Charmers Christmas Carol Comp! 12 Days of Christmas added! (closed)

[Charmer]

Hello Everypony!

Update:
I've added on the 12 Days of Christmas as a second group as I've had a fair bit of interest for that one too. If it works out ok then I'll do the same from now on.
The rules are all the same, however, you just pic ONE of the days to draw, one person per day. First come first served, enter by posting which day you would like to attempt in this post. You may enter both of the comps if you choose, however, please note that the closing dates for both are the same, do only do this if you're sure you'll be able to have your entries complete by Sunday 20th December!

I'm sure you'll all know this by now so I'll be quick in explaining to refresh your memories.
Basically, this is a competition where you have to pick your fave Christmas Carol/Song (nothing rude)
and draw a picture to best depict that carol/song. The main rules are:

1. Pics must use MLP's, it's up to you which generation or which MLP.
2. You may use any medium, pencil, paint, ink, PC.
3. The closing date for entries is on: Sunday November 22nd.
4. There will be only 10 entries so get in quick if you want to take part. Just leave a message below with your choice of carol/song.
5. Try not to pick anything that has already been picked.
6. As soon as all contestants are signed up, you may start drawing.
7. You MUST have your drawings emailed back to me by no later than: Sunday 20th December to either my email on here or to [email protected]
8. I will then put them up for a vote and the winner will be announced just before New Year.

The prize, as usual, will be a load of pony related goodies, some sweets and your persona drawn in a Christmas scene by Aflame (if you don't have a persona, she will create one for you).

Sign me up! Hm... I have to think of a song...

[Charmer]

Will do, let me know the Christmas carol/song asap though. I need that before you start.

[Bekuno]

No 12 days of Christmas this year? That was fun last time, but It's nice that we can choose out own song this year 

Can I have Paul McCartneys "Wonderful Christmastime"? If it needs to be something that fits a certain theme like "Rudolph" or "I want a hippopotamus" rather than just being.. Christmas let me know and I'll pick something else.

[Wild Raspberry]

Ooo, this sounds fun! 
Just a few questions,
Have you done this before? I'd like to see what some of the entries were so I have a bit of an idea what you're looking for.

And does it have to be Hasbro ponies or can you create your own ponies too?

[TickleMePink]

I´d love to join in, if I may? I never participated in any competitions here before but I love both drawing and chrismas carols, so it sounds like fun! My choice for song would be "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow".

[ponyqueen]

Hmmmmmmm tempted to do another song from the Nutcracker, buuuuuuut I think this year for something fresh I'll do "Santa Baby".

[mopthebunny]

Interesting!

Would classical music count?  I had an idea for 'Waltz of the Snowflakes' from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker suite. Not technically a carol, but it's certainly considered to be festive!

Thank you for your interest in this comp. Yes, I have done this a few times before. It used to be just the 12 Days of Xmas but I thought it'd be more interesting to make it more general. Here are a couple of pics from last year. I think the first one was the winner:

Nope, the ponies don't have to be Hasbro, you make use a persona or create your own if you like too!

Yes, that's fine. Just so long as they are Christmasy songs/carols, that's the main thing.

[timpertie]

Sign me up again please! I'd like to do 'We Three Kings'.

[MsMedley]

I'll do one!  'O Holy Night' for the song

[BethMcBeth]

I'll join in and the song I'll do is: "I Saw Three Ships".

[Uninu]

Oh, this is always such a fun one to watch! Can't wait to see this year's entries! I'll see if I could participate this year.

ETA: I would like to be in, my song is Carol of the Bells.
