Hey I was wondering if there would be any interest in capranis/marblings bribe thread? Mostly for $ but I will also take pet bribes. I was thinking $10 for caprani semi customs and $12 for marblings semi/full customs. Maybe capranis breedings, like three pups guaranteed for $22?
Let me know if that sounds appealing to you.

I'd defenitely be interested in USD Capranis! And I love the Living Marbles too, but I'd like some event activity from them before spending USD.

Aralie

I would definitely be interested in Capranis for usd <3

Silvanon

I can't spend real money, but I could offer Quinsta bonus tickets, traditional Painted Unicorns, or custom wobbles for either... I'd probably go for Capranis first.

I'd love USD capranis, but can't really see myself spending $10 on something that's a semi? It really depends on how many aspects of the pet I'm able to choose, though. Your work is marvelous and definitely worth the USD spent, though ^^

hiyoko

I would be interested. But maybe list traits we can get cause i would love a custom of my michiko as a kacia. ;D

Rosedawn

I'd be good with it. I'd also love to see more events because I think they would make a glorious agency.

Bun I know one thing Mis was going for was never doing FULL customs...t make it a very breeding heavy adopt where you had to breed to reach your goal.

Bunraku

No I realize that, I just like to have a small aspect of control when paying USD, like perhaps being allowed to pick 3 mutations I like best or something to possibly have one of them appear? I just want to always make sure I have something I will absolutely LOVE when I pay USD. ^^; (Not that I wont like what I get, because Misplaced is amazing, but you know what I mean? I think ^^; )

Id be interested in a bribe thread but feel the pricing may be a little on the high side, but maybe thats just me and not having much usd to play with? Id also like to see a bit more in the way of events I guess before I put much in in the way of real money.

I will say however that your work is fantastic and I do love it, especially Capranis, so even if I couldnt spend usd, id be looking at trading other pets :)

I'd definitely be interested in capranis for bribes, and for a unique posed critter, I don't think the proposed usd price is too out there, for a semi custom



Elenaria

i don't know if i'd be allowed to do USD, but, like, Silv, i would love to offer other adoptables or things in trades, specifically for Capranis.  ^^ <3

If I had the usd to spend on them, I'd be more then happy to toss some your way for marblings.  I don;t think I'd pay usd for Caprani, even if I had it.  I like them, but I LOVE marblings.  Just a matter of preference is all. 

But too, I'd want to see more (and regular) activity for the marblings, before I spent usd on them.  Again, if I had the usd to spend on adopts, which sadly I don't right now.

If I have anything you'd be interested in, then I would of course be interested in non usd bribing for either marblings or caprani.

I wouldn't spend USD on Capranis personally but a lot of people would. I have no idea what a Marbling is.

SGA

SPO these are Marblings http://www.secundi.net/forum.php?topic=8769.msg165313#msg165313

Although that list isn't fully up to date I think, since I don't see myself on there and know I own some XD

A good idea misplaced may be doing something similar to quin give us a list of random premades before you even draw them and let people bribe. I know more premade sales would be appreciated too

Misplaced

Yeah full customs are a no go for Capranis because it would kill their purpose. Semi customs are basically gender/breed/three colors and maybe one vague marking/pattern. There will be slots for mutation semis but something would sacrificed for that. But understand if you don't want to spend money or something that isn't a guarantee you'll love.
I'll have bribe spots for other pets too, I want everyone to have chance.
I understand what you're saying about the marblings not being very active. I haven't had the inspiration to make a bunch of premades and I'm still not sure what I wanna do for breeding.
As for Capranis, I think they are pretty active already unless I'm reading posts wrong? They take awhile to make so threads can get pretty slow. I'm doing another giveaway with them soon though like I mentioned somewhere else.

Rosedawn- I was just trying to post this when you made your post! That actually sounds pretty intriguing. What do you all think?

Oh and thanks everyone for your input! I'm going to make a thread soonish, whenever I figure it all out.

Ooh, I think Rose's idea is great!  A list of random, as-yet-uncolored/drawn 'premades' would be wonderful.  That is definitely something I could get behind, and can see myself spending even more on by getting more, than I would with a full custom, even if they were ever offered.  While I love customs and even semi customs, sometimes it's hard to think of and decide what I want. 

With Rose's idea, you could even switch things up a little bit.  Like list some Caprani by breed, but the buyer can choose colors and/or gender, and some by set colors, but the buyer can choose what breed they want, etc.  I think something like that could also be a lot of fun, and would an interesting new twist.

Rosedawn

Almost like semi custom premades that's am awesome twist Dawn!

This should also save you energy misplaced.  Since all your work is unique I don't think anyone wants to see your time wasted.

I like the idea of choosing by description - I have to admit that I can't resists the ones with mutations.

I think, since the aspect of having unique-lined pets is really appealing, people will be interested regardless!

I would personally much prefer not to choose by description, because for me pose is an important part of how well I like that particulair Capranis. I would be more interested in description Capranis if they included mutations, or if there was some other feature that gave them extra appeal over regular already-drawn premades (I have a fun suggestion for this! I listed it at the bottom).

But in general I still prefer ones where you sorta see what you get. Mostly because descriptions, predrawn, semi or premade, each one is going to be handdrawn and therefor worth more than your average custom on templated lineart and as others have brought up before, I want to know I really like what I'll get when spending $10 or more on a single pet. Not that there are any Capranis I hate to be honest XDD *tries to steal them all* :P

I had some ideas as well, and along with stuff already mentioned, this would be my order of preference:
1. Lineart semi custom - You put up blank linearts like you do in your color guessing game, we buy them and can pick x-amount of colors, you color with those colors

2. Semi customs - We pick x-amount of colors, perhaps one word personality to inspire pose and possibly +x-amount of $$ to be able to pick a mutation?

3. Premades already drawn - Guaranteed to like what you buy, yay xD

4. Showname customs - We pick a showname, you color a Capranis based off it. I'd love it if this type of custom has the option of picking between natural/fantasy/no preference for those who collect only one or the other.

5. Descriptions of not-yet-drawn premades - A fun feature I would love to see for these, as they aren't drawn yet, would be that the buyer can change one thing before they are drawn. like gender, a color or the breed. but you couldn't add something new, so if the one you buy has a mutation you could change it, but you can't add a mutation to one that doesn't already have one in its description.

Winged

The pose is a big part of choosing a capranis for me too, so I'd really like of you did blank lines then we could choose colours like a semi. I'd also like premades, regular semi customs (possibly with the option of paying extra to get a mutation) and song customs.

hiyoko

I agree with YLO, I do like to see the poses. But if not, then I'd like to choose a mutation or colors. But I love Capranis, they are all so cute. Especially Dendi and Kacia breeds.<3

Misplaced

Those are all interesting ideas, I will definitely think about them! I didn't know pose was such a big consideration, so I'll probably do something regarding that.
