What is a Big Bang?

It's a collaborative event that takes place over several months, where authors write a fic, and artists create art based on those fics. Once sign-ups close, artists will review anonymous story profiles and submit a claim for their favourites. Artists are then paired with authors on a first-come, first-served basis. All art and writing is posted during the final week, creating the big bang of content for which the event is named.

What do artists need to know?

Artists sign up as either a visual artist or a musician.

All artists are welcome regardless of skill level.

Art must meet the guidelines found here in our info doc.

Deeper dive into event 🔻👇⬇️

Welcome to Ghostly Trades!

A Danny Phantom OC art/lit trade with a twist!

This is a collaborative event where fans of Danny Phantom with ocs catered to the show come together to celebrate creativity, connection, and a little bit of secrecy. Here's how it works:

Sign-ups are open via DM until May 31st (afterwards, I'm not accepting any new people signing up).

Once you join (after the 31st), you'll be paired with two people: One whose identity you’ll know in which you’ll create art or a story featuring their Danny Phantom OC. One who’s a mystery in which they’ll create something based on your OC, but you won’t know who they are until they post what they've came up with!

The people you'll be paired up will be at complete random, via a name picker wheel. Once you're paired up with somebody, you can swing into their ask box (anonymously) and ask whatever questions you have about their oc that you can use to make the peice.

There isn't really a deadline to finish peices, but I would say try to get them finished by the end of June.

Once you finish the piece and post it, make sure to tag the creator of the oc (that's when you reveal you were paired up with them) and tag this blog so I can swoop in and reblog your creation.

And now, a couple rules, just to keep things in check:

No racism

No sexism

No homophobia

No complaining about the person you're paired with

No being rude to others

Just be a good human being

Have fun (cheesy, sure, but still)

With that, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me, weather that be in the comments of this post, private message, or even a ask in my inbox, that's up to you!

With that said, hope you have fun and goodluck!

Pairing Date Decided

I will pair you guys up on June 6th

On June 1st a google form will open called the pairing form. This forms use is for requesting blogs you wish not to be paired with for whatever reason. This form will close the 5th.

And June 3rd is the last day to back out of the event.

Oh, and if you're into shipping, I suggest you look at this post;

Oh... and in case an odd number of people end up signing up...

And if you need to leave the event...

So I am severely late but I was committed to finishing the giant project I took on ambitiously. Due to work, and life things, it prolonged the end result but they came out pretty great! I had small things written down for each person but I can’t find the original paper I wrote these on.

Besides that, I am blessed to be in such a creative community as each of these characters have such unique stories only incredibly people could dream up. The designs, the love and care put into each of them is clearly seen and I am very proud to be among such amazing artists! Please forgive me if your character was butchered, it was my attempt to translate your design into my DP style! I know I missed some so if you participated in the Marching Parade and don’t see your character, let me know! I’d love to take a stab at your kiddo! (NOT LITERALLY).

(Also to the creators who OC i did draw, let me know if you would like your bust sent to you separately! I can happily crop and send you a full res image :> )

I am tagging all the creators here but NONE of these characters are mine!! Please find and follow them below!!

No, I don't have anyone.

When I started this comic (even before putting pen to paper), I looked up as much as I could regarding the subject. I always felt like there was something stiff and uncomfortable the way comic book characters in wheelchairs move, and I did not want Danny to be like that. So I tried to find information on the internet and stumbled across two YouTube channels, Wheels2walking and Wheelsnoheels, which I learned a lot from, and then I applied that to the comic.

I also set a rule that Danny wasn't allowed to just be sitting in his wheelchair like someone sitting on a chair, he had to move. Also he would rather sit on a couch, his bed, or just a chair than in the wheelchair but don't have the energy to transfer all the time in school so he popps a wheelie in class.

Oh and the design for the wheelchair has gone through a couple of changes, both in the comic and on the drawing board. The first one in Ch2-4 is customized but not to Danny, I'm thinking it's something they bought secondhand so he could get out of the awful hospital chair. It has the armrests, push handles, higher backrest, and breaks which he bangs his hands on when he isn't thinking of what how he is pushing himself. Second wheelchair see see him make at the beginning of Ch5. He is savaging for parts in the garage, frankenstining a chair for himself. If one looks closely at Ch5 pg 17 and compare it to Ch2 pg32 there are two bikes missing from either sides of the skis. The footplate is the kickbike and the fabric of the backdest has the Fenton logo in black on it.

Howdy.

Okay, so I know this event has ended, and that's fine and all... but I got a thing I worked on and that is others ocs.

I noticed that in the event, for the 7th day, a lot of people ended up not getting their ocs drawn by someone else. So I combed through the blog to figure out who didn't get their ocs drawn and, well I drew them.

I do know about half of the participants haven't made posts for the 7th day yet, and I would have waited until that got through so I'd know for sure, but I'm on Spring Break rn (well today's the last day) and I had the time to do this, so I went ahead and did it.

Hey, it could give inspirations to others on who to draw, or not. There were tons of awesome ocs in this event, I know it's hard to choose.

But, without futher ado (this is gonna be a long post, sorry) here are the ocs in no particular order 🙃

(And I have a little what I like about the oc bit underneath, I am tired when making this post so I am terribly sorry if these segments read odd).

Dionysia Nova - @corrupted-inkwell

I love the aspect of Dionysia's core being a water core, that is so freaking cool. I also love her ghost forms design, she's just a pretty awesome character in general.

Nyreena Dark - @misshvariety1307

Nyreena's sword is the coolest thing I have ever seen, the phoenix hilt is epic. Her backstory is very intriguing as well, being the daughter of the Ghost King and all.

Carnie - @zombfearer

Jesters are awesome, can never go wrong with them and I think Carnie makes a perfect Danny Phantom jester oc. I love their design, with the split colors and shapes. They seem like pretty fun ghost.

Vivian Masters - @hithisiszooz

Vlad having a sister is the best thing ever, it's clicks so well. I love Vivians design, and the backstory that came with her (Vlad and hers parents being ex hippies is the funniest thing to me).

Aviatrix Iris Minoso Flint - @videodromeda

Iris was fun to draw considering no actual pictures of her exist, just the description. I loved the life and personality put in her through her master post you made of her, and I really hope I caught her character well. (And if there is anything you'd like me to tweek, let me know I will be glad to do so).

Aubrey Webber - @saschagemruler

Aubrey is such a fun character, I love her personality and design so much. And the backstory she has with Vlad? Chefs kiss. And that is exactly why I drew her bursting into Vlads mansions doors.

Archie, the Master of Records and Memory - @forestfairyunicorn

Archie is a awesome character. Being the Master of Recorfs and Memory is a very interesting concept, and you know? It really does answer the question of what happens to ghosts memories and records when they die. And his bats Flipnote and Page are absolutely adorable.

Cassiopeia (Cassy) - @timelessdp

Cassy is so fun. I love the idea of her being the daughter of Danny and Valerie if they had gotten together. I love the detail of her having vitiligo and her powers being light based is amazing.

Ares Masters/Plasmius - @agitatedghost

The amount that Ares reminds me of my irl best friend is insane. Ares has a wonderful personality and awesome design. She seems like she'd be a awesome person to hang around.

Supervisor Fich - @theillustraitor

Here's the Gen-Z in me coming out but Supervisor Fich gives girl boss. Her being a GIW agent is so fricking cool and I absolutely love her design.

Cap'N Rattague - @invaderjjdraws

Rats, who can go wrong with rats? Rats are awesome, and I love how Cap'N Rattague is based around them, and pirates. So a added bonus. To me he seems chaotic, but in the best way.

Maverick Selphine - @tridentrans

Maverick is such a cool looking character. The firery hair is awesome and I love the aspect that he was a very dedicated paper boy. I am actually very curious about his backstory, he's a very interesting character.

Andy - @voided-peach

Andy is a really cool looking character, I love how his skin is translucent allowing one to see his bones. And the fact that he’s a young kid is tragic, he is developed very well.

Hannah Black/Haunter - @katharos-arts

Hannah seems pretty chill, and that is awesome. I always love the chill and calm characters. Her getting her powers at the Axiom labs due to ghostly insects is a very cool idea, something I would have never thought of but it makes perfect sense. Makes you wonder how those bugs worked in a sense.

Callie (Calcifer) - @ellascreams

Callie's powers are so cool. Being able to control candles is such a beautiful aspect, and I love the idea that she's just a ghost who owns a candle shop. That is so fitting, and I can imagine the shop is a pretty neat place to hang.

Lesli Adelura - @theleslistuff

Lesli is a pretty cool character. Her being 1/4 Wendigo and a sociopath is a awesome combination. She seems like such a badass and I'm here for it.

Blood Blossom Ghost - @papiliomame

Even tho she isn't technically a oc, just a character made from a doodle challenge, she is amazing. I thought the design of the Blood Blossom character was beautiful and just wanted to draw it. (And yes, I realize the mirror isn't mirroring properly, we just gonna ignore that 💀).

And so, that ends that. I hope I did all these ocs well, and I hope y'all enjoy them.

Now, I should probably go get some sleep because ya know, sleep is important.

Thank You so much 🥰
