Definitions
Simplistic- 1 subject (example: Pink Poodle or coffee cup )
Advanced- a difficult subject that needs research (example: Character Umbrella Academy or Kakapo)

Monroy28, then please just make it a castle. I don't feel good enough for Group 2 - I'm definitely not advanced! Also, you had put it down in Group 2 as an English Cottage, not a castle.
 
Ruthe can the figure drawing be whimsical cartoons, I never have drawn these I am in fear I can't get this right?

Monroy28 what happens if I cant get this subject, that may result in my first bad itrader rating?

I have tried this but can't get anything realistic, best I can do is this sketch of figures ( will be colored and details added ) this is a rough sketch.

My theme for group 8 is going to be Roosters. Player 2 : Ace hearts. Player 3 : Ace diamonds. Player 4 : Ace clubs. Player 5 : Ace spades.
 
I'm right there with you, Robin, where figure drawing is concerned! I will of course try my best, but I suspect what I end up with will be rather comical or whimsical! :wub: That's why I asked to be put back in my original choice of Group 1 and change my theme to simply "castle" instead of English Castle (or English Cottage, as Monroy put it) in Group 2. Whimsical castle works for me, just in case that's what you need to do, Robin! :twitcy:
 
I'm following and lurking and was thinking about joining group 1 if I felt I could draw the subjects. I know I can't draw figures. I'm lousy at just faces, let alone whole bodies. I'll be checking out the other groups though. PATs are my favorite.
 
I've never done one of these before.

To make sure I understand "What's in my profile" - I need to look at the profile of each person in my group and make an ATC for each person based on one of their listed interests, likes or themes, and then send all the cards to Monroy 28.

If I have that right then I'd I'd like to join Group 5.

For my Group 1 figure drawing theme, just give your best work. PAT's are meant to be fun. Here is some cool past work artists have sent me.
