Christmas Contest - VOTING!!!

And now it has come down to this - the votes.

As I stated before, the voting process will take place here on the blog. To be more specific, it'll be taking place in the comments of this blog post. Voters will simply comment on a picture that they see here. The pictures will be numbered 1 through 4. Leave a comment with the number you wish to vote for. Voting will be open until Wednesday, January 5th. Plenty of time for people to rally votes for their own pieces. Contestants are not allowed to vote themselves!

The Grand Prize for the Christmas Contest will be a $25 Gift Card to Hobby Lobby, which will be presented to the winner shortly after the voting period ends.

Submission #1




Submission #2

Voting is now officially open!!!
Good luck to everyone who has entered the contest, and happy holidays to everyone out there! I hope you all enjoy them! Stay safe everyone!


This last image is not a part of the contest, please do not cast any votes for it.

Cameron sent me this one and wanted me to throw it up here on the blog. Because it's also holiday themed, I wanted to share it up here with the rest of the holiday themed submissions.

Christmas Contest - CLOSED!

Sorry for the late update today everyone, had a lot of things going on here on my end. The Christmas Contest for 2010 has officially come to a close. I have received all of the submissions for the contest and will be putting them up in the next post. For now, I wanted to thank everyone who participated in the contest, and those who wanted to but were unable to.

For those who belong to both groups, thanks for making this contest possible!

This is the end of the first, but definitely not the last contest. Already, idea's are floating around for more contests in the future. More details on those will be posted here and on my DA in the future. Thanks to everyone who has watched the blog here through Blogger, and those who have liked Studio Fizzy on Facebook.

I'd especially like to thank all of the members of the group, and all of the people who have supported us all and motivated us all over this past year. Thanks to everyone, and happy holidays all!

Hello again everyone! Hope everyone is enjoying their holidays!

We've got another watcher, which is always awesome, and I just received the first submission for the contest in my inbox!

I'll be making another update tomorrow night detailing how the judging is going to work, how long it's going to run, and the total amount of the grand prize! So be sure that you follow us here on the Fizzy blog/bookmark the page so that you are up to date on everything!

Christmas Contest - Sound Off!

First and foremost - I see we have four new watchers! That is awesome! Thanks to all of the new watchers. It's definitely encouraging to see!

Secondly - Christmas time is coming up fast! I hope everyone is kicking major ass with their submissions for the contest!

And, on that note, the real reason I'm making this post is out of sheer curiosity. I haven't gotten any emails from anyone nor have I gotten any notes on deviant art, but I am curious as to how many of you have seen this and are working on things for the contest? How many people have you told? How many people eat candy canes like drug addicts?

Make some noise, sound off in the comments, and let me know if you're going to be submitting anything come December 22nd!

Announcing the Fizzy Christmas Contest 2010!!!



Studio Fizzy is currently in the middle of huge pans to grow and push ourselves to the next level, be we're not too busy to stop and remember what time of year it is! It's the holiday season that people all over look forward to every year. No matter what you celebrate, or don't, December is an awesome month for parties, gifts, and what have you. Don't worry, Fizzy's got your back here.

We'll be celebrating this holiday season by way of a fun little Holiday Art Contest. This is the very same contest that I just announced on my Deviant Art page ( http://bwebb89.deviantart.com/ ). The rules for the contest are as follows:

1. You are free to use any media you wish. Digital, traditional, etc.

2. The theme of all submissions should be something pertaining to this holiday season. Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, New Years, etc.

3. Feel free to use Deviant Art, Facebook, or any other site to raise awareness for the contest, support, or what have you.

4. The contest will run from now until December 22, 2010. All entries must be submitted to me by midnight, December 22nd, EST, so that I can prepare things for judging. Entries may be submitted here, or sent to my email directly. Please send all entries in the form of .jpg,.jpeg, or .png. If you are unable to save them as such, email them to me in any format and I will convert them for you.

5. Judging will not be done by myself or any other members of Fizzy, but by an open, public vote that will be held on the Studio Fizzy blog ( www.studiofizzy.blogspot.com ). Each piece will be numbered and showcased there, and votes will be counted by comments made there. Further information on the judging will be provided as the contest ends.


The first place winner will receive a Hobby Lobby Gift Card, currently of an unspecified amount. Once we come to a final decision on the exact amount, I'll be posting an update here and on Deviant Art. If you primarily check your Facebook, don't worry, Fizzy has you covered. Though I don't use mine, Cameron will be heading up things on that end. No matter where you go for information, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to send me an email. You can reach me at BrianWebb1989@gmail.com.

Good Luck to everyone who enters, and happy holidays!
