Entering for Category 2

After I tried a lot and wasn't good at all, I decided to enter category 2 (my drawings suck >-<)
so here is just a sketch of my idea:
Spoiler:
Image
Happy Larvesta


The Idea:
It's simple. It is just a Larvesta with a big bow around his body. (I think the bow should have a simliar color to it's "horns")

Somehow Larvesta just reminded myself of those stars, some people put on top of their christmas trees~ It's "horns" just looks like spikes of a star ^__^
So I thought it would fit into that christmas-theme.

Of course the color could be yellow too (like a star and actually like the shiny form of it!)

Special Dex Entry:
Larvesta tried to climb up the Christmas Tree and was catched in a bow. But how can it come off again?

here are my entrie for

2. Submitting an idea for a potential VA

I was hoping the last couple of years that there are times special promos that go together. similar to the valantine nidorans. So my idea here. there boxing in the pokemon always 4 per row, one might indeed make four special promos to a picture. I thought as a Santa Claus with his sleigh profitable. because I can not draw so well, I just simply traced the sake of being able to explain in more detail just about my idea. as Santa Claus of course you can also take any other pokemon. reindeer as I thought of sawsbuck. could sawsbuck each of the 3 to make a different color. the last sawsbuck what attracts so the sled will get a red nose like Rudolph the reindeer. the feet of the sawsbuck should look for so suspended. rudolph in the movie it looks so than when they run, the whole case only with the air. it can foot movements of each sawsbuck different. once widely held and then closely consulted.

and so should the whole then look at the end in a row.

Hi :)
So, here is my entry for the second category, submitting an idea for a potential VA:


My potential VA is showing a Skitty with a Santa Hat on its head, which is sitting in a Christmas Stocking with some Cookies.

Of course the Skitty has its typical pink-yellow colors. There's a smile in its face, because it is very happy about the Christmas Cookies it has found in the Stocking.
It holds the Cookies in its little paws. In the Sketch they're potrayed very simple, but if the artist wanted to, they could be drawn with some chocolate chips or sprinkles on it, or maybe they could make them shaped in a special way.

The Christmas Stocking is red with a white, fluffy brim, the same as the Santa Clause Hat, which is worn by Skitty. It's christmas after all and skitty has been excited for it just like the others!
On the right side of the Christmas Stocking hangs a mistletoe. Its leaves are in a shiny green and the round, little berries are red.

Skitty's tail which is supposed to hang out of the stocking, can be left out if it isn't looking right in the picture or can't be displayed properly. I just found it cute and added it to the sketch!


Special Dex Entry:
Look what Skitty found in the Christmas Stocking! Certainly it is very happy about this early Christmas Present.

Going with number 2, because I know this isn't good enough to use straight off, especially since everyone else's are so much better drawn than mine.

I know my art is pretty sloppy, but here's my idea. I think it's a bit amusing because Igglybuff has always somewhat resembled not only a balloon but a marshmallow.

It's... Cocoa Igglybuff!

Image

It was extremely hard to make this but I really liked the idea so I set to work sketching with a pencil then taking a picture of it with a digital camera. After that I uploaded it, traced over it and colored the picture. I then added the finishing touches such as shadows and shiny spots.

Here's the sketch on paper in case anyone was wanting to see it (know that it will take forever to load):
Spoiler:
Image
I suppose the description would be... "Make sure to blow on it so you don't burn yourself, Igglybuff!"

2. Submitting an idea for a potential VA

Hi artists here my little contribution to the contest:
Image
Sableye
It digs branching holes in caves using its sharp claws in search of food-(xmas) food. A SABLEYE lurks in darkness and is seen only rarely.
My idea was to replace the gems for xmas icons i made the sableye black because its looks nice for the dark days before xmas. And i have read it likes dark places..
I used the software paint to make it all together and used Cucu Tudor-Ionel and the InstaTuts.com icons for free! to download and you can use them in any application whether it’s personal or commercial

I have seen so many nice entries i hope you like my idea

Here is my entry for the second cathegory: Submitting an idea for a potential VA

My idea is a Juggling Seel. You know, like the sealions in the circus that juggle with a ball on their nose.

My Seel is not juggling with a ball, but with Christmas tree ball ornament. The Christmas tree ball ornament is not a normal one, it looks like a Spheal. Well, it's rather a Spheal that looks like a Christmas tree ball ornament^^
Spoiler for Here is my sketch:
Image
It's a baby Spheal that thought it would be fun to be a Christmas tree ball ornament^^
In my sketch, the seel is just throwing the spheal from its tail fin to its head. (I wanted to have the spheal on the nose of the seel, but I didn't manage to draw it like this^^")

Now some details:
normal version: The seel and the little Spheal look like the normal ones (concerning the colours). Santas' cap on the head of the seel is red with a white pompon, like a normal Santa cap.
The stars on the Spheal are yellow and the fir under its mouth is green.

shiny version: The seel and the Spheal look like the shiny versions of them. And the colours of the Santa cap, the stars and the fir should be the same as in the normal version, but a bit darker. For example: colour of normal Santa cap, colour of shiny Santa cap

Pokédex name: Christmas Juggling Seel

Pokédex entry: Seel likes playing with balls, but juggling with a Christmas tree ball ornament is even better =) Though... this is not a Christmas ornament but a little baby Spheal! Never mind, it's funny anyway.. at least for the seel.

If there are any questions, feel free to ask me =)

Category 1 - Creating the entire VA

I decided to make a Christmas-themed Virtuadopt, simply because its fitting to the time of the year (I'm so looking forward to Christmas *-*). I tried my best to get as close to the current VA-style as I could. Programs used: Paint Tool Sai, Gimp

Poinsettia Angel Lilligant

[250x250]

ImageImage

The silver edition is the normal one and the gold edition is the shiny one.
I decided for silver and gold because these are the first colours that come into my mind when I think of angels and they are fitting pretty good for the Christmas time itself, too.

[100x100]

ImageImage

[40x40]

Image Image

[possible Dex entry]
That's a festive Lilligant. Did you know that the poinsettia on its head only blossoms during Christmas time?

here is my idea for 2. Submitting an idea for a potential VA

it can be used for new years or birthday or summer event (hanabi).
and as whimsicott is my favourite pokémon, it has to be a whimsi ^^''
it is sitting on a rocket looking like this 'o_O', flying to the sky.
Image

a text could be:
watch out, whimsicott!! don't burn yourself! you shouldn't be sitting on a rocket...

the whimsicott will have its normal colours, the rocket maybe in green with a yellow cap? and a shiny version the normal shiny colours of whimsi and the rocket maybe in yellow with a pink cap? leave it to your imagination XD

AHH I totally forgot about this. Hope it is not too late.
I wanted to take part in category 1, but now I don't have enough time, so its just category 2. Hope you like the sketch.

My Idea is: Wild West Keldeo
Spoiler:
Image
It is colored like a normal Keldeo (you can make a shiny as well) with light brown/ochre clothes. The hat could be any color, but I thought black would fit for the red mane.

possible dex entry: Bandits, Outlaws, Cheaters...watch out! Wild West Keldeo is around!

Copperbat and me just realized, that the contest ended 27th and not 30th.

I really hope it is in time, because I always have problems with the timezones.

So I want to propose: Tinsel Joltik

Joltik is sitting on a cutout from a christmas tree branch and spinning a golden tinsel yarn (I mean this http://www.mottoparty.com/files/2012/08 ... d-1664.jpg) from his mandible to the branch. There are already some more yarns on the branch, so you can see Joltik is already working for a while. Joltik can be colored in his normal yellow, but I thought it would look nicer if its sparkles gold like the tinsel.
For the Shiny version you can use silver or any other typicall tinsel color.

dex entry: Joltik likes very individualistic christmas tree decoration.
