Contest: Doll the Character - Jack & Arvana

Deadline: November 16, 2004
Awards: December 6, 2004
Prompt: make a doll of my characters Jack, Arvana, or both

Thanks to everyone who helped make this contest a success, particularly the participants but also everyone who voted. I absolutely adore seeing dolls of my characters.

I used my judging system, as usual, with a little help from outside sources. The special category for this contest ended up being "Most Like Arvana," because I didn't get enough votes for best doll of each character, and there wasn't a Jack doll that stood out as the most like him. (There were, in fact, two Arvana dolls that qualified, but who's counting?)

Congratulations! I will probably adopt more than one of these into my character gallery, though I'm going to give myself some distance before choosing.

Please remember to credit me when displaying your creations. The characters do belong to me, and I'd hate for anyone to think you used them without permission.

If possible, please link back to Ice Shadow Dolls when displaying your award.
(I hate it when I can't find contest sites from awards pages!)

	When Jack looks that serious, you know something is up! My favorite part of Helyn's entry is his hair... exactly the perfect length. For first place, Helyn can make a request. (Just send me a message describing what you want.)
	If I could actually picture Arvana in that great dress, Ashley's entry would have been Most Like Arvana. As it is, I really love the design... the browns together, and the way her hair and skirt twirl out.
	The outfit is exactly the sort of thing I can picture Arvana wearing. And the serene look is just right.
	If you were dating Jack, you'd have long since perfected your miffed expression, too.
	I doubt Arvana looked that young when she was that young, but she is awfully darn cute!
