Ok. I've had an idea. It may be nonsense. It may be brilliant. But I need help to test it!
The Concept:
A describer and a painter are paired up for the duration (maybe a week or 2 weeks).
A single starting image is divided into 4, 9 or 16 pieces. Or however many pairs had signed up.
All PMs would go through the host, as per usual MSPaint.
Each describer receives a piece of the overall image, along with it's position (top right, for example). The usual 10 word description is done.
The associated painter gets the position plus the description. Maybe dimensions? Might be too complicated, so let's say whether it's square or rectangular (important later). Paint as usual.
This image is then sent back to the describer. Another 10 words can now be used to help adjust to look more like the original. Possibly an option to adjust or start over? If adjusting, the painter will reuse their first image, if starting over, well they start over...
The new details are sent back to the painter. They either adjust their first image with the further description, or start over using both descriptions.
Repeat once more, so 3 descriptions/paintings in total.
The final paintings would be combined, with resizing etc done by the host so they fit together as a single image.
Reveal would be... Original image, then either each round from each pair or each pairs 3 rounds, then the final combined image!
So! I need 8 volunteers, 4 painters and 4 describers, to be my Guinea pigs help me test this out.
Who's in?!
