Hi there! I am determined to comment here to introduce myself even if I don't have any cute doodlies on hand. (Although please see my icon, which is hand-drawn)

My art time is almost all taken up with a big tarot deck project right now, so I may be mostly lurking since it sounds like this comm is going to be focused on fan art? But I am very much looking forward to seeing what fannish things people make! :)

My favoritest fandom thing is Bucky Barnes (with or without Steve), and current shows I am watching include The Librarians, Doctor Who, and Orphan Black. I also just finished reading the last book in the Fitz and the Fool trilogy by Robin Hobb, and I may be tempted to do some watercolor art of those two after I finish my current WIP.

Nice to meet you all! :D

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by to introduce yourself. Yay, Orphan Black! I haven't seen any of the new season - I'm saving it up to watch a couple all in one go, as I can never stop at just one episode. :b

Very cool that you're working on a Tarot set right now. The comm is meant for Fan-Artists, but that doesn't limit you, a Fan-Artist, to sharing *only* Fan-Art here.

I'll be posting a FAQ this week outlining the details of the comm, as well as our first drawing activity. :)

Yay BUCKY! I remember reading that Robin Hobb series a while ago and it was excellent. I'm also a huge Tarot fan and am often planning decks. I did one in The Losers fandom for a Big Bang. Is there a theme to the deck you're working on?

[korafox]

Haha, that's a fun and complicated question. :)

I usually describe my project as a Tarot deck because it's a useful point of reference, but the library of cards in it is not the same as a standard deck (though there are a couple overlaps with the Rider-Waite Tarot). A friend and I developed it as part of a tabletop RPG game, and I have been slooooowly illustrating it. These are the ones I have completed so far: http://korafox.deviantart.com/gallery/37712543/Griorgair-Noema
