weep not so ,, gently
Sorry this took so long you guys !! Holidays are always a mess and I've had some stuff going on as well but !! Hopefully this makes up for it a bit c:

First off I'm gonna give a shout out to all of our HMs !! There were so many beautiful forms finished forms for this Kalon that it's honestly breath taking and I had to go over all the forms multiple times :pray: These are listed in no particular order, mostly just as I pulled them up in tabs <3
feral., SilhouetteStallion, tremolite, nermal1999, Spirittai1, notwearingsocks, moondust405, Divantae, 76heart, S-Simplicity, rainichi

________________________________

Next we have our RUs !! Now usually we only do one or two RUs for 00 competitions but I literally spent two hours staring at my laptop trying to narrow down which two I thought should get them and in the end for one reason or another I just could not for the life of me do that SO instead we have Four RUs for you guys honestly between story telling, concept, and just the emotions between each form i couldn't tell you an order for these guys, just that I absolutely loved all four of them and couldn't let that slid ladskjf
trans, qpple, ky-on, ✦ nemuri

And lastly of course we have our winner As always the pure amount of talent and work that goes into these characters is just ,,,, jaw dropping and this round is no different aaaaa

First off Big congrats to kyar. For winning such an amazing Kalon
This is incredibly one gorgeous girl and I can't wait to see what you do with her around the forums.

Secondly I just wanted to congratulate trans, qpple, KY-on, ✦ nemuri, on getting RUs I can't imagine how beautiful those will look and I can't wait to see so many beautiful kals around the Forums and the kalon community.

I'm not gonna lie I'm totally jelly of y'all lol.
But I'm also very thankful for such the opportunity.

Lastly I'd like to say thank you Ground ❌ Zero, for the HM I'm very grateful to have been given this and I'm really glad that you like my entire. I was a bit worried scene I took a unique turn on my entry by using songs to help tell my story but I'm glad that it was able to be enjoyed. I actually had gone through several ideas until I had a day or two left and that's when I managed to finish my writing.

Once again I just want to say thank you and congratulations to the rest of the HM winners and congrats to everyone!

I hope to have a nother chance at a nother amazing kalon like this one.
Have a wonderful day everyone.

[Stormowalf]

Congrats everyone! I had a ton of fun spending my time entering for this comp and I’m happy for all the winners C:
Congrats once again to Kyar, your story was absolutely amazing and it had me hooked from the beginning!

[Kyar]

First of all a HUGE congrats to all the HM and RU winners, you guys created some INCREDIBLE stories! I wish I could say I read every single one but I've been slowly working my way back through those that I didn't get a chance to read before the winners were announced - and there are some really, really wonderful stories, gorgeous imagery, and fabulous art pieces out there holy cow.

I haven't posted here until now because until now I think I've been... pretty well in shock? I've pulled up this contest page literally every day and just stared at her reference trying to get myself to believe that I actually own her - that this isn't just a dream?

Thank you SO much for this absolutely breathtaking kalon, the artist team behind the whole concept and design did such a fantastic job. All the elements together make for such a vivid and inspiring design and I'm just so so grateful that I actually get to take her home. I have a bad habit of falling into self-doubt and I'll admit almost right away after the contest closed I got so terrified I stopped reading other entries, felt awful about mine - and even stopped thinking about the contest altogether because I was so scared and felt so inadequate next to all these other amazing entries. So to come back and actually win?? My heart nearly burst the further down I scrolled and didn't see my name - I was terrified - but what an absolutely incredible surprise. I spent so much time developing this beginning to Nature's story - and I'm so excited to spend even more continuing the story from where my entry left off!

I also have to give a huge thanks to the artists who helped bring my ideas to life, dilly and tigressa both did such amazing artwork and were so wonderful to work with - I'd absolutely recommend commissioning either one of them if you ever get the chance, they are wonderful people and their talent is breathtaking. :)

I feel like I still haven't thoroughly expressed just how much this means to me, but I wanted to thank all of you who've said such sweet things about my entry and Wicced for choosing my form. I really really can't thank you all enough - your comments mean the world to me and I'm so blessed to be able to develop a kalon I've become so attached to over the last handful of months. I'm still in shock, probably will be for a while - but I'm so so grateful. Thank you SO much.
