One last good job to everyone! Your entries were amazing and I really feel bad for DLH for having to choose! To those of you who won, you guys are amazing artists and words can't describe how much you deserved to win! In fact, ALL of you are amazing artists and ALL of you who placed or made honourable mentions deserved it! Every single one of your designs belong in honourable mentions and you should be proud of yourself, especially against such tough competition. I know I'm proud of myself. There are so many amazing drawings on here, and I am bursting with happiness at the fact that I even made honourable mentions, because you guys are all such AWESOME artists!
And I'm not leaving out the people who didn't place or make honourable mentions. When I say, "you guys are all awesome", I mean every single one of you. I saw some absolutely stunning designs on here and I have to admit, I was pretty shocked when they were eliminated. In fact, it made me even more nervous when such good drawings were eliminated. Please don't be hard on yourselves if you didn't make it. You guys' entries were all awesome and everybody knows it, but it seems that people were eliminated based on whether or not the ponies represented DLH well, not how good the designs were. Honestly, some of your entries made me really jealous. Keep entering competitions! You all have the potential to win!
And finally, a message for DLH:
You. Are. Awesome. I don't think I really need to say any more, but I will. It was really nice of you to hold this competition and give artists a chance to show others their skill. You were always supportive of everybody and your comments made me feel like my entries were 20 times better than they actually were. I know it must've been really hard to choose the winners and it must've taken a lot of thought, so thank you for taking the time not only to choose who would place, but for going through every single one of our entries and commenting on them. Your praise gave me confidence and your suggestions were very helpful. You are truly an amazing person. Thank you so much for this amazing opportunity and for your supportive comments!
Good job to everyone and keep drawing! Just so you know, I'll probably be stalking some of your artwork:)

Okie dokie! Anyone who made honorable mentions, please shoot over for your prize(s)! I will be sending about pms shortly to those who kept theirs but I still desire chiefly.

I was wondering do we choose our prizes or do we wait for your trade?

[slothly]

Ahh, well done guys! You all did such a good job, it must have been so hard!
I can see why the winners were picked though, they're fantastic ^u^

Yay for everyone! I guess now I have to stop stalking this thread!
