SO HARD to choose! these are amazing!
-
Lovely lovely! Everyone did such a nice job!
-
Well my head has exploded....want to vote for 5 of them....
-
Oooh such a tough competition this year! So many beautiful pieces, everyone did a wonderful job!! :) :biggrin:
-
Oh man, what a hard choice!!
-
pick one? man this is not going to be easy.
-
:( Scanner kinda destroyed Lovin Kisses in Santa Baby... sorry everyone! I really put my best skills to the painting task, but the late hour forced a bad scan... I'll post a better image in my gallery at some point.
Glad to see so many great artworks, though! I love all the activity in BethMcBeth's piece!
-
Oh man. Another hard choice! You guys are all so talented and I never know who to choose! :faint:
-
Squeeee!!!! These are all so adorable!! I am really going to have to think hard. I love seeing all of the different styles!! What a wonderful group of talented artists!! :D
-
For Santa Baby you gotta be hearing Eartha Kitt singing it. :) That's my favorite version! She's got the sable, 54 convertible, ring, and deed (in the backseat). My original also had them on the deck of a yacht, but the scanner didn't pick up enough detail so I pivoted with the bg...
-
woah !! beautiful work from everyone ♥
-
Oh dear, everyone else's work are so far superior over mine. I don't even know who to choose either. All of you did so well!
-

Don´t say that, yours is beautiful and has such a warm and cozy feel to it! But I agree it is hard, and aspecially since each work is so different from the other.
-
Some wonderful entries, I had a super hard time choosing between two!

See that is the problem with that song, can not stand it, though that is one of the better versions of it. It is one of those songs they play endless at work so I have come to hate it. LOL

Aww thank you so much PonyQueen!!
I think the scanner didn't do to much harm to your work. It made Lovin' Kisses more mysterious and possibly more sexy. LOL!!! Still awesome and I love Spike in the car too.
-
I'm glad we have two weeks I don't know who to vote for.......... :what:
-
I've properly photographed my Santa Baby in daylight, and placed the image in my gallery (signature link) if anyone wants to check it out. I'm going to start on next year's comp today so I don't run out of time again! :P
-
Well, it´s not exactly like the scanning did wonders for Sleigh Ride either... The colors came out bleak and droll compared to reality. It´s annoying, but what can you do?
-
There are so many gorgeous entries. :heart: I'll try to write something about each of them soon. (Today is very busy, lol) so this is sort of a placeholder post.
-
Can we still vote if we entered? (For some reason I can't see the results...has anypony voted yet?)
-
You usually can't see the results until you vote. But there should be an option to say "view results"
-
53 voters so far so going well. Wonderful Christmas Time is leading.
-
Finally made a choice for this comp, but I do love everything. So Christmas-y!
-
I already cast my vote earlier but I thought it would be fun to leave a comment on each as everyone has done such a marvellous job! Let's see...
Santa Baby
I'm sorry the scan didn't turn out as planned - I'd love to see the details a bit better, especially on the pony herself! Lovin' Kisses was a great choice however, and the details on the car are simply mindblowing.
Wonderful Christmas Time
There is a cosy and warm atmosphere in this one, I don't remember the lyrics but the picture does fit the title perfectly! I love the excited look on all the baby ponies' faces. Great job on details too, the Majesty and Firefly socks, for example. :)
Sleigh Ride,
Traditional ponies + traditional media = me likey! ;) This drawing gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling; the baby ponies look so warm and snug under the blanket.
We Three Kings
I love the bold colours in this one, and the tight cropping adds nicely to the impact! I also like the masculine look of the ponies and their varied outfits. Great job!
O' Holy Night
Love the original idea and the play on perspective! Tiffany looks very pretty too.
Silent Night
Ooh mixed media! This would make a cute Christmas card. :) I like the G3-style ponies and the simple yet strong look of the two-tone background.
I Saw Three Ships
Wow, so much going on in this image! Amazing detail. While the interpretation is wildly different from the feeling I personally get out of this song, this is one of my favourite pieces due to the crazy fun and attention to detail!
Carol of the Bells
Very nice style, I really like the contrast between the carefully shaded body and the sketchy hair and antlers. The bright orange really pops! The tilt of her head also sends those bells up in the air; I can almost hear them ring!
Jingle Bells
Squee, what a bunch of cute little dragons! The soft background is beautiful and I love the sense of motion and the varied poses, well done!
All I Want For Christmas
I've got to admit this song is one of my least favourites... the illustration, on the other hand, is lovely! I can almost sense the warmth of the fire. The dim lighting and the light from the fireplace give this piece such a beautiful, comforting atmosphere.
Fab work, everyone!

Thank you! I don't know if anyone noticed but I used the G1 ponies from the episode "Baby, it's cold outside" with a few thrown in because not too many ponies were in the episode :) And Merry treats to keep with the Christmas theme :P

Congratulations, Bekuno! :cheer:

So many great pieces - I loved seeing all the different styles!
Congratulations Bekuno! :iconclap: You have such a nice illustrating technique. I really loved how you gave all the ponies different hair styles! And I was so happy to see 2 of my favorite childhood ponies in your piece - Tiddley-Winks and Cuddles. My brother and I would play with them the most :)
