Description
CLOSED: Winners have been chosen! Thanks for participating everybody! Keep an eye out for more auctions like this one. It may be harder to choose a winner, but at least then I know that the characters are hard-bought, treasured, and will be used.
Clarification: These horse designs are based on birds.
The overwhelming majority was for people to draw the horses in order to adopt, and then I choose who gets it, so for this batch of horses, I'm going to do that again.
I didn't particularly like this method last time I used it (I hate making people draw something and get nothing in return) but if it's what you guys want, it's what you get.
Rules:
1. You can only try for one of them.
2. Drawings have to be uploaded and a link sent to me in a NOTE by January 15th.
3. Name and bio are not required, but encouraged.
4. What you are going to do with the character (comic, harpg, roleplay) IS required in order to try for adoption.
5. Put effort into your drawing. I will be more impressed if it has expression, interaction with another character, a background, shading, etc. All drawings must be colored.
I will announce the winners on the 16th of January.
Adoption Attempts and Winners:
You can find them all in this journal: [link]

I might not be done by the deadline though, school is a hassle. D: If I'm not that's okay, I think I can make a peacock horse somehow, but not exactly the same.

There are lots of peacock horses, so I can't claim the idea. Just make sure to make your own design, rather than one based on mine. Grab a picture of a peacock and go to town!

I'd love to but I haven't been drawing lately, so it would just be a waste of a lovely character!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'd rather see those terrible legs than not at all! You'll never improve if you don't practice! <3

I'm actually going to try for #2!
AHHH IM SO EXCITED
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Please do! Personally I think you'd have a really good chance! She's one of my favorites and I'd like her to go to a really good home.

Sweetness! Number 2 is one of my faves! I love her face markings. <3 I'll be excited with you!

#10 is calling me! I love Peacocks!

Such good ideas, mind if I use them too?
Everybody seems to love these guys so much! I'll probably make more eventually. Thanks for your interest!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sure
I was thinking a Hummingbird Shetland 
Can't wait to see what others come up with. I thought this was the perfect opportunity to jumpstart my stable for HARPG again.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I could make penguin and hummingbird designs and then you can have them if you want them, or you can let them go up for adoption. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I would love to see what you come up with! I'm sure I'll want to keep 'em
These are just some ideas that struck me, but since you are designing them, I'll leave it up to you
For the penguin, I was thinking an emperor(this one would be the most recognizable as a penguin, I think lol): [link]
or a Gentoo: [link]
For the Hummingbird, I liked the "traditional" Ruby Throat: [link]

Sweet, thanks for the references!
I gotta work on commissions tonight and do a bunch of errands today, but maybe I can squeeze in some more birdhorses!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No problem. I try not to go too crazy with pictures when coming up with a design
Hey, it's no big deal. You're the ones making them, so you're the one who decides when. I can't wait to see them!

This idea actually made me think yesterday about making Dart Frog Horses
Cause there's SOOO many designs
Idk, I might do it as a Birthday Giveaway thing :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
I think I've seen something like that before. But it makes for some really interesting designs, for sure!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Either that or I'll do something along those lines, I need to find something else to base them off of though...like fish or something
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ooo fish. I always liked the idea of koi horses. And bettas. Lots of pretty colors to work with.
Not to mention tropical fish. Koi and Betta are conservative compared to the many colors presented there. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think i'll do Koi
I'll have to ask her
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Oooh, I like that idea. Dooo eet! lol
A longgg time ago, I made a mare with toucan markings. I think she's still on my Spiderwick19 account (her name's Azara...?) Haha I don't even remember correctly. Anyways, I think I might bring her back for HARPG.

I love #6!
If I did try for it, would you mind if I made it fully natural in colour (make the creamy bit on the face white, and remove the pink spot)?
👍: 0 ⏩: 3
Weeeell the point was that they have bird colorations. I guess I wouldn't mind if you made the creme white and the pink spot gray.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's alright, I understand why it's like that now. I thought it was just a pattern originally. Silly me. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Ohhhh... they're based on birds... XD
I get it, no matter.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
but they are meant to be based on birds aren't they? if you changed the design it wouldn't look like this anymore: [link]
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It said nothing in the Artist's Comments about it, and I presumed the title was just a random thing.
Fair enough.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol you couldn't tell that they were all based on birds? I can identify most of the birds.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't really like birds, so don't study them.
Horses are my main focus in art, I know more about them than any other animal.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't study birds either, but i can recognise a parrot or a peacock lol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Hahaha this conversation makes me lol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hehe me too, I was just a bit surprised she couldn't see it was birds. and I thought chirp chirp was a dead giveaway
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And I said they were bird-based in my poll about how to adopt them out.
I clarified in the artist's description. XD But I still think it's funny.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Obviously you know more than me then. No one I know owns a bird, I've never come into contact with a parrot, and I've been pecked by a peacock so now avoid them.

lol alliteration. XD
