Adoptables Maybe?
6 years ago
So I been thinking in trying some things like YCHs and adoptables. I'm pretty new to either of those, but I see many artist offering them, so I wanted to give them a try.
What do you think? Is that something you all may be interested in? Because I do have some fun ideas I'll like to try. :)

You never know the outcome if you do not try and do one or two
My concern is bidding situations. I've seen people put no autobuy outs on stuff and I see bids for stuff over 800$ just for a single adopting character and beyond which does make it seem a bit daunting to try getting in there to win a design. Same of YCHs
Same time - I've seen sometimes someone plays an Autobuy on a YCH or Adopt, and within minutes the AB is slammed which makes my head swim cause damn I'd like to try bidding for it(but this also means there are people willing to toss this sort of money out there for fantastic artwork which is amazing in of itself).
Just my thoughts on it, I'm just happy to see more stuff coming out ^_^
Also would love the possibility to see you sell slots where people can have a commission done with their OC meeting their favourite Las Lindas character
SFW or NSFW
A one time offer of either just to see how it goes over.
Limit what you offer so you don't add too much to your work load and well.
If it goes over well. HUZZAH something new.
If it proves too much for you on top of your normal, well you limited it and you can always visit the idea again later.
Just before you do those YCH things.. set some hard limits on what you are doing with them.
How much input someone has, edits, etc. So everyone knows what's going on and you can weed out some of the more annoying things that may come up if you don't set the guidelines/rules for them ahead of time.
I would recommend maybe try the YCH first. Those are a lot of fun. I would recommend try either a single char pinup and possibly one with a Las Lindas character. See how those go.
When they're made anew to be adoptables, because they are not "my" character. And coming up with a story background that is elaborate enough to justify the expenditure for visual art is usually more demanding than finding an artist to actually implement the resulting character design.
When it is an established character one adopts to prevent their abandonment, one literally should have a long term plan on what to do with the character which does not violate the character , its background and concept.
But I see how well adoptables seem to sell, so I am aware I have an outlier as a standpoint here.
Accordingly I think that you should really try to sell some adoptables, because there's bang for the buck in it.
