Two Auctions & A Raffle


Hello! This is a Grand Opening event for the new shop, Dinotopia! Don't know what Dinotopia is? Click here to check it out!

The Grand Opening event will go for two weeks. For the first week, there will be a cosplay Raptor Red auction, and a Smilodon raffle! The second week will have a mystery custom auction!

Also, during the first week, I will be randomly asking Dinotopia trivia questions for free raffle tickets! Feel free to check Google, www.dinotopia.com, the books themselves, or the main shop for the answers.

Enjoy and have fun!

PS - No dinosaurs are ever RP required. Just encouraged! :3
Custom Auction
Snipe Guard started on page 70


And the mystery auction is... a custom auction! There are only two limitations: no cosplays, and you can't request a Utahraptor. You can have your dinosaur start at any stage you want (egg, baby, teen, or adult).

The species you can pick from are as follows: Brachiosaurus, Gallimimus, Stegosaurus, Stygimoloch, Triceratops, Smilodon, Parasurolophus, Skybax (Quetzocoatlus), or Spinosaurus.

And for coloring examples, here are the dinosaurs out so far:

Cosplay Auction
OVER.


So, what is the cosplay auction of!? You will be bidding on a Raptor Red cosplay! Yes, that means this is a rare dinosaur being offered here. Each species of rare dinosaurs are only offered once every two months, at least.

Raptor Red is a character from a great book titled, what else, Raptor Red, written by Robert T. Bakker. I highly recommend this book; it's one of my favorites!

Edit:

People who can not bid in the auctions or buy raffle tickets:

Big_Bird13 - Trying to sell lineart that doesn't belong to them, and running around bidding high amounts on random auctions with a new account. Too suspicious.
