So I've been seeing these little "artist trading cards" blanks for sale at my art store and was thinking it would be cool if we did our own trading/collecting. If you are cool with getting mail from internet friends we can do it that way, or you can scan it and PM it to your trade partner...I'd leave the choices up to those involved in the trading.

The idea would be to pick a partner and discuss the details with them. You can do a mini art trade (like a commission, but instead of points or money you get art) with your own personalized requests, or draw one of your OC's and trade for one of theirs, or trade your favorite anime/manga/whatever character fan art, or whatever you agree on.

You can use this thread to seek out a partner for your trading. You best bet is to quote your intended partner (maybe shoot them a note, too) so they will be alerted to the message, just in case they don't check in daily here. Happy trading.

***please note that I plan later to do "themed game trading cards", but it will be hosted in its own thread due to rules/guidelines***

That's a good idea, it is a creative learning tool.

I want to start doing the online trading cards, but I want to get practice here first.

I got busy, so I haven't been around to check on this. The thread is infinitely open (I declare it immortal) so anyone can join/revive the thread whenever!

I'd like to set up an art trade with you if you are interested! One of my OC's for one of yours, ideally.
