as I have no comic right now. However I will sign up to be a DWC. And I ask nothing in return.

Yeah, I'll go in for it.

I'm Aussie_kid and I'd like a fan comic or a drawing of one of my characters please. Can be for any comic

i'd quite like to do this too.

Hrm. what to ask for. would quite like a piccy of my two vamp hunters, Lachesis and Luthor (not in my comic yet but i have pics in my gallery):http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38896652
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/39751384/

I'd like in.

I go by the original and mysterious moniker of Gregory. As for a present request? Surprise me.

It's been a while :) I think I'll participate. When's the deadline to sign up? I'd like to see all of the entry comics first before I make my final decision.
So all we do is pick a comic and draw a fanart for it?

Edit: oh, and my comic is in my sig :)

Ooo, I would love to participate. I'd like fanart for my Emma comic!

Oops, forgot to put the link. Sorry!

Sign me up, partner! I would like a picture of zombies!! If you would like to add one of my comic characters in there, possibly getting their brains eaten…I wouldn't mind that at all. So… a zombie fanart?

There is no deadline for present requests at the moment. I think I'll stop taking requests when I pick the names out of the hat.

Um, I think you are a bit confused, Knuckles. This isn't a contest. It's just a fun community thing where you can request a present and someone will draw it for you. The thing is, you don't know who's drawing the picture for you! You in turn will have to draw someone else their request, but they won't know it's you drawing it.

What you need to do is just request anything. Absolutely anything you want; it doesn't have to be related to your comic at all! I will notify everyone who it is they have to draw for a few weeks before Christmas.

Sounds like fun! I'll sign up :)
What is there to request?

Im in ^_^

and as almost everyone else, I'd like to request fanart from either Narou or Oni No Noroi (or both together in one!)

Sounds like fun.

I am Rick Xeros and I would like to request a picture of Keji and Gazimon from my comic in some Christmasy fashion, my comic's in my sig but here's a link anywayDigimon Legend ^^

Fun and interesting!! I want in!

Okay, Tantz Aerine would like Fanart. Comic is at the signature. Thankees!!

Oh,I'm game for this.

My name is Hero and I would like pictures of one or more of my characters in action, fighting or perhaps playing music.

Knuckles
Sounds like fun! I'll sign up :)
What is there to request?

What do you want? Your main character riding a Harley Davidson Electroglide down the mean streets of Reno handing out christmas presents?

Can I change my request… from nothing to a small selection of festive forum avatars.
To whoever gets that feel free to go wild but remember you have a maximum area of 100x100 pixels.

Hi, I'm Shippo_no_Neko and I'd like fanart for my comic!

www.drunkduck.com/Doodles_in_Time (plug!)

Great idea.
I'm in. Seeing as how I can't think of anything cool at the moment I'll just jump on the fanart request wagon.
My comic: http://www.drunkduck.com/Transformers_X

Hi! You know who I am. And you know where my comic is.

I'll refrain from asking for fan art, since I'll be asking for guest comics two months after Christmas for TEO's big 2-Year And Also 100-Page PartyBration. So… I don't want to seem too self-obsessed.

Instead… I want you to draw a short one-page comic about an earthworm that wakes up one morning to find that it can fly (and the consequences that occur as a result of this). It doesn't have to be colored or fancy or complex, just a short little sketch-type deal. Oh, and you have to draw it by hand. I think that would be just wonderful. Good luck!

I suppose I'll come in too…
I'd like fanart for my comic Kenji Nin:
http://www.drunkduck.com/Kenji_Nin/

This sounds like win :D I wish to partake as well.

Um, for my request, let's see… let's make it easy on myself and go with most of the repliers in saying “fanart”. Comic links are in the signature, but for the sake of linking something, they're also here and here. Fair warning, BTRN is over 180 pages long, and will likely add ten pages onto that length by the time everyone gets an assignment ._.

Oh yeah, and I'm Charil Zweig >.>

I like these things. fan art for my comic will do

http://www.drunkduck.com/The_House_of_Other_Worlds

I'm Toadman, and I'm one of the few not asking for fanart: I want to see Albert Einstien and Bob Sagget dressed as the Blues Brothers. Not too hard, right?

Dude! Alsn here wants to join your par-tay and get down with the presents!
Comic is here: http://www.drunkduck.com/Fated_Feather/
Present wanted is: Art history-thieving pirates with a Christmas twist. Ho ho ho.
Oh, and world peace.

Sounds like fun! I'll sign up :)
What is there to request?

What do you want? Your main character riding a Harley Davidson Electroglide down the mean streets of Reno handing out christmas presents?

Well, whoever gets to do fanart for me, I will let them decide which character(s) they want to draw and how they want to draw them. The sky's the limit! It doesn't matter to me, and the main thing is that they have fun. That is the whole point of this, after all.

So you're requesting fanart, then? You don't have to request fanart; it's just that a lot of people are. The request is more for what you want them to draw. If, like you said, it doesn't really matter to you, than I can just stick “fanart” or “none requested” as your present.
