List of Fairytales

Here is a massive list of Fairy Tales just in case you guys are stumped:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fairy_tales

Just in case you guys are curious here's an example I've been providing for inquirers.
Say Sleeping Beauty is mine I could make Denmark "Beauty" and have Norway as the Prince and the remaining Nordics as the fairies. Just something to play with and get you guys thinking.
Disney versions are ok too!

January 14 is the due date for you guys to tell me:
Fairy Tale you're using
Characters/Pairings in your picture
If you are doing a second picture

I want to make sure we have most of the Nordics in the pictures and not repeated Fairy Tales. As well as no overage of one pairing over the other.

I will be reminding you guys sparodically throughout these months to remember about this project.

*BTW!*
Do you guys have an recommendations for the title? Also for the Cover should it look like an old fashioned Fairy Tale book or a picture of all of them? Let me know!

Any questions don't be afraid to ask!

Nordic Fairytale Anthology

Hi guys!

This is going to be the blog that I will be using to keep you guys updated with all information on the project! I'm so happy and excited that you guys will be working on this with me! Not only is it going to be for fun but it's going to a great cause!

So some information on the project:
♫ It is Nordic-centric (Sealand can be included!) with main pairings consisting of DenNor and SuFin
♫ Every art piece should be themed from a fairytale. Whether it's a well-known one or one from your own home country it's all good.
♫ It should be a colored illustration.
♫ The rating of the book is nothing over PG-13. No Sex. Sorry guys some other time ;D
♫ You are able to do 2 pictures!
♫ At the end of everyone's illustrations I will have pages dedicated to credit all artists. All artists will provide the name they wish to be known as, their website/DA, their countries flags, the fairytale that inspired them, and as well comments that they wish to leave.

*Currently working on getting two Guests of Honors!*
One is a writer and the other is an artist.

As far as artists goes, I'm still working on getting as many artists as I can. I plan to have at least 30+ We shall have to see.

The book will be either A4 or US Letter Size
ALL ART will be due by the end of MARCH. Once we get closer to the date I will have a definite date. So the book should be released MID/END of APRIL.

Remember that all the money that we earn goes to the
MAKE-A-WISH FOUNDATION

Let's help make some child's wish come true!
