So, I don't know if this has been done in the past, but I was thinking, since we have groups on dA and FA, why not start a somewhat "secret santa" style art exchange? Here's how this would probably work. There would be a number of days for artists to sign up and post which of their Wyrms they want art of, whether on dA, FA, or here on the forums, so that we know how many people are interested in participating, and what their Wyrm looks like. Once sign-ups close, no more people can enter the exchange. Half of the account names/usernames of the people who enter are all randomly given a number from 1 to half of the total number of entries (for example, if there were twelve artists participating, numbers 1-6 would be randomly assigned to one half of those twelve artists), and the same with the other half. This would result in 2 artists having each number, so each pair could then be matched up as art exchange partners. A PM/Message/Note would then be sent each artist, giving them a link to a picture reference of their exchange partner's Wyrm. The participants then have a certain amount of time to create a piece of artwork of the assigned Wyrm. When finished, an image of the artwork created is posted in a topic here on the forums. At the end, the names could be revealed and everyone could find out who their partner was.

That sounds fun. I would totally join! C;

Cool! If you (or anyone else) have any added suggestions on how the Art Exchange could be run, or any other input, feel free to post your suggestions or comments.

Alright, well I just realized I never said I voted yes. xD So uh, I'm in for whenever you start to organize this.

I like the idea, but I don't think I'd have much of a chance to participate. I take /forever/ to finish art.
I still owe YearofDragon a drawing, which hasn't been scanned. *lazy*

Hehe. It's cool. I know how that is.

Cool. ^_^

I'll probably hold the first one in October, November, or December (possibly during all of those three months), but I won't expect anyone to finish during the November or December holidays themselves. I'll likely be working for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and most people will likely be busy with their families and such. *starts work at grocery store next month* I'll post a separate thread for signups though as soon as I figure out which month or months I'm going to do this.
