Panda Emoji-09 (We're sleeping) [V1] by Jerikuto Welcome one and welcome all to my art trade travels.

This is basically art trades (traditional by snail mail only) but with a twist. Basically, I am building a passport (fake) that shows the many places I have been to through art trades.

No... this does not mean that you have to be from that place in order to trade. Let me explain...

:bulletblack: Art Trade Details :bulletblack:

  1. Basically, I have a list of places or things, animals, stuff that I want to see/buy from around the world.
  2. When we do an art trade for this series, you have to draw one of the available items, animals, places, etc. that I have in the "Places To Go" section below.
  3. You can have me draw the same subject OR pick another place that you want to visit or animals/buildings/etc that you want to see... but it must be related to this whole "travel" deal. You can pick a place that I do not have listed as well as long as it is real (no fantasy).
  4. When you mail your trade to me PLEASE include a used stamp that you have gotten. You can just take mail you got previously from the country and state YOU live in and just cut around the stamp and include that with the art you send.
  5. This is MAINLY for ATCs (artist trading cards 2.5"x3.5") BUT I am open to other things such as postcards (4"x6") or even other sizes.
  6. You MUST discuss the trade details with me in the comments or note before making me something. I do not accept blind trades for this art trade series.
  7. I am going to mark the country as "visited" once I have all of the things in that country in art form.
  8. Yes, you are literally drawing the things that are listed there or making them if using other materials.
  9. I DO NOT want the country shape drawn... I'll do that on the passport... I want the other things like the places, cities and such. If confused just use Google please to get ideas.
  10. I'll accept old art as long as it fits my requirements. :)
When I get these cards and stamps, I'll make a custom stamp (paint a fake one) that has your dA icon (or logo) and your username. Along with it would be the month and year of the trade completed plus your country/state. I'll make these and then cut and glue them in a fake passport.
The goal is to fill my passport completely.
If you dig this idea then feel free to copy what I have here and use it too! :D
I'll be making a video about the passport along with the stamps plus posting them here as deviations too so you can look at those for inspiration.

Bullet; Black What is the difference between traditional and digital trades?
Traditional trades MUST be mailed in (put in an envelope, place a stamp on it, and drop off at the post office style). Digital trades are where you make a downloadable image available for your partner. Digital art that you print is ONLY allowed if agreed upon in advance - you must tell me you are going to do this or else I'll consider the trade to be incomplete on your half.
