Update:
It's been a while; I've been busy with other things but am ready to focus on this now in addition! I'll need confirmation and updates however on all the names currently listed, whether or not you can still help or I believe certain characters are no longer around? Anyway, still need a lot more names!
What:
I believe that over the years there have been a couple attempts at a sort of group picture of the inhabitants of the forest, but of course there are so many characters it's rather impossible to include everyone, especially with one artist, who may not have a lot of time on their hands. So I had this thought of one huge art/writing (I'll get to that in a minute) collaboration of the community to try to capture as many residents of the forest as possible into a sort of group picture.
It will probably work best as a sort of mural like
this, instead of trying to cram them all into one scene.
Who/How:
This collaboration is open to anyone who wants to contribute, or you can just add your character to the list if you aren't an artist.
Artists can draw their own characters or others, different people can work on different aspects like color, shading, backgrounds, and who does what is encouraged to be freely discussed. People who draw traditionally can ask for help making their picture transparent so it can be added in a layer.
I also would like for writers and poets to be able to be a part of this. Written work about the forest and it's various aspects; and those that dwell in it can be added to the picture in unique ways.
