April’s THEME:
ROBOTS!
That’s right back by popular demand – Robots! If you participated last year and have scans of your robot cards email them into [email protected] so we can start compiling this one into a super fun artbook as well! There have been quite a few folks that have requested the robot theme return this year because they loved it last year or they missed it. It has definitely been the most highly requested so I hope you are as excited as I am!
On a special note: If you happen to make any of your Robot cards during the month of March be sure to post them to instagram and when you add your #ATCitupwithfriends tag don’t forget to tag them #marchofrobots and #marchofrobots2019 as well because each year in March there is a challenge hosted by @chocolatesoop where 4 people can win a wacom graphics tablet and clip studio paint software. Maybe someone from our fabulous community can win one!
REQUIREMENT: Your cards MUST feature a robot obviously! Remember cards CANNOT be fan art.
Do you need some inspiration? I’ve got you covered just see some ideas below and of course a fabulous pinterest board!
– Does your robot have a job? lets see them at work!
– Is your robot made up of unusual scrap parts?
– Perhaps it’s a long forgotten ancient robot among fallen ruins?
– Or rusting in a heap of garbage…
– Or maybe picking thru the junkyard for that special replacement part
– Diskotek dance robot!? ok robot bartender? telemarketer (aren’t they all! robots for real?)
– There are endless things you can do with this theme as we saw in the first Robots Trade last year. So have fun with it!
If ever in doubt just shoot me an email to ask a question. Send signups and any questions to [email protected]
