Contests – November 2020

Open for the latest contests!

hey guys! Welcome back to contests with Rainie, November 2020 edition!

Sorry I’m a week late 😛

Anyways, there were so many good entries for all of the contests this month!! Y’all do not make it easy to only select three, because they’re all so good 😭

Also a note for future reference – it’s okay if it’s past the deadline and you still wanna submit. There’s not a 100% chance that it’ll be counted but there’s at least a 90% chance it’ll be counted because I often forget about my own deadline 😛 Just a heads up, since I love all of the submissions so muchh I don’t mind if they’re late or anything 😀

Poetry Contest Winners!

For the prompt: Hunting, the three big winners are…

in 3rd place: Cherrytuft!

“Watching, watching… stalking, stalking…
Waiting, waiting… plotting, plotting…
The juicy mouse scurries under a bush, 
Right before I can wrap my claws around it. 

Ha! It thinks it can escape from me!
It quickly comes out from the other end of the shrubbery,
I leap over the thicket, and my paws kiss the soft ground.
The mouse got away.

I growl, and look into the distance, where the warriors are,
Soon they’ll be gone. I can destroy it all.
My next piece of prey.

Then I think of him. An image of the brown muscular tom floats in my mind,
Viciously clawing a young kit. 
Oh yes, he’ll be gone soon, too.
I’ll make sure of it.
They’re all just prey to me…

Yay! Your prize is a drawing from Fernkit!

in 2nd place: Shatteredmask!

“Quickly, quietly, silently stalking
Through the woods and trees you’ll be walking.
Unsuspecting, innocent, unaware,
Oblivious to the fact I am hiding right there.

You can run, or you can stay,
Either way it’s all the same.
So go on and take your pick,
It’ll all be over quick.

Tick tock, tick tock,
Running out of time.
Are you scared?
Don’t be!
It’ll all be fine.

Once I’m through,
I promise you,
It will be peaceful.”

Congrats! Your prize is a drawing from Sandpaw (Sandy), and a custom-made secret page! Please provide a name, image, and description for your secret page so I can make it for you!

and in 1st place…

Smoke That Fills The Air!

“Silent steps
Wordless shivers
All alone
Trembles, quivers

The grass will rustle
The wind will howl
The breeze will whisper
But the hunter prowls

Two yellow eyes
Searching, lost
the mouse scampers
Through the light autumn frost

Pale blue skies
Settle down to sleep
The hunter despairs
Until, a sweep!

Rustling and bustling
the mouse flounces
But stealthy and silent
The hunter,…POUNCES!”

The rhyming was marvellous and the rhythm made it so fun to read! Congratulations! Your prize is a drawing from Falling Feather (Driftingpaw), a custom-made secret page (same as above, please provide a name, image, and description for me to make for you), and control over LiveChat’s colours (for a week)! Please also include what colours you want for LiveChat in a comment 😀

And lastly, an honourable mention goes to Pinestripe!

Hide in the dense leaves, what do you hear?
Unsuspecting, a small gray mouse scurries near.
Not making a sound, get into a crouch.
Try to get close as you can to the mouse.
Instincts within you will be your guide.
No sudden movements or else it will hide.
Go for it bravely as fast as you can. With luck you will now bring back food for your Clan.”

I thought the “HUNTING” bit was really creative! I didn’t have a prize planned, but would you like some art? I can arrange for it if you would 😀

Alrighty, let’s get on with the gorgeous:

Art Contest Winners!

For the prompt: Alive cat/s hanging out with StarClan ghost buddy/ies, the winners are….

It looks like there was so much effort put into this, there are so many pretty cats and I absolutely adore the trees as well! Congratulations! You get a drawing from Shiningpaw/pool!

The vibes from this are absolutely immaculate, not to mention the amazing anatomy! Your prize is a drawing from Moonbreeze, a custom-made secret page (same as above, please provide a name, image, and description)!
