♦Welcome to the Artist Trading Card Club of TheOtaku!♦

Don't know what Artist Trading Cards, or ATCs, are? Then read below!
ATCs, or Artist Trading Cards, are tiny little cards, about 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches, that artists draw/paint/whateva and then trade with each other in person or via snailmail. They can be sold too, but are then called ACEOS, Artist Cards Editions and Originals.

This Club is a nice little place for any ATC-ers to find other artists to trade with!

Mini Notice!

Hey there everyone! I'm Sayura(or Hyunji, I really don't care which you call me by xD), and I just wanted to say being in this club is pretty amazing =P I wish I had more time to make more ATC cards for this club, but unfortunately, time isn't so nice to me all the time =/

Anyway, more importantly, I wanted you guys to take note that this club hasn't really been that active xDD Unknown-chan and I were talking about it and we were kind of struck with how little posting happens on here. I mean, it's supposed to be a club, a chance to meet new people, things like that!
So make sure you guys try and branch out a bit! Don't be afraid to message someone you don't know~ if you really like their art, then don't hesitate to ask! Or if you just want to make new friends, then definitely say something!

I think maybe it'd be a good idea that everybody in this club maybe try and make a post with maybe one of their ATCs and saying a little bit about themselves so we can all get to know each other a bit more =D I'd love to meet a lot of you, since after all, it is a club and we're a mini community in ourselves! ^^

Not to mention, Unknown-chan and I were thinking that trading might go better if maybe you messaged another person and requested something similar to an art trade(except with ATCs)~ so for instance, if you wanted to trade 2 ATCs each, I think it'd facilitate trading and relations a bit if each of you requested the other person to maybe draw 1 out of those two cards as something at your request. I did this with Unknown-chan where we each listed off several characters we loved and just picked one that we felt like drawing for the other person~

So don't forget guys to branch out a bit! I think we can really go somewhere with this club if we do ^^ So many of you guys have such great art, and I'd love to do trades with you if I can. Take care everyone, and I hope that this club will expand and become an even greater success! =)

EDIT: Unknown-chan came up with the idea that maybe to help members branch out a bit, we could maybe put names in a hat and do random pair-ups? What do you guys think?

Several ATCs for trade!

;3; And well not much else to say.
They're all just a tad smaller than the standard ATC size and will be sent out in their own card sleeves.
Each one is signed and dated as well as assigned a number of their set. 1 of 2 for the first two and 1 of 4 for the third. EDIT// Forgot to mention, the prints do not have the watermarks on them. :>
And yeah that's it. :C
