Description THIS AUCTION IS OPEN!!! GO BID. NOW.

I'll update later with the info for each horse, this is mainly just a preview of what's on offer.

How to Bid
1. Accepted HARPG members only.
2. Draw or paint the horse.
3. Upload to dA, remember to fill in the info.
4. Note me with your picture and a link to your stable journal.

Rules and Hints

1. Follow the rules.
2. No tracing, use of linearts, stolen images, photo-manipulations or anything of the like. Your entry will be disqualified.
3. These horses can be any age from 1-5 years old.
4. I reserve the right to deny applications as I see fit.
5. These horses are to be racehorses.
6. Headshots are accepted, but full body will win against headshot. Same for stories, bids without stories will be accepted, but stories will have a considerably greater chance at winning.
7. I will be biased towards stables that already have established racing sections.
8. Effort, effort, effort. The more effort I see in the picture, the better the chance you have of winning.
9. If you draw two pictures for one bid, I'll only count the first picture.
10. No whining.
11. Winners will be determined based on a scaled point system (see below for more detail). If there is a tie, the RNGs will determine the winner. Pinched this one from TJ, lol.

~ Winners will be decided based on a scale that will hopefully make things more objective. Artistic ability is not counted. Bids must pass 15 points or they will not win even if they are the only bid. A maximum of 45 points can be earned. Points are given in many ways, some of which include name cleverness, appearance (as in build, color, etc), your HARPG stable and how many thoroughbred racers you have, effort, and capturing the character of the horse.

Beautiful yearlings, I would adopt, but I'm not looking for Thoroughbreds. I especially like the grey one. Also I love your auction rules!

ohhhhhh!! She's pretty! Who is her half brother though? I looked on pedigree queery and apparantly Anbari has no foals. You only call a horse a half sibling if they share the same mother, since the stallions sire hundreds of foals every year. Either way, super lovable foal. I WANTS!!!

Kimblewick In reply to Pliochippus [2011-01-27 20:44:27 +0000 UTC]

Her half "brother" would be the previous HIP 9, Fionn. Well, he may be called Fionn. I'm still debating it. I'll just add in her information that her "sibling" is the previous HIP. Thanks. I always learn things from you, you're like a walking racing encyclopaedia, lol. Glad you like her!

Pliochippus In reply to Kimblewick [2011-01-27 21:29:32 +0000 UTC]

I thought it might be the original Hip 9 you were reffering to, but thought I should check Fionn is a cool name, does it mean anything? I'm glad I can be of any assistance, I always enjoy helping my friends further their education in racing when I can

Kimblewick In reply to Pliochippus [2011-01-27 21:36:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Fionn is the original name of Finn McCool, a warrior in Irish mythology who can also be known as a giant - the same one who built the Giant's Causeway. [link] . I'm dithering on what to call him. I know I want it related to Fionn, but hmm.
