One of the guys at work showed me this link where a guy uses a wiimote and a laserpointer to create a giant tablet pc. I was thinking it would make a great guestbook! You have to first watch the video.

Want to do some character study illustrations?
Hi peeps,
I'm interested in doing a series of 3-6 character studies. I thought for each character study, one person starts it off by doing the basic sketch plus any "inking" they want to do...then they hand it off to the 2nd person, who adds color and whatever else they want. That 2nd person would then turn around and do the original sketch + inking for the 2nd character study, "springboarding" off of the 1st character study. The end result should be a collection of character studies with an overall unifying "theme" of some kind (whether it be the colors used, or whatever, just...something), but with each of the collaborating pair being able to bring their own unique "take" to each facet of the process--whether it's the originating process of coming up w/the character and basic feel of the drawing, or the process of clarifying and interpreting the original drawing.
Let me share with you some of my inspiration for this idea (I'm not going to lie; I'm a fan of comic books/graphic novels; you'll see that in these links):

The above is inspiration only. We can go in crazier directions.
I'm also cool with doing all of the original drawings if someone feels like only adding the "extras"--which could be photo scans, texture, layers of images, watercolor, ANYTHING! You can go traditional, far-out, or anything inbetween. I'm open.
When is the next C0-lab show, btw?
