ALRIGHT! As my Journal suggests, HERE IS THE JOURNAL WHERE I ANNOUNCE MY COLOUR ME HAPPY WINNERS!!!

I absolutely adored EVERYONE'S entries! You all did such FANTASTIC JOBS, and I really mean that! I was so impressed that I had SO much trouble picking a winner that I had to call in back-up! So, together, mum and I picked our winners!

NOW!!!! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!

I feel horrible when I see Digital Artists absolutely WALKING ALL OVER Traditional Artists, so I decided to tier my place getters! I have picked an "OVERALL" winner, and then selected my favourite "2ND PLACE" in BOTH Traditional AND Digital, and a "3RD PLACE" in BOTH Traditional AND Digital! This is NOT designed to 'cheapen' the Placegetters' efforts, but to show an APPRECIATION for BOTH artistic styles.

Below, I will discuss EACH picture, and WHY I chose it for its place, but first, let's RECAP our PRIZE LIST!

REMEMBER - EVERY CONTESTANT GETS 1 FREE SKETCH!!!! YOU ARE ALL WINNERS TO ME!!!

Now, FIRST PLACE getter has first pick of the prize list, then 2ND PLACE getters have 2nd pick and it is FIRST IN BEST DRESSED, and 3rd get to pick ALSO FIRST IN, BEST DRESSED, so PLEASE NO FIGHTING!!!! As the placer before you picks, I will STRIKE their prize from the LIST!

I chose entry as my overall winner not only because of the DELICIOUS colours, but ALSO because she chose to indicate certain elements of his character and explained why she did them the way that she did. I love the concept of his coat, his spells, and his rings - note the spatter on them! Congratulations, *angel-of-rosez! You have officially given Hari his colours!





took second place because of those yummy copper tones and those gorgeous little buttons - I LOVE how she changed them into flowers and insects! Another artist who explained her artistic reasoning, this was a generally fun combination that I thought was wonderful as well! Great work, =AsianBeauti!



also came in second place with her digital entry! Possibly my ONLY chocolate haired entry, he reminds me of Peppermint Crisps, which I happen to LOVE! I've always been a big fan of her colouring style, and was even more impressed with her entry. She was conscious of her background, which I find a good thing. All artists have moments of distraction, but it takes a GREAT one to admit it! Congratulations, ~Sonikki-Valentine!





is an AMAZING artist, without a doubt, but I was ASTONISHED when I read that she did this ALL in PAINT, with which I, personally (and I know a LOT of other artists out there, too... I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!!) are like, "OMG, FAIL..." with. It hurts my BRAIN to think of doing this WITHOUT layers or merciful erasers or anything like that! The background even makes my heart happy! *Throws cloud-confetti* Thank you SO much for all the time you spent on this, =ShouYume!



came in third with her traditional entry. I keep getting pulled into the background, but this isn't such a bad thing! It reminds me of Easter eggs... I guess I kind of have the advantage of being able to see the original version of this, and I understand that our scanner at this point was pathetic and washed all the colour out of everything... The orange and blue vest keeps cracking me up because it's just SO LOUD! XD SO GOOD! Thank you, too, *xDark-Lolita-Angelx!



This was possibly harder than my tattoo competition to judge! I mean, I needed MEGA assistance! There were some entries that I just kept coming back to, but that's just the way things are when you have so many talented artists all competing against so! I'm happy with my choices though, and I hope that you all are to! To everyone who didn't place this time around - PLEASE don't feel disappointed! I really DO love all of your entries, and greatly appreciate the time you spent on your efforts! Without YOU GUYS, there would have been NO COMPETITION! Please step forward to claim your sketches, and keep your eyes peeled for future competitions! It will be a pleasure to have you all back again!
