It has been done! It is finished! All is well! And the it is... My lead mare contest. A while ago I asked you all to make a lead mare for desert herd in my fan story. You all did wonderfully and it’s very hard to pick a winner. IF and only if you didn’t win first place, feel free to keep your entry character. Before I announce the winners, here are the prizes. Remember, just because you didn’t win this time doesn’t mean you won’t next time. Don’t be salty ;3

I didn’t judge entries based on “how good your art is”. I judged off of how well the character would fit my story. I did however compliment and review each piece of artwork, since everybody worked very hard and did great.

PRIZES

First- A headshot/bust of one of your OCs, and a moodboard or a feather.

Second- A moodboard or two feathers.

Third- A feather and a color pallet.

Participant prize- A feather

If you don’t like your prize then you can replace your’s with one of the lower ones.

Please tell me what you want in the comments by May 8th.

It’s time... for the winners to be revealed...

Third Place

Is... EDDIE!!!! 🎈🎈🎈

Just kidding. He didn’t get his entry in on time and failed to ask me for an extension. He was probably too busy killing Pennywise.

Third place

Is actually... AshCloud by CinderFrost!!!

I love the colors that you used for this sis. The feathers mixed really well with the coat color. Her mane is really pretty and so are her hooves. Bonus point for the finger x3

Second place

RippleCloud by NightMist!

Woooo!!!! This is beautiful. Your. Wings. Are. Amazing. I LOVE the colors that you chose and the dark dappled buckskin was an awesome idea. Your background is super cool, I love the mountains. Great job!!!

First place

AspenCloud by Taylor N.!!!!

Congrats! This drawing is absolutely gorgeous. Your anatomy is spectacular and the gradient that you used for the wings is breath taking. I love your description of her, and can’t wait to use her in my fan story. Your art style is incredible, I’m so excited to see more of your drawings in the future.
