• Hearth's Warming Giveaway Winners and Entrants - Day 1

    Up above is a picture of Twilight napping, by 7-year-old August of Newtown, PA. Aww!

    As promised, join us after the break for the winners of the first day of the Hearth's Warming Microcomic Giveaway!

    The winner for the colouring in category was chosen by the best of military-grade random number generators. Somewhere out there, cyclotrons consumed gigawatts to produce a number between 1 and 4. I could have used a die, but no. The winning entry was from King Falcon.


    The original picture, drawn from the prompt, was chosen by my kidnapping the rest of the staff and locking them in PK's closet until they had chosen a winner. There are probably easier ways to ensure impartiality, but none quite so fun. The winning entry was from HydrusBeta.


    Winners will be contacted by a member of staff, probably Sethisto if we can trick him by suggesting Trixie will be there... You can also see all of the entries for day 1 by clicking right here. A great big thanks to all entrants so far, and good luck for future days!

    Pinkula Colored - Jude Gesek

    Tried my hand at coloring the PixelKitties image. Image is just in my Stash on DeviantArt as I am unsure if I'm able to post it. I may have colored it, but PixelKitties drew it and I don't want to do anything without permission of some kind.
    Festive Nap Shkle - MyBoyJ

    My entry for day 1 of Equestria Daily's Hearth's Warming Comic Giveaway contest. The prompt was to draw a pony napping, so here we have my OC, Shkle, napping in the position that comes most naturally.
    Stuffed Vellum - VGJustice

    Quicky doodle for Equestria Daily’s Hearth’s Warming Eve competition. It also felt like fun to doodle up Vellum stuffed well beyond whatever capacity he should have. Sketched and inked, then colored with crayons. Because crayons are awesome.
    Creamy, Creamy Frosting... - Autumn

    I am an aspiring 12 year old artist, I made this picture hurriedly as soon as I saw the challenge, the first thing that came to my mind when I saw the theme was Pinkie talking about frosting dreams and drooling all over. It isn't meant to be a sexual picture whatsoever, it is meant to be taken literally in the fact that Pinkie is actually dreaming about frosting.
    Element of Magic? I THINK NOT! - Gabriela

    I added the Colt Poster in the background of the final panel just for fun. Just kinda left him for interpretation. Put the hoof autograph though so maybe a book author or band singer. Meghan McCarthy sure is a busy pony though so I made her working during the comic and since I wanted to break the 4th wall I decided the best way was to turn a human into a pony writing about the ponies. Hopefully not too confusing...
    Cloud Nap - Hydrus Beta

    Thanks, EQD!
    Pillow Hugger - onagova

    Hope you guy accept beginner's work. I just want to try out my luck XD

    12 What is a Gummy? - Ponkool4

    A miserable little pile of alligator.
    13 comfortable box - Stine

    I have no idea.
    14 Discord's Ghost of Christmas Past - Will Goodwin

    This is sorta something I came up with a while back, it's my attempt at an MLP version of Scrooge. It's suggesting that Discord broke Celestia's heart one Christmas in his past.
    15 What can be eaten cannot be uneaten - Nicholas

    Somepony ate too much? Jappleack surely never heard about it!
    16 Rainbow Dash Nap sketch - Ponkool4

    I drew the lines on paper and then scanned it in and added color. Please Note: This sketch is directly based off of Pikn2's vector: http://fav.me/d4tooln

    And one final entry from 7-year-old August, age 7, of Newtown PA, "Here's my image of Twilight Sparkle napping". Aww!
