"Who wouldn't want to draw me? Shall I pose for you?
... What do you mean which side is my good side? I don't HAVE a bad side."
Atreyu's arrogance aside, after the wonderful response to the gift art task for the anniversary event, we decided to continue it YEAR ROUND. Who doesn't love getting art of their lovely RPWs? Creating gift art for others will also earn you Paint Gems, so it's a win-win!
There are several 'categories' which earn you different amounts of PG, depending on what you create. What you earn is NOT based on skill, so whether you are a beginner or advanced, you will earn the same amount of PG for your gift art. What counts here is the thought and effort you put in!
Sketches (no colors, only lines)
- Headshot - 5 PG
- Full Body - 10 PG
- Full Body with Background - 15 PG
Full Color
- Itemization (you make some sort of item, like the balloons from the anniversary event, mimicking the design of an RPW) - 5 PG
- Headshot - 10 PG
- Full Body - 20 PG
- Full Body with Background - 40 PG
In order to earn PG for your art, you must post it here as proof of what you've done. You may then link to your post here as proof of what you've earned and post it in the Shop thread to get your Paint Gems added to your bank.
Of course, you should make sure you have permission before you draw someone else's character, so this thread will also act as a sign-up thread. If you are okay with others making gift art for you, please fill out the short form below and PM it to me with the title RPW Gift Art Exchange, and you will be added to the list:

[b]RPW Collection Link:[/b] if you have a thread, website, or some other digital means of keeping all your RPWs in one place for east reference, please link it here. I absolutely DO NOT want an individual link to ALL of your RPWs, thank you xD If you do not have all your RPW in one place, you do not need to put anything here, obviously, it just makes it easier for gift artists if you have something like this.
[b]Favored RPW/s:[/b] If you have a few RPWs that you absolutely adore above the rest that you want art of the most, feel free to link them here. MAX OF FIVE PLEASE. Include their name and a link to their reference. You may change this at a later date if you wish.

FAQ
If you have any questions about what is and isn't acceptable and you can't find your answer here, please PM me!
Can I draw traditionally and scan/upload it?
This is absolutely acceptable. Go for it!
I have no way to draw/am not confident in my abilities at all. Can I order art as a gift?
Yes, you may. Buying personalized art for someone is still quite thoughtful if you're unable to make it yourself!
Can we use free bases/linearts we've found and color them in?
No. Bases and linearts made by other people are NOT allowed for this.
What about bases/linearts we've made ourselves?
Bases that you have made yourself are allowed for Itemizations and Headshots, but NOT Full Bodies.
Can we draw anthro/humanized art?
Yes! Absolutely ^.^
What qualifies as a 'background'?
It must have details of an actual scene: grass, trees, walls, a door/window, a street, buildings, sky, etc.
Just adding a background color or gradient will not count as a background.
