Hi! I donated $50 dollars to P4A (and might donate a little more). Would you pretty please draw a puppy-sized elephant wearing a French-the-llama style beret, shirt and scarf? Thank you so much for doing such amazing work during this wonderful event

Project for Awesome 2016 is going on right now! This is a huge online charity fundraiser and livestream.  The livestream is going on right now and Animal Wonders Montana has their lovely little prehensile tail porcupine Kemosabe on the stream. Here is a watercolor painting I did of this guy, I contributed it to the art perk which is a fun perk that you can get in exchange for a $45 donation to the project right here!  By donating you will get a random art piece created by a nerdfighter somewhere around the world!

Hello! I was wondering if there was any way to view more selections of specifically your coloring book pages? You are awesome!

Hi there! I’m going to be keeping the coloring book pages for the book private so that is can be a surprise for those getting it- but you can expect both detailed and more simple pages. If you want to see some coloring book pages I’ve done in the past check out these http://zoosemiotics.tumblr.com/tagged/free-coloring-page and see the links in the description of them for more samples :) None of these ones will actually be in the book though, I created all new ones for it.

P4A is happening! I’m excited to say that I have collaborated with @zoosemiotics to create this awesome coloring & puzzle book, which you can get on its own or with the Digital Download Bundle all at projectforawesome.com/donate. Both of us are also taking art requests in exchange for donations, which you can learn about here and here.

DFTBA!

Hey all! @nerdfelter created amazing puzzles and I drew coloring book pages and some extras to color for this perk which I hope you will consider donating to :) Because it is a digital perk, 100% of your donation will go to charity!

Project for Awesome 2016 HAS BEGUN! That also means that the Nerdfighter Art Perk is live :D The livestream is going on right now and Emily of The Brain Scoop is on. I contributed art to the art perk, which is a fun perk that you can get in exchange for a $45 donation to the project right here!  By donating you will get a random art piece created by a nerdfighter somewhere around the world!

Here I have two perk pieces I did including a watercolor painting of The Brain Scoop’s soon raccoon and a little pin. The pins are a new perk I did this year, sculpted in clay and painted in acrylics.

Pet portrait commission in exchange for a donation to the 2016 Project for Awesome - Thank you @lullalilly for your donation!

I’m taking art requests this year in exchange for donations made to the campaign (donations toward an already existing perk don’t count, must be separate donation). I can draw pets, animals, nerdfighter stuff, OCs and more- please see this post for more info on how to donate and see other great artists who are participating (:

Its that time of year again... Project for Awesome is rapidly approaching! Project for Awesome is a wonderful, big online charity auction where youtubers and people of the internet come together to raise lots of money for good causes. 

In exchange for donating to the campaign (when it goes live) you can get many awesome perks. One of the perks I contribute to every year and love creating for is the Nerdfighter Art Perk. You can get original art from people around the world via this perk. In the next few days leading up to and on the days of P4A I’ll be uploading art I created for this perk. 

First up, puppy size elephant done in ink and watercolor!

Also- another art related thing going on this year for the event is some of us are doing art commissions in exchange for donations. You can pick what you want drawn- see this post for more info

This year for the Project for Awesome, a bunch of creative Tumblr people including myself are offering to do requests for art, writing, or songs in exchange for pledges to donate to the P4A. A few of us did this last year and it was a really popular idea! The people participating are listed below along with what types of requests they are taking.  

To submit a request, send them a message like “I’ll donate $10 to the P4A if you draw a puppy-sized elephant eating pizza” with any amount of money and whatever you’re requesting. If they post what you requested, then you donate (I’ll update the donation link when donations open). I’ll be tagging my request posts with #P4A Requests and I encourage the other posters to do the same.

Participating Tumblrs: 

Mostly visual art:

Lovely Nerdy Things

I’d take requests for fanart/drawings/quote art/pun art for any fandom or nerdfighteria! More sample art

the Complete Fiction

I’m willing to take line art  and flat color request for female characters from the waist up. I’m Also willing to take short stories(300+ words) and drabble (under 300 words) request.

@hipsterratic will make a song over literally anything you send him. Recorded with acoustic guitar. 

Meig, A Dinosaur A Day

Basically what I did last year and what I’ll do this year is that I’ll write articles about the animals of someone’s choosing. I keep ADAD to dinosaurs only (so descendants of the most recent common ancestor of Megalosaurus & Iguanodon, which includes birds); but for P4A I offer to do entries about any organism someone might choose - such as other extinct animals (pterosaurs, plesiosaurs, et cetera) or animals alive today which aren’t birds (like mammals, other reptiles, et cetera).

If you would like examples of the articles I write, here are some recent ones that I am quite proud of: link link link

And some of the ones I did for last year’s P4A on Non-Dinosaurs (as you can see my writing has improved over the year): link link link

Thanks, everyone! Please share the heck out of this post! The more attention we get, the more money we can raise. 

If you get a request fulfilled, please remember to donate! You can donate at projectforawesome.com when donations open.

P4A 2016 Requests for Pledges

Last year during the days leading up to the Project for Awesome, I took drawing requests in exchange for donation pledges. People sent me asks saying things like “I’ll give this much money to the P4A if you draw this thing” and then I drew the thing and posted it, and hopefully the person donated the money they agreed to. It was really fun, but the amount of publicity I got for doing it led to me being overwhelmed with requests, while other blogs started doing the same thing and probably didn’t get as many. With the amount of excitement generated by this whole idea, I realized that I think as a community, we have the potential to raise a lot of money this way. 

This year I want to make a post with a list of creative Tumblrs that would like to do requests for pledges, and then I want to get that post promoted as much as possible. 

So, if you have a Tumblr where you post any kind of art (including stories, music, etc.) and you want to be listed on this post, send the following information to me by December 3rd, and I’ll publish the post the next day. If you have an ask box, I will link to it in the post. 

Email to sylvia.odhner@gmail.com: 

  1. your tumblr url
  2. your name and/or the title of your blog
  3. a description of the kind of art you’re taking requests for (drawings, comics, fan fiction…). Include any conditions you have for requests (for example, if you’re only doing nerdfighter-themed art, or you’re only taking requests on certain days, or you don’t take anon requests) and anything else you want to include. Example: “I’ll be taking requests for Nerdfighter-themed drawings and short comics from now until Sunday.” 
  4. if you do visual art, send me a sample image to include in the post

Some additional notes: You don’t have to do all of the requests you get. The idea is that people only donate IF you post the thing they wanted. 

The official dates for the P4A are December 9-11. Usually the donation window extends a few days before and after the event. 

Please share!

Send me nerdfighter art suggestions!

Hello everyone, its that time of year again... Project for Awesome is fast approaching which means I need to get some art done for the nerdfighter art perk :) I usually always do some watercolor paintings, and then last year I added a craft too. 

SO I need your help, I will probably have to start recycling themes this year, but I’d love to make some new stuff too. Please send me suggestions on things I could draw (or potentially craft) that are nerdfighteria related. I’d especially love ideas from this past year (ie pumpkins and penguins ect) but am open to all ideas. 

see samples of stuff I’ve done in previous years here http://zoosemiotics.tumblr.com/tagged/project-for-awesome
