Description:

A much more detailed description is available here, in the forums, but I'll give a brief run-down of this section. Please do read the forum post for clarification though.

  • You will take one sheet of printer paper (or other unlined white paper of similar size and thickness) and fold it into thirds (so that it'll fit into a letter-sized envelope)
  • You draw any sort of head on the top third of that paper, having a general neck-type-area touch the fold, then you continue all the main lines that are touching that fold down about 1/4 to 1/2 an inch onto the middle section. Sign your name (and username?) somewhere unobtrusive on your section of the drawing.
  • Cut or fold a piece of paper so that it completely covers the portion of the drawing you did, then tape the edges onto the back of the drawing.
  • Put it in an envelope and mail it to your partner for this swap

IMPORTANT

  • You MUST join all three of the Exquisite Corpse swaps in order to participate, or the numbers/partnering system will be thrown off.
  • You may have the same partner more than once through the three swaps, but that's okay, it's just part of the fun of chance.
  • Signup deadline is the 2nd. You have one week to complete and send out the head portion (only one for the first part, because you don't have to wait for it to arrive in the mail, as you're starting it).
  • Shouldn't need to say this because we're all Complicated Swappers, but please follow all the directions, and if you have a question, ask!

hey, I just thought of this, maybe everyone should sign the portions they drew somewhere, so we all know who contributed to what. Did I mention I'm totally looking forward to this?

Woo! I think we did something like this in grade school. I love projects like this!

I remember having a book like this as a kid. It was divided into three sections and you could make different people/creatures by flipping different sections of the pages. This should be a blast; thanks for the cool idea and for hosting!
