LineArt Tag-A-Long

Journal Entry: Sat Aug 22, 2009, 5:39 AM


Let's play!

Welcome to the lineart Tag-A-Long!
This game is, as it sounds, a tag-a-long. It moves from one person to the next, and is meant for pure fun! There is no limit to your artistic ability other than you should be able to create a piece of proper lineart* and color it.
It works like this - an artist creates a piece of lineart, and then TAGS someone else to color it. The person who colors it, in turn, creates a NEW piece of lineart, and tags someone ELSE to color it. And so it goes on.



How to Play

:bulletblue: Get tagged. Keep an eye on this journal to see who is currently tagged!
:bulletblue: Download the lineart and color.
:bulletblue: Create a new piece of lineart.
:bulletblue: Choose someone to tag.
:bulletblue: Submit both Colored Lineart and your own new Lineart to your gallery, or e-mail them to either *Losmios or =bardicsidhe or submit to an image-storage service, like photobucket if you want to be secrative! (send anote if you wnat to e-mail us directly to gain our adresses)
:bulletblue: Send a note to the club with links to both images, together with information on who tagged you and drew the lineart, as well as who you tag to color the new Lineart.
:bulletblue: Don't reveal who you tag in your gallery - let it be a surprise for the one who is tagged!



Rules

These rules may be changed as a result of discussion and problems we face along the way!

:bulletblue: You can join at any time - just send a note to the club or *Losmios or =bardicsidhe
:bulletblue: The only people you can tag in this game are the people in the Tag-A-Long Artists Bank.
:bulletblue: Don't tag someone who's already been tagged if there are people on the list who has yet to recieve a tag.
:bulletblue: Try not to tag the same people over and over - a score will be kept after each persons name to see how many times they have been tagged.
:bulletblue: The subject of lineart has to be Firebringer or Vale related. It does not however have to be a unicorn, or a unicorn alone.
:bulletblue: You may not ALTER the lines in any way, only color over them.
:bulletblue: The lineart should be fairly simple, but hinting a simple background is allowed, and more than one character is allowed. Just Keep in mind that once your lineart is done, it is up to the tag to interpret!
:bulletblue: You can put as much effort as you like into the lineart! Even creating a full artwork, eliminating the lines.
:bulletblue: Always credit the creator of the lines!
:bulletblue: Be clear on how you want your lineart used - if you allow general use, don't release it until AFTER your tag has completed coloring it!



F A Q

:bulletblue: What is "proper lineart"?
A piece of lineart is basicly a drawing witch consist only of lines. There is no coloring and no shading whatsoever.
Your lineart should consist of a solid colored background The classic piece of lineart consist of a white background and black lines.
The lineart should be in high resolution, and preferbly in .png format, but .jpg is also fine.

:bulletblue: Does it all have to be digital?
No, but it would be helpful.

:bulletblue: I signed up and was tagged, but something came up and I can't do it - what do I do?
Contact the person who tagged you and ask them to tag someone else. Also contact *Losmios or =bardicsidhe to let them now you want to be put of the list for now. You can always be put back on when you are up to it!

:bulletblue: The person I tagged can't do it - what do I do?
Choose someone else to tag and let *Losmios and =bardicsidhe know!

:bulletblue: Just what exactly can I do with the lineart I was tagged to color?
You can be very rudementairy, or very involved. It's really your choice - put SOME effort into it, but you don't have to create a masterpiece! You can do solid colors, cell shading, vector, painting, etc.
The only thing you are NOT allowed to do is alter the lines themselves, only paint over them!

What is the Unicorns of the Vale? Is it a club? Well, that's a dumb question. Uh, what's the club about?
:giggle:

Hi there! Unicorns of the Vale is a club devoted to fanworks created for The Firebringer Trilogy by Meredith Ann Pierce and The Vale, a fansite and RPG based around the book series. They're awesome books, and if you like unicorns, I highly recommend looking them up! The trilogy was out of print for many years, but was returned to circulation a few years ago. However, the number of book stores that carry them is beginning to dwindle again. You can still find them on Amazon and probably a number of other online booksellers.

The books tell the story of a young unicorn prince's quest to win back the lands of his people, lost four centuries before. There's a heck of a lot more to it than that, and there's a ton of fascinating supporting characters.
:iconshimmering-elf-rawr:
Sounds interesting! Thanks! :iconthankyouplz:

*le sigh* It's good to see that the Vale is still very alive and well-loved. I feel like I can't keep up with the new generation of members, let alone the long-standing masters xD

Hold fast to dreams

Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow."

Aww, I don't think we're that hard to keep up with. :yum:
:iconindigo-ocean:
Awe, how is the vale doing these days? I keep meaning to sculpt the entire cast of the books, but it keeps not happening! Perhaps after I graduate!

Got Sculpture?

:iconunicorns-of-the-vale:
Hey there, Indigo! We're hangin' in there. Thanks for dropping by, and sorry for the late reply here!

A full sculpture set of the cast would be awesome beyond words.
