Sounds like fun!!!

ooo. good one.

Just faces, or face and body?

just faces

Ooh... I got one already! It was one of those things that I thank the heavens we have smart phones to to on site google searches for. Now to just re-paint it on myself, lol

You have to get a new odd request from me. Pm me for your odd request my lady.

Can we make more than one submission?

Thanks

Amy

it says in the rules that you get your "odd request" by PMing Suzy Sparkles and a maximum of 2 submissions per person... do you guys read the rules? sorry but it's there...

Thank you

LOL! Reminds me of the day I got asked to do a possum!

This is an awesome idea!!

Did have one guy ask for a beer stine over his face, he was heading to Octoberfeast by the river and his lady got a head flower band to match the braid on her dress. This is while I was painting 'animal faces' for the RSPCA. O well they get what they asked for when they donate to the charity!! Only wish I had taken photos!!
Can't wait to see what Suzy's list of crazy faces is going to look like.

I'm in!

BUT wouldn't it be interesting if we could ban a google search? I know you really can't but I'm still in the dark ages with no smart phone (I WILL be able to afford one this year...I WILL ...) so I'm forced to fulfill the odd request on the fly at the moment.

Ooh but I can write off the phone once I start my business in earnest...

Are you allowed to paint on a mannequin? I couldn't see the in the rules...

Last week I got asked by a little boy to do a skunk... "one that doesn't stink, please" he said! Then, naturally, the very next boy in line asked for the same thing.

Yes, you are

I'm sure it's not the oddest - but I got asked to paint a whole baseball field on Saturday... I was like, "OK, they call it a baseball diamond, right?" So... I gave him a big green face with bases and a ball... oy.

Ok so to enter two submissions do I need to have two odd requests? Or do I make two different designs with the same weird request?

you can do either or.... If you want to do 2 dif things with one request that is fine. Or you can PM me for a new one

Can we ask Suzy a question to "clarify"? or is that not allowed?

LOL! Odd requests... I want to know the thinking process that went into Suzy's list

Um considering I asked to get one.....me too

I would rather not get questioned simply because I have had about 30 people ask for them so far and if I had to reply back to everyone or change things, clarify a lot... it would end up being a real headache for me. I had a list of 20 random things but now am just doing whatever pops in my head the moment I read the messages. Didn't think it would be so popular!!

I am glad everyone is joining in... Remember, it is odd requests. Do your best to represent it!! If you guys weren't like... what the heck is that then the request isn't odd enough!!! (I am also trying to get a VERY wide variety of things going for the fun of it...)

I just love mine! Almost finished on my practise head, will make it on my daughter when I'm totally satisfied!
