Charries for learning

Wow, I haven't been on this game in apparently 6 months.
wow.
ok.
So. In the time away from this game, I have become the leader of a small educational group dedicated to teaching youngins about the horse. I have developed this idea, a virtual horse of their own, since a lot of them cannot afford a real horse, or lessons. I have been putting my head against the wall and wondered, why not take the characters that I already had, and make more? Why not create a simulation as a "mock run" for the real horse? But I need some help.

I am going to create a survey for my group, and those who want to participate may. While this is only a program developed for my team, if you would like to participate in the simulation, I may put out a survey for a select few that really want to learn. but no guarantee.

How it will work:
-I need multiple skilled artists to produce REALISTIC characters below.
-I can pay you, but not much, these are mostly "donations" so to speak. I have 700k to spend on this. maybe more. I can also trade characters if so be.
-THIS IS NOT FOR MY PERSONAL USE. these are being used to help kids understand the importance of the horse in a simulation.
-I will collect all of the characters posted and allow the kids to go and "purchase a horse" with make up money.

What is requested of you:
-Create a character of a common horse breed, and type or build.
-Create a description and sale information for that horse. (view ad example below)

-DONT ACTUALLY CREATE AN AD ON HORSE CLICKS. it is just there to show you the information that you need to put along with you horse.
-if you would like pay, I can.

FAQ:

How many do you need?
-at the moment, just 4.

Are free lines ok?
-yes. they are fine.

Would you prefer the lines to be in a standing pose or don't care what pose?
-While I want to stick to realistic, I would prefer a standing pose. Although if you feel so inclined to do more than one "photo" of the same horse, you may pick a pose that either matches: out in the field or in tack that matches your selected discipline.

Does it matter if they are flat colored, cell shaded or greyscaled?
-To stick to the realism effect, cell shading and greyscaled are ok. I wont accept flat art.

And do you want them all based the same? (Say, all flat colored vs. mixtures of shaded & flat)
-Yes.

Will these designs be allowed to be used/sold elsewhere or are you looking for full rights to them for your group of kids?
-Yes, that is fine with me as long as the other user is ok with it.

Not to be rude, but can I be payed for this?
-yes, you may, but limited. As stated above, I have 700k+ to spend on these if necessary. That would be for FULL ownership only tho.

Thank you and please do consider!

When do you need this by? Freelines okay? (I reorganized my pc and need to find where I put all of mine)

hgfnbcnb you're back!

@buck, I would like to have them done as quickly as possible, but I haven't yet sent out the survey to my students.
@raptor as of now, I am. XD

I have oodles of questions for you.

@eliza
1. about 4 to start, just going to do my little ones first.
2. free lines are ok.
3. Any pose is fine with me, similar to something you would see on a sale ad
4. As I said above, I would like them to look as realistic as possible, so probably not flat.
5. Bases should be the same. I will update the requirements now that some interest is in. XD
6. I wouldn't mind them being sold elsewhere, as long as the other end of the purchase line is ok with me using them in the simulation.

I just made a base with Laney, I don't think she'd mind if we used it for this??? ( I'll ask though to make sure) and I have my base from flightfull equines that I wouldn't mind using for this. Give it one last use before dust collection it forever.

I can have 4 designs and hopefully their "ads" done by Thursday night on this base:


They would all be on this base, probably a TB (on image posted), QH(cross?), Paint, and an appy.
If I couldn't get them up by Thursday for whatever reason (unlikely) I could still get them done next weekend.
Pay would be however much or how little you think is befitting.
Let me know if that sounds good to you, or if you'd like to wait and see who else wants to join in on this, or if you want to divvy it up and take 1-2 from me and some from other people :)

O.O
Wow
Absolutely stunning. Your work never ceases to amaze me. O.o
Since I have more teams other than my junior team (4 people) I will see if someone else wouldn't mind to help me with the other 4 or 8 for the highschool's breeding simulation. If you would mind doing the other three for this set?
That sounds good to me! Thank you so much. You will be a big help!

Silver oh my gawd ur back! XD i could give it a go, my art has gotten better since youve been gone lol XD i can provide examples if need be.

oh and bela you can use the base lol

Do provide examples peas 😂 missed you guys

The base with Lan ( Linked you to crude concept art of my own SIM cause's that's all I have of the base lol )

My base for delightful adopts

I absolutely LOVE this idea. Would you still be looking for characters? I'd be more than willing to offer one or two :D

Some examples of my work: BLOOPEEDOOP

@meandrathal I am still looking for about 4 pairs of horses (8 intotal) for the highschool breeding farm simulation. (so in total it would be 2 stallions and 6 mares) if you can do stuff like harpg, tgat would be great. Eliza has an example of what I am looking for above. Thank you for your interest!

Would this be up to your standard?
If so I can do a few more for you; the one I have shown is a Gypsy Vanner, I have a male one already done and plan on a friesan and a rocky mountain horse if you give the go ahead :)
