(⚠ DISCLAIMER ⚠ : Please be considerate of others who don't celebrate Christmas. I will
use the term X-mas because its easier to type, but please just be aware of others beliefs. =9 I'm sorry if the term X-Mas offends you, it doesn't offend me and I am Catholic, but I know
it does offend some people. This was a concern last year so im just clearing the air.
We are all friends here and we would never purposely offend you <3)

Im taking my High School Placement Exam tomorrow so I have been studying like crazy. But 'tis the season, so without further ado, lets get into the competition!

WOOO. Got it done in time!
Wow the photo doesn’t do it justice at all xDDd
ANYWAY,
This is my entry, a picture of Petalcloud as a Breyer holiday horse!!!
I wish it had turned out a little bit more Christmas-themed, but the colors just didn’t match up very well.... I’m still very pleased with it, and very pleased that I’m not all that rusty in terms of traditional drawing, though xD
AIIIIIIIIII I SAW IT ON INSTA ITS SO STINKIN CUTEEE AIIIIIIIII
Hope I’m not too late! Here is bumbleberry under the mistletoe!
Im not judging till Sunday so get your entry in and i will count it!!
Oop- completely forgot about this xD Starleaf, if it’s okay, do you think you could extend a week for me...? I’ve been so busy and mourning ( won’t go into details). It’s totally fine if you don’t want to give me an extra week tho xd
HEY EVERYONE!! I know this isn't my challenge, but a FRIENDLY REMINDER!!! THE DEADLINE IS TOMORROW!! SO PLEASE GET YOUR ART PIECES IN!!! :)
Okay, so I decided to redraw it. In this one I drew Windheart as "Santa" and that was mostly because I've never drawn her before, and she just seems so happy and jolly all the time
I don't know why, but I decided to do Santa as a Pegasus! So anyway, here he is
I finished mine!!! I did Stormtail pulling Petalcloud in a sled/sleigh!!!!!
I don't think either of them are very happy about it if I'm being honest XD WELP, I'm the artist and I can make the characters do whatever I want them to do in my drawings!!! XD I spent a good 2 weeks on this drawing (mostly because I was busy with school and didn't have time to work on it), and I was REALLY stuck on Petalcloud, it just seemed like something was missing. THEN, last night I went for a walk with my mom, older sister, and dog, and decided to make Petalcloud wear an outfit that resembled the one my sister was wearing!
I'm REALLY happy with how it turned out, and I spent like 3 hours coloring this XD
I hope you like it!!!!!!!
Here's my drawing:
Star and Morningleaf decorating the Christmas tree
So... I've been sick with a cold for the last few days and I've feeling pretty out of it, but today, I'm feeling better, and so I wanted to get a least one of my challenge entries out of the way. However, I had zero ideas about what I wanted to draw... so... I ended up redrawing a picture of Echofrost I did a few years ago for another Christmas challenge, just with a little 2020 twist:
(this is the original)
My entry:
Yeah...it didn't turn out to good. Anyway, it's Star Claus (Santa Claus) and Morningleaf Claus (Mrs. Claus). I also added one of Brackentail's feathers because I could just so see Brackentail spying on Morningleaf as she and Star looked through the presents or something XD
Hope you like it!!!
HERE IS MY SUBMISSIONNNNNNNNNN!!! :D
SO! For those of you who MIGHT not be familiar with this Christmas Tradition, if two people find themselves under the mistletoe (The plant Bumblewind is holding), then they must exchange a kiss. I KNOW! Kinda gross and awkward, right? XD Anyway! I decided to take a more humorous approach to this tradition and stick Frostfire and Larksong under the mistletoe! And they DON'T seem all to happy with being put on the spot, well, Larksong actually seems ok with it (And Frostfire is also probably secretly ok with that too! But don't tell him I told you!)! XD Anyway! I hope you like the pictureeeeee!!!
@Stormsun You can do two! Feel free to add as many characters as you want!
Am I allowed to have more then one pegasus in my drawing? I'm doing Star as Santa and I hoped I could add Morningleaf to....
I'll try!
I'm gonna try!
Sign me UP!!!!
I'm in!!!! question: Are references ok to use?
I’m in! Do you want to assign us characters so we don’t have doubling? :3
