MM&L: Cyclops ATC (Greek Myths #1)

Oh, would you look at the time! It looks like it's... Greek mythology-o'clock! I hope you can see your watch clearly without depth perception, because this month we are depicting a cyclops! That's right, it's the one-eyed giant of times long past. Call him a cyclops, call him one of many cyclopes, call him a Κύκλωψ, just don't call him late for dinner! He's probably also wearing a watch.

You can read about this mythological creature here, here, and probably in some books you found kinda boring in high school -- or really interesting in college. The cyclops you make can be any style, can be monstrous or humanoid, modern or ancient. You can even make a lady cyclops if you like! Just make sure they have the distinctive single eye and will be recognizable to the average person.

Once we get our 'clopes out, I'm happy to host more Greek mythology swaps if people show interest! Let me know who you'd like to see. Until then...

Rules

• 1 ATC for 1 partner, extras not necessary but not actively discouraged

• standard ATC rules: 2.5" x 3.5", sturdy backing, send in a protective sleeve. Please include the swap name, your username, and the date on the back. I think it's also fun to sign them/receive them signed, but this is not required. If you do not sign, please write your first name and last initial as well.

• make sure the cyclops is hand-made by you in some way. Any medium is acceptable, and the background can include collage elements, be totally hand-drawn, etc. Please take your time and make something you'd like to receive!

• portrait or landscape orientation are both acceptable

• 4 weeks to create and send, though because this is not profile-based, you may start early and ship it out once you have your partner!

• please rate a 5 if the card you receive meets the requirements. Give a heart if you love it.

• if there is any chance your envelope exceeds one ounce or will get classed as a small first class package, please make sure you add sufficient postage. Similarly, please make sure you pay the non-machinable surcharge if your envelope is uneven or rigid (you won't be rated on this, but the best chance the card will arrive safely is worth it!)

• If you will be late for any reason, please message both me and your partner as soon as you can. MM&L always angels for flaked swaps -- we've only had one flake, and we don't speak of the Dark Times. If you have an emergency, take care of it and we'll work it out after.

Please message me directly with any questions!
