Judge Comments:
1) I will start off by saying I like the texture in the pieces, and dressing the two up as the earth and sun is also cute. But I find the pictures lacking in energy and winter spirit.
2) I didn’t really understand what was happening until I read the description, then it was cute.
The judges give Vox a combined score of 30. Their training gives them an additional 56 points for a final score of 86.

Judge Scores: 30, 40
Judge Comments:
1) I like how the characters are more focused in on while the background is a little fuzzy
2) The calm but still in motion feels to both pieces is lovely, it very much feels like a piece fit for the winter time. I love the warm colors that pop out against the cool colors and how they don’t become one with the piece.
The judges give Bunting a combined score of 70. Their training gives them an additional 20 points for a final score of 90.

1 SC, x1 Small Health Potion, Sheep, 100 Silvence, Padron Pepper Roulette, Rusty Stone, Diamond, +1 Max HP

Judge Comments:
1) The art style itself reminds me of one of those kids books, and I love that. The blue does blend in together a bit but as the theme is a colder themed one that is understandable. The pop of color draws your eyes around the piece and I find the entry cute.
2) The brush used on the first one makes it look like a picture book coming to life
The judges give Calvero a combined score of 70. Their training gives them an additional 80 points for a final score of 150.
Prizes:
1 SC, 2 Max HP, x1 Small Health Potion, Sheep, 200 Silvence, Padron Pepper Roulette, Berries, Limestone, Herbs, Limestone
Setting Sun and Solstice Hunt by cosmonstars
Competitors: Sunset 251 and Liam 28
Judge Scores: 48, 20
Judge Comments:
1) I’m just a sucker for textures so those leaf and light textures in the first picture are just perfect. It strays from the typical blues for a warmer approach and it looks lovely. With the second part, the costumes are adorable (dem lil boots <3) but I personally wish for more vibrant colors over the murky greenish brown
2) It’s always a pleasure to see Liam having a grand time with all of his little jungle dragons
The judges give Sunset a combined score of 68. Their training gives them an additional 30 points for a final score of 98.
Prizes:
1 SC, x1 String, 100 Silvence, Padron Pepper Roulette, Herbs, Emerald, +1 Max HP
