[fairyprincess90]

i dont like this picture... heh. V.V
i used pen, pencil, and crayons.
yeah... crayons... i wish i didnt do that... i thought it would look cool but it didnt turn out the way i wanted it. V.V
oh well.

well, the story is:

One sunny afternoon, the fairy princess decided to go for a horse ride out in the woods. As she was riding and enjoyoing the lovely day, she was attacked. The attackers stole her horse and shot her in her wing. She stumbled through the woods tripping over branches and rocks and scraping her legs and arms. She tried finding home, but soon it got dark and she became tired. She fainted from pain and exhaustion. But, along came Magar. Magar was a handsome man who lived in the woods and happened to be out looking for firewood when he came across the poor princess lying in the dirt. So, he bent down and carefully picked her up, taking her to his home where he would nurse her back to health.
He did not know that he'd soon fall in love with this fairy princess.

Very cute fairyprincess! Great job with her wings, and I love her shoes.

Very nice, fairyprincess! The crayon really isn't that bad. I like the colors you used and the style of clothing. Very cool! Nice story too...sounds like a fairy tale I'd like.

I thought I would have time, and I still might this weekend, but don't count me out yet, I'm still going to try to do the contest - I have an idea, there's just another drawing I need to do before I can do this. arg.

It's October 31st! Last call! Entries end at midnight (unless someone gives me an amazingly good reason to extend the deadline.)

[soul alive]

I won't have time to do it this month. ;_; Sad. I just happened to have midterms and huge projects due about every week this month...

But don't count me out next month.

I'm here! I'm here! ....and I won something?

Thanks so much Jaden ^^ I really just enjoyed drawing something that wasn't going to get critiqued by a buncha cranky sleep-deprived art students at school. I'm not sure how a magical moose would go over there ;D

And congrats chibiwolf and fairyprincess! Very cool entries.
