Don't forget to enter out brand new "Character Exploration Prompt Challenge".
There will be a point prize! (donations always welcome on my userpage too lol)
Just as a reminder of the prompt:

Character Exploration Prompt no.1

"Beginnings"

Deadline - March 21st (extension on demand)

"Every character has a beginning. For most natural creatures, this may start with being born, for others, it is when they were created, resurrected, summoned, or built. Regardless of your character's form, be it organic, man-made, ethereal, or supernatural, they all began life in some way.

Your task, is to show us that first moment of their lives. Who are their parents? Was your character expected, anticipated, welcomed into the world with love and care - or were they an accident of nature or science, were they feared or dreaded? How did they appear, did they emerge from the earth in a natural disaster, did they fall from the sky, did they break free of a genetic mutation lab?
Show us the very seeds of their existence, and feel free to tell us more about the people who were there when your character first became a concious being. Were they made or born for a great purpose? Or did they start off life, as just another person in the great wide world? You can draw us a family portrait if you like, or introduce us to the people who created them, or summoned them, or found them.

This prompt is broad, and beginnings don't always start with birth. Perhaps your character was awakened? Or discovered, or given sentience through magic - in that case, show us the moment they "emerged" who was there - if anyone?
Have fun with this, and think of it as an exploration into the beginnings of your character, if you don't already know how it started."

As is tradition, our Trade-off trading list is now open! For anyone wishing to participate in this round, please let us know! One thing I would ask of anyone wishing to take part is that they DO actually draw their own work and are willing to try new things that they may not necessarily be confident in drawing.

The last thing I want is someone noting me and saying "I can't draw so-and-so's request because I don't draw animals/humans". Please be aware of what you are agreeing to before deciding to trade. Once you put yourself forward, you are expected to deliver, your partner deserves as much.

There is no deadline for trades to be completed, however if you DO wish to take part in the next trade-off then we ask that you complete your previous trade beforehand.

Please comment here if you would like to enter so I can write your name down
