MLP Colored My Life Contest by Yoshi Ringo

PLEASE UPLOAD ONLY ON DEC. 21 IF POSSIBLE!

Something important: Even if you are my most bestest friends or know you so well, won't mean I'll put you higher. After we get each entry, we'll forget completly who did it and just look at the art itself, so please don't be sad if your not placed where you want to be, just keep your head up and say "I'll do better next time and keep improving"
I hope no hard feelings after this contest, thank you for those who understand.

First off, bravo on that animation! Secondly, oh man I gotta get my flank in gear for this and actually draw a background! Haha! I'm pumped! Can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with.

Great! The 21st Is the day before I leave for Christmas! :D

I don't know... I think I'm kinda bad at backrounds. I'll try my bestest, though. l:>

25 Nov, 2013, 1:16 am

I'm probably not going to enter, but I'll definitely check out the entries!

aquajayfeather

25 Nov, 2013, 1:17 am

As soon as I read the has to be over hours I went: Oh. But I'll try and enter :D

Krazy Katt111

25 Nov, 2013, 1:27 am

I'm reaaaally freakin' slow and ALWAYS take atleast 7 hours on a decent picture. So if I were to enter, the time thing wouldn't be a problem for me. :P

Rogue Ranger

25 Nov, 2013, 1:38 am

Ah, I enjoyed this as an animation, especially the intro (after the black), but I also like the positive way you approach the contest. You made me realize that my animation backgrounds are boring though. :P Black is easier to keep it layered in 3D (and not have to compress to 2D), but I'll try challenging myself. Also, it should be interesting to see if people upload them all on Dec 21 and what that will look like in "Trending". Sadly, my pony drawing skills are sub-par at best. But maybe I'll be the one person who visits your dA galleries. :3

may i join?

Shy The Cat

25 Nov, 2013, 1:52 am

Imma join fluffas!
Ummm but I have a teeeeny complaint
I draw quickly, the 4 hours rule is a problem to me. I'll do my best and get it over an hour

Yoshi Ringo

25 Nov, 2013, 1:57 am

Holy shizz, dang, I was expecting alot of "I'll never win" attitude. Right now reading the comments to know everyone's pumped and ready for this contest. 21st may be far, but this will be a chance for everyone that did put in all that effort to get a little more recognition, a chance to be discovered, even if it's a few people. ^-^

McWhiteRose

25 Nov, 2013, 2:21 am

I.....I dont think it can make up to 4 hours......T-T
WHY AM I AN IMPERFECION!?

Raptorfeathers

25 Nov, 2013, 2:39 am

I shall go for it...but 4 hours...jeez...never taken that long on a pic...

kshame

25 Nov, 2013, 2:44 am

Its not a fetish! XD lol and u make me seem like huge per.verted freak! ....wich is true though ^^;
But yes if your a winner and u request my art I will promise to make it spectacular and smexy if u want ;3 good luck everyone!!

Krazy Katt111

25 Nov, 2013, 2:46 am

Also, I can't visit your dA accounts because my computer decided to turn its back on me right before the s4 premier.
So much disappointment. X(

Yoshi Ringo

25 Nov, 2013, 2:47 am

^I'm sowwyyyyy, its just for the lulz! X3

25 Nov, 2013, 2:49 am

HEHEHE, DAT TIMING FAIL XD

Mochhii

25 Nov, 2013, 2:51 am

Reply: You will always be my friend, even if I get 2nd place or lower! c: *Hugs back and shoves a sammich down your throat*

Also, I don't want to sound like a spoil brat, but about my entry. Can I just draw my oc with @Thelastcommando? (I'm not use to drawing 2 or more ponies in one picture...:c)

Touko

25 Nov, 2013, 2:54 am

I personally think this is an absolutely great idea! Some of my better drawings have only taken about 3-4 hours, so this shouldn't be too hard for me. Also, I have an idea for my entry...so be ready! >:D

Mushy Mushrooms

25 Nov, 2013, 3:07 am

if everybody posts it on the 21st nobody can steal ideas is that why u did it

Mushy Mushrooms

25 Nov, 2013, 3:08 am

hmm now i have to think of an idea for this

Davidsfire

25 Nov, 2013, 3:18 am

well lets see how many great artist will join and everyone is free to join and if anything you can always add more to make that time limit...

Oh yeah about my prizes because many don't know what a "Vector" pony art is and that is a art made of parts and shapes to make a drawing any size without losing what it is great for prints and shirts. Also I draw them as show quality so you can see how they look like if they came out directly from the actual show but since I am generous I will do something special for the ones that didn't one the main prizes but would be on my deviantart because of the art programs I use but if anything feel to contact me or anyone else for more info

Fredi

25 Nov, 2013, 3:45 am

Dang, i wanted to enter. But i'll be in new zealand on the 21! Well, good luck to every one, and may the odds be ever in your favor!

Mr.Doodles

25 Nov, 2013, 4:04 am

I'll burn my brightest if you'll have me.

Cinos

25 Nov, 2013, 4:21 am

I can't draw for four hours, but I can draw for two, so can I make two entries that both took two hours to draw?

SmolPapyrus

25 Nov, 2013, 4:24 am

I'm gonna try. But i draw fast. My best work with no ref. was about 2:30 and i can't be patient enough. I will try though!

moved-to-karasunos

25 Nov, 2013, 4:55 am

ill draw the following in my entry
My ponysona:Spade
Sunshard-Artzyshy
Inkcloud-Painted Wolf
Bluemoon-Nikki Wolfii
Lando-Orlando L.
Icyfire-Icyfire the pony
Sprite-Sprite
and Dead Hooves-Dead Hooves

-Relock-

25 Nov, 2013, 5:09 am

Oh! That Vector art! xD That is the kind I make/am currently making. Illustrator? That is what I use. Love that program. Oh well. It is fine. Can't wait to see all da entrees

Yoshi Ringo

25 Nov, 2013, 5:14 am

GUYS REMEMBER, YOUR OC IS THE SPOTLIGHT, WIP ARE OK, BUT THEN DELETE AFTER I GIVE YOU MY COMMENT ON WHAT I THINK REALLY QUICK, MY THOUGHTS WONT AFFECT THE FINAL RESULT, ITS JUST TO HELP YOU, I LOVE TO HELP!

Zirrious

25 Nov, 2013, 5:29 am

Hmm... I guess this finally gives me a solid reason to completely put in maximum effort into my drawing. I have always ended up losing my patience on every piece I have worked on and as a result I have settled with just making semi-decent/mediocre pieces. Now I just hope I don't disappoint...

Atticfail

25 Nov, 2013, 6:47 am

dc21 is ma bd ;-;

JouigiRabbit

25 Nov, 2013, 7:43 am

Well, OK. I'll see how it goes...

Danbo4-0

25 Nov, 2013, 7:49 am

Oi, honestly, why would I bother, there are sooooooooo many great artists here on Colors3D, I wouldnt stand a chance XD But hell, I'll try anyway :3/ btw Some people CAN avoid the pic reference tag, but if you watch the playback you'll know/ Hey, I JUST made a DA account today my name is "PatDaBaker" on there

Mochhii

Sorry, for asking alot of questions...^^'' But, what if I just drew my OC? o3o

Akiko

25 Nov, 2013, 4:27 pm

Yaaaay, I just need to enter!! I will give my very very best, I promise! And if I don't win, I won't act like after Landos Contest.. that was really rude. I could never be rude to you..

Anyways, this is gonna be so awesome!! >w<

25 Nov, 2013, 6:42 pm

Umm.. I suppose I'll enter if I have the idea's and the time >u< but I'm having a few confidence issues at the moment so don't be too surprised if I fail to upload .-. also the time thing... I don't know, I'm worried that I won't be able to make it last that long... or if it'll even be good enough. I'll still try though ^-^ but I'd like to get to a certain point in #MBaGPA first...

southusa

25 Nov, 2013, 7:25 pm

I am in!

The Echo

25 Nov, 2013, 8:35 pm

i could try to enter, but 4 hour minimum...im a speed drawer, even my most complex best shading takes less than that...
*mumbles* ill never make 4 hours...

Kilgara

25 Nov, 2013, 11:10 pm

im going to try, but im thinking...

Koolaid

25 Nov, 2013, 11:18 pm

Totally going to try! I can do four hours... maybe. Just got to think of something of my OC...

Celestialstar8698

26 Nov, 2013, 2:03 am

Though alot of artists think this is a great idea, I don't exactly think this the best idea honestly, but i guess I can give it a go!
If you wonder why, its because its kinda obvious who's going to win on this by who already is always on TWB and everybody will think it's pretty unfair because they would really like to do this, but they wouldn't do it because they think they won't have a chance against all the other artists who don't even try. But its whatever floats your boat I guess,...:/

Mr.Doodles

26 Nov, 2013, 2:43 am

I just meant I'll push myself for this one. It sounds like a go big or go home kind of contest: the winners get glory and requests. . . the losers wasted 4 hours and go home. But are they empty handed or have they found a hidden potential? That's what I want. I want my hands to spin webs of color against the whimsical lights of the city scape shifting about, flickering, persisting and waining into daybreak as the sun sets the skyline ablaze in a brilliant display of color. I long to share worlds unseen, floating amidst the lullings and laments, the fanfares and durges, the symponic concertos and the humble flutes aloft, scattered and spiraling within me without end! All this is waiting and perhaps this is the key to unlock the doors or even yet a window to these worlds...
...
And perhaps I'll find my cutie mark ^u0

Mr.Doodles

26 Nov, 2013, 2:45 am

And if that's a TL:DR : I'm pumped!

O.D.D.

26 Nov, 2013, 5:54 pm

im a little confused on what the theme is....could someone explain plz
:3

McWhiteRose

27 Nov, 2013, 1:39 am

Ok,well 2 hours,about 18 ponies,and a background..I feel sad.....

Krazy Katt111

27 Nov, 2013, 2:08 am

There's a slight chance that I'll enter.

Yeah I could enter and EASILY clock over IO hours in my entry.
Buuuuut, I do have a nasty habit of starting something and completely losing desire to finish it.

MistaBeans!

27 Nov, 2013, 5:53 am

^Same here, KK. But either way, I am SOOO in! I'm gonna throw in some Nostolgia :) Actually, a lot. The kind that makes you wish you could experience it all again. At least for me, anyway. At I thought this would be a contest to do a Draw My Life with our OC : P

malarkey

27 Nov, 2013, 8:40 am

Wo
Wait- wha...
Did you just follow meeeee? ;-;
I woke up this morning (well- it was... xD) and that was what I was least expecting.
Ermehgerd
*Hypuhrvehntuhlatez*
Tyyyy- but my art isn't that good... I'm only 12. xD

malarkey

27 Nov, 2013, 9:47 pm

Heh, I don't blame you if you do. xD

Fredi

28 Nov, 2013, 3:34 am

Oh no, its ok. Where im going i wont have wifi. But thanks

Ventex

28 Nov, 2013, 9:21 pm

(I bet they wont check out our deviant art). WHY MUST YOU USE REVERSE PHYCOLOGY. I MUST LOOK!

8luh8luh8luh

28 Nov, 2013, 9:39 pm

:v im goin to enter
four hours tho...i dunno if i can meet that but i'll try

Tun Rae

28 Nov, 2013, 10:35 pm

I will do my utmost best work :D
My one fault so far is that I did not watch the playthrough before starting. Luna features promanently in my image, with my young OC in the centre. This is ok, no?
If it's not, then I'm still going to enter it, because I want it to be my best work anyway :D

Tun Rae

28 Nov, 2013, 10:37 pm

I also love the animation :D I tried to turn the volume up XD

Ambershadows

30 Nov, 2013, 9:34 pm

I will enter!! :D

Mr.Doodles

01 Dec, 2013, 8:17 pm

Hey, Yoshi Ringo, quick q: Would you rather the paintings be lined or lineless?

Mr.Doodles

01 Dec, 2013, 11:06 pm

hmm. . . In such a case I'll need to test a new line-art technique before I proceed :/ I'm still touching up the base sketch, though. I'm really taking my time with this one o_o Feels good though ^u^ Just so you know, the challenge in itself has me feeling pretty good ^u^ so thanks for this.

oldawkward

02 Dec, 2013, 1:34 am

If I Draw This On Paper Then Trace It On Here Is That Ok? Ill (Somehow, Idk) Send The Paper Pic To You So You See It Was Really Me

oldawkward

02 Dec, 2013, 2:28 am

Oh, Well Ok. Thank You ^^

ravenflight

03 Dec, 2013, 5:36 am

Wow! This is such an inspiring idea! You've really outdone yourself with this one! Well, I may enter, though 4 hours is lot of time for me to put in, especially with my lack of patience...However I think I will attempt to enter this competition. ;3 *Brohoof*

Trans_Princess

03 Dec, 2013, 11:34 pm

I'll try! I don't care if I lose I'm going to try fellow brony! :D *brohoof* /)

SeventhLayer

06 Dec, 2013, 4:05 pm

4 HOURS!!!??? Okay, ill try

thugisa17

08 Dec, 2013, 9:09 pm

I guess I could try......

Tun Rae

09 Dec, 2013, 6:31 pm

So far, so good. If I leave the picture as it is, it will pass as one of my best. But to truely outdo myself, I need to include the 3d aspect. Most of my other works are 3d, so I'm not going to let myself down :3

And because of all the effort I'm putting into this, I already, genuinely, consider myself a winner ^-^ Maybe not THE winner, but I poured my heart and talent into this, so I don't care if I'm nowhere nere placing ^_^

IsunaO2

10 Dec, 2013, 3:01 am

EWSpirit

EWSpirit

15 Dec, 2013, 4:01 am

MistressMuffins

15 Dec, 2013, 5:30 pm

First thing... Thank you for taking consideration on the due date. Second... I'd love to enter, though I may not be able to finish it.
It just really depends. ^^

What time do you have to upload your entry by?

Yoshi Ringo

20 Dec, 2013, 12:59 am

This is a message to all the artists that will enter my #MLPCML13 contest.
I ask that you all delete any WIPs, announcements, anything with the tag#MLPCML13, I'd love it if this tag was clean to make it easier for the viewers to see all the complete entries, if you want to keep your WIP or announcement news art, simply remove the tag #MLPCML13 from that drawing, only use it for your complete entry.
Remember, over 4 hours and post it on Dec 21. Thank you all for entering my first contest and I wish you all the best.

-Yoshi Ringo
