Adoptables?
12 years ago
I've seen more artists doing this around here lately, where an artist tosses up a bunch of pre designed characters and people bid on it and it becomes theirs. I remember hearing about this initially when I knew someone doing it on Gaia, but I hadn't seen it on DA until recently. So this got me thinking...
Is this something people are interested in? I mean specifically from the point of view of my watchers and my work. Is there anything that you could think of that I could put out that might be of interest in this? Cuirizu? Linirym? Something else? It's an interesting concept and it would let me be able to toss out a ton of the design ideas without getting caught up on the various details of what to do with it and story and so on.
I'd like peoples thoughts on this, while I'm not saying I would definitely do this....having an accurate representation of people's interest could help me ponder it out a bit more.

I dont like adoptables myself. To me it kinda cheapens the work and skill involved in creating fine characters. But then again artist need money and adoptables are the hot thing now. You have some nice characters and I am sure you can make some money with them.

The only reason I consider it is because I often have ideas for a character look but blank on background details and personality.... or even what to do with them for that matter. This seems like it could possibly be a way to get the designs out there.

For sure. Your actually really good at making humans. One of these days I may need some help with characters on a project Im doing, when you have time. Not asking for request I would pay ya.

Naw nothing big. Just a personal novel im writing. A dark fantasy of sorts. I would just commission various character sheets and some landscapes. If you had time someday.

One I get some other stuff cleared out, it might be worth something looking in to. I'd have to know a little more about the project though of course so feel free to hook me up with some info via private message or something.

I personally think it'd really work well....some of my best characters and ideas got their start as adopts originally, and to be honest, it's refreshing to apply someone else's creativity to my own: it helps me look at things in a way I might never have initially come up with on my own!
