Hey all!

I am currently highly frustrated because I had just finished typing out the whole chapter, when the whole thing suddenly glitched and disappeared. All my words and all that time, damnit.

Wattpad you *sshole.

*ahem* Sorry to put a damper on this positive atmosphere. Moving on!

I'd like to thank each and every one of you for entering into this competition. You all did a wonderful job, and I don't want any of you to think otherwise. Art is a learning process, and with a little healthy competition, I'm sure you'll all be improving by leaps and bounds!

So don't worry if you didn't place this time. There are definitely going to be many more opportunities for you to unleash your masterpieces onto the world! :>

To make sure that this was a fair and as unbiased judging as possible, I scored each piece out of ten for each of composition, anatomy, creativity and neatness and out of two for the bonus points. Thus, you were 'scored' out of forty-two.

The second and third placers had actually tied on points, and I had to ask for a second opinion from a third party to decide on the placings, and everyone else was definitely very close. :O

But that's enough of me talking, let's get onto the results!

For the honourable mention, the Brass Crown, we have

I love your take on my persona, even though I swear I do not look like that in real life! She's very beautiful with wonderful hair and I really do love this ><

In second place, with the Silver Crown is

Your detailed background adds a wonderful atmosphere to your art piece, and the colour scheme was well thought out. Your unique style of colouring your piece was definitely nice to see, great work!

And finally, in first place with the Gold Crown we have

Jay00Bird !

Your piece does a wonderful job of expressing your allocated emotion, the creative hair and colour scheme all display this theme. Congratulations on first place!

Again, you all did a wonderful job, and this competition was very close! Don't feel discouraged if the results did not come as expected, all of you created wonderful works that you should be proud of and that I was very honoured to be able to see! :)

Winners, make sure to PM me for your prizes and the updated leaderboard will be up soon!

If you have any creative suggestions for the themes of the future contests, feel free to let me know! I will definitely take them into account.

And that's it for now, see you all next time!
