I had a dream last night where a friend called me out to the barn to show me something. It was a large box of vacuum packed fetish wear (all PVC and rubber stuff). It was all second hand, but still good quality. She asks me if I want it, and I reply that there's bound to be something I like in there. We part ways and I go upstairs to my bedroom, only to find it has been rammed floor to ceiling with other random fetish stuff! I put my hands on my head and exclaim, "What the hell am I going to do with all this?!" I start sorting through it, just to get it out of there (my bed and computer are completely engulfed). As I start stacking it in tidy piles in the spare room, I begin to think, "How am I going to hide all this from Mum and Dad?" I then concoct a plan to make a big curtain that will go across the room and hide the stacks of fetish stuff.
The dream ends there because the radiator started gurgling and woke me up.
Since the group has shown little to no interest in the Monthly Prompts, and there was absolutely no response to December's post, I have decided to drop the Monthly Theme/challange.
I would also like to remind and inform group members that this is a group for ORIGINAL characters. Anyone who tries to submit art of cannon caracters without an OC present in the image will have their submission denied. Same goes for pictures that have overtly (RL) religious or political themes.
I know the group has been pretty good on this lately, and this is mainly for the newbies, but lastly I wanted to remind everyone that this group is for ROBOTS of Cybertronian origin that usually transform into something. That means no human characters, or 'humanized' versions of characters, or organics generally.
To sum up the rules:-
**************************
Original characters first and foremost. Cannon characters are allowed if your OC is prominent in the picture.
Robotic characters only. If submitting a picture of your OC's altmode, make it clear in the picture that that's what it is.
Absolutely no references to real world religion or politics allowed. I'm sure there are places on DA where you can submit art and have discussions on these subjects, but this is NOT the place for it.
Finally, if anyone has any questions or suggestions on how to improve the group, please post something in the comments below. I usually get online during the evening/night time (UK time), so please be patient if I don't immediately respond.
Hi all!
First of all, I don't know about anyone else, but this new layout for DA has really made things tricky! I was nice and comfortable with how things were, and now I essentially have to re-learn how to use the website! So I apologize if submissions are left for a long time before being accepted.
Secondly, I'd like some feedback on the monthly prompts. Do you guys want us to keep posting them? We have had so few proper submissions for the monthly theme folder that I've been wondering whether it's worth continuing to post prompts every month that no-one responds to. Should I maybe introduce a challenge aspect to it? Like challenging you to use a particular medium or colour pallet? Tell me what you think.
Lastly this month's prompt. As it is December, you may choose to portray your character(s) in a Christmassy setting, OR you can do something inspired by the following randomly generated prompt:
#334
"Those are decorative."
"Just because they're pretty doesn't mean they're not knives."
