Plans for Minna's Birthday!

(Serious, I can draw lines, polar coordinate systems, Klein bottles and even conclusions, but left biology and art teachers alike scarred in my wake.)

  Sounds like something Randall Munroe would say.  He does alright.
(But using simple shapes in a Word document is a good way to do it.  Ellipses make good head shapes.)

[Nimphy]

Dear God, what did he do to merit that!? ???

Lars drew a cute domovoi. Fenris is a stickman. Anything will do, JoB.

BATTLE STATIONS EVERYONE!! O___O

A card sounds nice
I think the Musical Theatre crew were contemplating the idea of completing/polishing one of their musical numbers in time for the Big Day, but they're all pretty busy folk, and I don't know if they went ahead with that idea. :/
(Hehe ^ that made me think of every Minion singing Happy Birthday at once, which would sound like a ginormous multilingual giant X'D so maybe not the best idea if we don't want to give Minna nightmares.....)

Hmm well that was the plan but I think it'll have to wait till next year or some other special occasion. It would be nice to all sing Happy Birthday though. If one person starts off and everyone else listens to their recording while singing it'd work. Once we get a lot of recordings I can mash them all together. I we'll have to decide on one language though...

Draw yourself and send it to Lars

Any particular type of portrait he'd like? Just a head? Head and shoulders? Rose's Titanic portra---

This is me

GLORIOUS. Like...Grug blow drying his hair

How much of ourselves do we draw? (That sounds weird- I don't mean it in a weird waaaay)

yes yes yes!
edit: if we decide on finnish, here's the text, and a sung version
edit the 2nd: around here we use to sing it in every language the people present know of in sequence (often 2-3, up to ~5), but in this community it might take a lot of time... and also not sound as nice
edit the 3rd: swedish version is very nice but a tad more complicated IMHO


also, if the drawing may be just a sketch, then I might do it! (even though I must do a month's worth of work until thursday night. such bad timing and/or time management ). When should the deadline be (I mean, would midnight GMT on thursday be too late? it probably is)

[OrigamiOwl]

This.......doesn't answer the question..... X'P

[Lars_B]

This is where I am right now... keeping it simple so that it might be done:



Suggestions are welcome!

cool!
hopefully you'll get enough to fill the whole space *º*

So, Finnish then?
I need to sleep if I'm going to be functioning tomorrow but here's what to do if anyone wants to record themselves:
Whoever records themselves first should put a link in this thread. (Preferably using Vocaroo)
Everyone else should use headphones to listen to the first person while singing (to get the right speed). You can PM recordings to me. The words are:
Paljon onnea vaan
Paljon onnea vaan
Paljon onnea Minna
Paljon onnea vaan

What should I do with the finished version?

If all goes well you could superpose all the voices and it would sound nice.

*currently sketching myself instead of either working or sleeping I'm realizing that my front view is much more pleasant than my profile

[Varjohaltia]

Here's me, if I can still fit in :-) Also, hi! Snuck over from the Disqus side just for this.

[Sigrid Marie]

Wait ok so I just draw myself and post it here/send it to Lars_B? When is the deadline?

[Lars_B]

Wow Varjo!

Sigrid Marie... the night before the 9th, so before midnight on Thursday
