Items For Sale

Hi all, Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I figure it might be worth the time to gauge people's interest in purchasing dragon mockups. Feel free to point me in the right direction if this forum isn't the right one! In the meantime, let's continue on... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [center][b]Warning: post may be image heavy[/b][/center] --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Say you have a jade/silver male mirror dragon and you want to make him prettier. [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/CoOnaOs.png[/img][/center] However, to do so, you would have to purchase scrolls, which are expensive and have no preview option, and dragon search just doesn't cut it all the time. What if the primary/secondary/tertiary gene combo isn't what you had in mind? Bit of a run-around with your hard-earned treasure/gems/what-have-you, isn't it? But what if you could see a mockup of those changes beforehand? Say... what your boy might look like as a spiral... [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/GFWiUZy.png[/img][/center] Or with an iridescent primary and eyespot secondary... [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/YW04iDQ.png[/img][/center] Nah... a shimmer secondary might look better... [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/rpemf52.png[/img][/center] Let's throw in a circuit tertiary just for fun... [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/4NKxrHx.png[/img][/center] How about with some ornamentation since apparels preview only allows one at a time? [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/MNgjhu5.png[/img][/center] Now let's [i]really[/i] deck him out... [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/eijOq9W.png[/img][/center] I did this for my own mirror because I was curious and wanted to plan things out beforehand. Thought it seemed pretty useful (if a little time-consuming) hence the reason why I'm here. Pricing would probably be tiered, depending on how far you want the mockup to go, and would probably look something like this: [indent][b]Breed Change:[/b] $ [b]w/ Primary Gene: [/b]$$ [b]w/ Secondary Gene:[/b] $$$ [b]w/ Tertiary Gene:[/b] $$$$ [b]Apparel:[/b] $ x the number of items[/indent] So, my question(s) for you guys is this: [LIST] [*] Would you be interested in such a service? [*] If so, what do you think would be fair prices? [*] Would a delivery time of 1-3 days be acceptable? [*] Any other suggestions? [/LIST] Thanks for your time! ------------------------ [b]Ping List:[/b] [indent]Varali gaanetto Calix oOLostWandererOo Cila[/indent]

Hi, @Wintaer! I think this is a great idea! I would definitely be interested in such a service. :)

I guess before I can answer the rest of the question, I have to ask how you go about it. Do you use photoshop? And how long does one mockup take you, normally?

Hi, @Varali, thanks for replying! c:

In answer to your questions, yes, I use photoshop. As for time... oof, I&#039;m such a bad judge of time >_< But maybe... 5-10 mins for a simple breed change. Primary genes.... 1 hour to be safe? I&#039;ve only played with iridescent so far. Secondary is about 1 hour as well, I believe. Tertiary... well, judging from what I&#039;ve done so far, I&#039;d say at least 2 hours for it to not look like a mess, and I&#039;ve (still am, actually) only tried working on circuit as of now. Apparel is 10-30 mins, depending on the intricacy of the particular item(s).

Hope that answers your questions!

@Wintaer
I see! Sounds like it should cost more for the genes, then.

Hmm . . . I guess I&#039;d be willing to pay 2500 to 5000 t for an hour of work?

I&#039;m new here too so I have no idea about rates myself, heh heh.

But I&#039;m definitely contacting you when I&#039;ve got some scrolls I want to get! :)

@Varali

I&#039;ll definitely keep those price suggestions in mind, especially since the point of this is to save people some money!

And thanks for the interest ^_^ Hope to see you again soon.

@Wintaer
If you&#039;re ever assembling a ping list for when your mockups go online, please add me to the list? :D But if not, I&#039;ll be checking in anyway. :)

Thanks! o/

@Varali, I&#039;ll make a ping list now! c:

I&#039;d be interested, depending on the cost. I&#039;ve been wondering what Vex would look like with shimmer or incandescent C: Mind pinging me if you open up shop?

@gaanetto and @Calix, I&#039;ll put the two of you on the ping list and let you guys know when I get the shop/service started! In the meantime, how much would you guys be willing to pay for such mockups?
