Manga Art Exchange (MAX) is this site that opened in late December 2001 as a go-between for artists to draw each others' characters. As a charter member of MAX, here's a display of what I've given and gotten out of it. Rounds run every half month, and sign up is open to anyone. Visit their site for details. June 2004 B Outgoing To: Kaede View From Heaven The setting of Chasing Sunsets. 
The story Chasing Sunsets is about an innkeeper's daughter who seeks to leave the dead-end life of the town for a better tomorrow on the horizon. Materials: Colored Pencil Incoming From: Sonia Earthbound Laka from Magic to the Masses 
Sonia: "I had a little trouble with the shading, so it isn't exactly how it was drawn in my sketchbook. Outfit is a little different to the original, but I had fun trying to achieve the draped look. Hope you like, A. Twu =D" June 2004 A Outgoing To: Eliza Lonely Moon Clockwise from top: Mint, Willow, Juniper, Ivy, Basil, Acacia, Rose, Ginger. From Searching for Sunset.
