Guess who wants to do some Valentine’s sketch auctions later this month? ME
But they will be a more finished than this and will be unfounded species. If bids get high enough, the winners can gain full species rights and the right to found their respective sketch.
How Im going to do it: Less than benchmark: I have species rights and the winner gets a PSD use Higher than benchmark: Winner gets species rights and I get a single PSD use (its flipped)
I havent figured a benchmark yet, but I’ll try to not set it TOO high. Then again ‘high’ is a situational thing. $20 is high for some, fair/low for others. *big ol shrug* ALSO! These will NOT be based! Im so bad at basing, I dont even want to talk about it :’D
This cutie is only one of the few I wanna do! All of them will be themed after love, affection, obsession, and other things similar to that. And not limited to the good forms of it either.
Oh, date of the auction?
Im PLANNING on it being a 24-hour auction on February 15, 2017.
Why not the 14th? Cus its Valentines Day and some people might be busy. NOT ME! *cries a single tear*
This sounds like it’s gonna be super cute!
So if you were to win rights are you planning on funding all of the species? Like, if the user bids and wins a psd use how will all of these sketches get finished/founded if you are potentially left with 3+ sketches? D:

I havent really thought about that? Whoops. To be honest, I was aiming for these to be crumb species. Im sure I can get them based (if I dont make too many sketches), or even try doing it myself if I have to. By default, winners would be getting a Silver Crumb with their PSD.
I miiiiight be able to buy 1 SCC to give to one of the highest bidder, but RBC only gives ~94 GP per list so just 1.
If I keep the species rights, I will found them quite slowly (if I ever decide to found them). As stated above, RBC gives only enough GP for one PREMIUM DISCOUNTED SCC. Even if I retain species rights and even if their goal is to be crumb pets, the winners are 100% able to use a SCC to make their pet. I’d hate to limit such cuties to just crumbs!
The winner could also, alternatively, create the pet with crumbs and use a SCC on it at a later date.
I can usually afford basing (hopefully), but winners will most likely get Silver crumbs by default and the highest bidder overall gets a SCC (if I can afford it).
Im still new to auctions and sales, so Im still trying to work out what does and doesnt work, as well as what makes such things more tempting- *cough* enjoyable for others.
