Now, if you have been following my thread titled 'The Naughty Dog Project' under the General Collecting Chat forum then you'll have an idea of what this is all about. As I mentioned in one of my updates, the name of the project was a place-holder and I wouldn't be able to use that name due to copyright.

So.. The Naughty Dog Project is no more!


This looks much better!

Now I was very secretive about the whole thing. Well now I am going to spill the beans!

Project A/BC is a project I am working on with a very talented individual. The person I am working with is the genius that is Charles Zembillas.

Charles is known for being the artist on the Crash Bandicoot, Spyro the Dragon and Jak and Daxter series, contributing to the success of the games and the sales which have topped over 40million combined.

In 1998 Charles opened his own art academy in Burbank, California - http://www.theanimationacademy.com/

The 'A' in A/BC stands for Academy and the 'BC' stands for Boys' Club here in the UK which is the charity I volunteer and fundraise for.

Together we are auctioning Charles' art where 75% of the selling price goes towards his academy and the remaining 25% goes towards the Boys' Club. On this thread I will be updating it with each individual auction where we will be auctioning off hand drawn, original, one of a kind pieces of art. The chance to participate in such a project was an opportunity I just couldn't pass up!

PS: I will still be getting signed video games from developers and selling them for 100% to the charity I volunteer for.

Here is the first auction - I hope you enjoy! - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121587860793?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

You mean for my other auctions that don't involve funds going to the academy? If so I don't reveal what I'm listing to anyway I'm afraid.

You said it was the first one so, as this one concerns Crash Bandicoot, I'd like to know if there will be some other related stuff.

For now all I can mention is auctioning art. Sorry!

This doesn't seem to be as popular with others as I had imagined.. That's a shame!

Due to unforeseen circumstances.. There will be a short break on this project. Could it be locked for the time being and could I have my charity auction thread unlocked please?
