Quarter Machine Trades

Mon Nov 9, 2009, 5:59 PM
:icondumpysaurus: is calling for quarter machine trades. COME JOIN US, AND IF YOU REMAIN UNCONVINCED MAYBE YOU SHOULD KEEP READING MAYBE YES.

How do you do a quarter machine trade? You trade handmade art in quarter machine capsules! Here are some steps:

1. Participants post a wishlist and/or set of hints, guidelines and interests that will help others decide what to make for them. Can be as specific or as open to interpretation as you like.

2. Contact somebody else who has posted a wishlist and ask if they would like to trade.

3. Go out and buy something from a quarter machine. Take the original toy out of the capsule and make something else to go in there, using your tradee's wishlist as a guide.

4. In keeping with the spirit of getting surprise loot from an actual quarter machine, it is recommended that you do not make specific requests. However, this is completely up to you. It's your trade!

5. Once your prizes are made, put them in their capsules and mail them to each other.

Guidelines:

DON'T BE LAZY. Put as much effort into your half as you would like the other person to put into theirs. Materials needn't be expensive, but they should be durable and your work should look nice. Treat your prize as an art piece.

Make sure that you are both working with the same size capsule (if this is important to you).

Be creative! Consider the quarter machine capsule as a form of presentation, not just a container.

Be sure to sign your work, and/or the capsule that you send it in.
*These should clearly be MODS. I.E, don't just paint a plastic kangaroo a new color--sand off its head and sculpt a new one, attach wings from a different toy, glue spines on its back and then paint the entire thing in stripes. Put your mark on it.

Truth is like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold. From the moment we enter, crying, to the moment we leave, dying, it will just cover your face as you wail and cry and scream. :iconmewtwo:
