Finished drawing mine. Will print and send out soon.

That said, what's the policy on posting the art online? Can I post it (here or otherwise) or should I wait until it has been received?

Well holy poo poo I certainly did not expect something like this!



That's an amazing homer, Hungry Medusa! Thank you so much!

I put it in my display case along with my other collectible knicknack so that it's well protected from dust.

Ugh, sorry, was messing around with my mail server last night and I guess I broke things. Should be fixed now.

Only just now got to drawing this month's, but I'll get it printed and sent tomorrow.

Edit: printed and sent out now.

Printing a card on A4 in colour costs me 10.-, yeesh. At least I get 9 copies of every card that way, so people are gonna get copies of previous months' as well.

I still haven't gotten December's for what it's worth.

In other news, I got mine for January ready and will send it tomorrow.

I got this wonderfully colourful card from Hungry Medusa today!



Though it is the one for December, not January.

Did my card not arrive yet? I sent it out over a week ago, and it was European priority post.

Yay! Here's the full version of that most recent one. I hope it fits the monster theme well enough.

Ain't got anything or I would've posted about it.

But that'll mean I now pay twice the postage for each card and each card will take two deliveries instead of one. No thanks.

Well hey, I got a card today! It's Krispy Wafer's January card that finally arrived, and it's got some nice ritualistic dancing on it!



I really like how the lighter colours convey a sense of continuous movement.

Finished my card for March today, will send it off tomorrow morning. Hopefully it won't take forty days to cross the ocean this time.

I draw digitally, then turn it into a calendar card and lay it out on A4 using InDesign. I then print it using the laser colour printer at home with 200g/m2 paper and cut it up. I used to go to a print shop, but it's tedious and too expensive for what they offer.

As for the digital format, make sure to use at least 300dpi (standard home printer resolution) and convert to CMYK colour space -- preferably using the profile of your printer, though home printers often don't have a colour profile file available.

Today I did receive something! I got an envelope inside another envelope:



My first time receiving a letter with a sigil. Exciting! Inside that were a nice greeting card and a stunning trading card!



Here's a closer look at it:



Thank you so much! This is really, really nice.
