After a bit of planning, coordinating and talking with the right people. I am proud to bring you an assisted Art Auction. I will be trying to coordinate with artists from other sites to bring you an art auction. Mostly held on certain events. Such as Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.. The goal of these auctions is to raise funds to help this sites 'Fresh Meat' and questers get closer to their goals, and just plain help them get dressed. All proceeds go to other users. None is taken for myself.
The way this auction works. I get a slot from the artist. I hold an auction here where the slot goes to the highest bidder. All auctions will run one week. With a 'preview day' before the auction goes off. I take no credit what so ever for any art provided in this auction. Hell, I make stick figures look like shit.
Winner of the auction receives style of choice available in post 4. =)

I hope everyone enjoys the art I bring to you on here.


Start Date: Monday October 13th: 10PM Pacific Time
End Date: Monday October 20th: 10m Pacific Time

Featured Artist: Shido Burrito

Shido is an amazing person! I have known her for about 8 or 9 months now. Her art is amazing as well as her personality. She is a very giving and caring person. Currently she is doing illustrations for a childrens book for the World Food Programme where the proceeds go to helping feed hungry children.
Shido Burrito is an eccentric but lovable anime artist that enjoys anime, manga and the occasional video game. Halloween is her favorite time of year and she is prepared to create for you a ghoulishly awesome work of art! Her favorite candy is Butterfingers.

Styles and Samples

The Blobbie
Cute, cheap and adorable with an innocently stupid look in their small, vacant eyes, there's nothing to hate in a blobbie!

More examples: O O O O O O O O

Big Eyes Chibi
They say the eyes are windows to the soul. There's plenty of eye on these chibis, but alas those windows leave no room for mouths. These chibis are great at gazing cutely up at you until you feed them a cookie!

More examples: O O O O O O O

Chibi
These chibis are hand drawn with loving care, colored carefully with the ancient technique of Photoshop CS2 and created in your avatar's likeness, but way cuter because, let's face it, chibis are awesome.

More examples: O O O O O O O O O O

Anime
So what if your avatar is full of angst and rage? No chibi can ever be taken seriously when it tries to look sexy, or is bloodied from battle, or seethes from anguish that burns within... but anime can. For those times when cute just can't cut it: go anime.

I think it was as CK said. People are cautious because of arrangement this is in. *shrugs* Owell, their loss. =)

You have HB. <3

lavalem 10-17-2008 08:12 AM

Can i bid 420g please <3

CK 10-17-2008 10:37 AM

You're welcome. :) Shido Burrito has really cute art and it'd be a shame for no bids to have been made because people were leery. ^^

You also have to contend with a lot of people who don't earn gold quickly saving up for Halloween... A lot of artists have a sort of 'sale' on their artwork during events, so the people who might normally bid are probably sitting on their gold. XD

lavalem 10-17-2008 11:37 AM

*huggles CK* havent talked to you since.... well a very long time.

Bartuc 10-17-2008 05:20 PM

Lava
You have high bid ^__^

CK
I figure they are sitting on as much gold as possible to hoard/buy EIs and the Commons XD

CrepsleyKabob 10-17-2008 07:01 PM

I'll bid a fox/bunny hat set (2-2.4k?) =P

Bobbb! You have high bid ^__^

CrepsleyKabob 10-17-2008 07:15 PM

I actually meant to bid here before, when you told me about it but I forgot to xD

Andd just to make sure, whoever wins the auction basically gets a slot in Shido's Gaian art shop but you pay for it? So the winner fills out the order form, sends it to you and you order from Shido? Just making sure I understood correctly xP
