Well, for the most part it seemed like people liked the idea... 13-3 I think that's good enough for a go, so...
Here's the ground rules, nothing too complicated, just something to keep it fair for everyone involved. You basically make a custom for this, or use an existing custom you already have. The customs are sent to me, I review them for my site and then I swap them with other customs and then send them out to their new owners. I don't like to discourage people form doing anything custom related, but I understand how some people can spend hours on a custom, and others can spend less than an hour, and I know how people are, and would want something in return, so.. with that, there will be these set categories your customs will fall under... LBCs(If I get them)-Simple parts swap, little or no paint applied Simple Franken-paint-Parts swap and simple repainted parts Higher End Franken-paint-Parts swapped, and completely repainted parts(little to no original paint showing) Modified/sculpted/cast customs-Custom with modified, sculpted, cast or any other extreme modifications done to the figure. Customs swapped will only be swapped with others in their categories. This is just to keep it fair for those that spent hours and hours on a custom and want something equal in return. I'll ask for a couple volunteers that don't really care about this rule, if need be, so an unbalanced swap can be done. In order to sign up, you have to post here: 1. Your Hisstank name 2. A link to your customs. 3. If you want to volunteer( in case we have an uneven amount of people in a certain category) for an uneven swap. I'll then edit the list and the end of this post as I review the names and customs and contact people via PM they're in. There'll be a small $3.50 "fee" for this. The fee is only to cover shipping out the custom after I review them and swap them. I hope this is understood. I'm not doing it to make any money off of it. I'm sure some will cost more than $3.50, since I'm reviewing them for my site, I'll use my site's sponsor funds to cover the rest, but I can't cover $70+ on my own... After I hit 20 people on the list, I'll put a cap on it for this round. If it does well, we'll do another one later this year. Lastly, please remember that I will be reviewing these customs. I will take as much care as possible on them, I will not boil and pop them apart or anything like that, but If possible, I might pose them for pictures. Keep that in mind when choosing what you do and what you send. Also, I'm hoping this will help people step it up a little on what they do send in. If I was personally sending one of my customs to someone to take and photograph and pick apart, I would do my very best to send.. my very best... so I hope others would do the same. I think that pretty much covers it. I'll add to the list here: Sign-Up List 1.Joerhyno-Paid myself Somalian Shillings-DONE 2.yojoe300-Paid-RECEIVED 3.GI Guppy the third-En Route 4.daremo-Paid-RECEIVED 5.TANK_DRIVER785-Paid-RECEIVED 6.Prince of Fire & Thunder-Paid-RECEIVED 7.Outbackk-Paid 8.olocden[taken off due to personal request] 9.TTT-Paid-RECEIVED 10.wild weasel[taken off due to no contact] People have asked about a due date. I'll go with the end of May, that way as I get them in, I can review them and get everything ready(hopefully everyone doesn't wait till the last min)... So, You have till May 31st to get these in to me, if I get them all in earlier, then I'll of course end it earlier and let people know. Thank you, -Joe Last edited by Joerhyno; 05-31-2009 at 06:52 PM.. |

Cool idea. I'm limiting my spending right now or I'd jump in and do it myself. I'm bookmarking this thread to see where it goes though.
