Description:

This swap is the first in a series of ATC swaps on the Sci-Fi Cult hit series, Firefly. In this swap we will be doing an ATC of Captain Malcom Reynolds. Future subjects will be: Zoe, Wash, Inara, Jayne, Kaylee, Dr Simon, River, and Shepherd. We will also be doing a "trader's choice" after the main characters where you can decide to make a subcharacter, the ship itself, the logo, or even another ATC of your favorite character. Also, at the end, if a couple or more show interest, we will have makeup swaps for latecomers' where each trader can request a missed character.

ATCs must adhere to standard rule. 2 1/2" X 3 1/2". Must be made of hard, cardboard stock. You may even cover a standard card. Just nothing flimsy. Also, this card must be HANDMADE. No cutting out images from magazines or computer print outs, then just gluing and embellishing them. This time you must earnestly give your artistic efforts. You may use a varity of media: Ink, pencil, colored pencil, paints, pastels..just to name some. Make a handmade card you would be pleased to receive. If you're still uncertain as to the definition of handmade, please contact me first.

Requirements: You must have at least a 4.85. No recent "1's," No disturbing amounts of 3's. I know sometimes an incident happens, but contact me first before joining otherwise I will ban you. Also, you must RATE, as manners do matter. If I know you to be a non-rater, you will be excluded from this swap. Final discretion is mine. Remember, I do always ANGEL my swaps. I know how it feels to be flaked on, and I like my participants to know that no-matter-what their contract within this trade will be honored. Just rate your flaker appropriately when the time has elapsed ( so others hosting can have that knowledge) & contact me. I will HAPPILY angel for you! I want everyone to walk away a happy trader with their promised end of the bargain.

Questions, concerns, feel free to comment here, but contacting me directly will get a much faster reply, as I do not check the comments section daily. This is an International Swap, but the cost is minimal since you only send one card to one partner.

I think you mean HAND DRAWN, not handmade.

I knew I should have had coffee first, but technically, someone could handsew or embroider the image (I have traded with a couple people on MyFlick'r who's specialty is sewn cards (I really like those). I also once, in a trade here, got ceramic ATCs - which are still a couple of my favorite I ever received, so Hand drawn & hand painted definitely apply, but if you're an artist with skills like those I just mentioned, THAT also is just fine. :-)

I'd love to join but I can't draw or paint worth crap...at least not faces (clothing yes, faces no.) Could possibly sew or embroider, just not sure if I'd have the time (b/c I'd like to participate in all of the series.) Will watch for now and see if I can find any inspiration.

These swaps are awesome! I lack the artistic talent to join, but yay for more Firefly swaps. :)

I would so love to join. But If I would draw or do anything equally artistic all you could identify would be a big brown blob... so unfortunately I'll have to pass...
