Art Contest - WINNERS POSTED!

Basically, I've looked at the art threads already and found a few people to commission (if I've asked you, you can include the piece I commissioned in this contest) but they pieces seem to be at a stand still. Seeing as I've never been an incredibly patient person, I though I'd open it up to anyone and everyone.

Details:
I would like a piece of art (any kind - hand drawn, computer made, photo manipulation, I don't care) made specifically for one horse, Brooke.

Brooke:
She was my filly who died way before her time (at 17 months of age - the ironic thing? She shared a pasture with 2 horses in their early 30s) She was a Spotted Saddle/Quarter Horse cross (3/4 Spotted Saddle, 1/4 Quarter Horse) and quite a unique color (in my opinion) as you will see in the pictures. I will provide you with pictures below and you may use any of them as references for drawing/manips.

Pictures/References:

There are only about 5 or so different pictures on there at the moment (I don't have much more of her) but if I get a chance I'll try to find some and scan them into my computer.

Almost forgot the link to the horse I created on the game to match her Laughing

Requirements:
- Must have her name "Brooke" as the only text
- I must have at least 3 entries before I can give out prizes, as there will be a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prize.

Prizes:
1st - 50 mil
2nd - 15 mil
3rd - 5 mil
I will also give out a participation prize of 1 mil. I mean hello! You get one mil just for slapping something together and entering!! Laughing

Wow, Raine.
She sure is gorgeous.
Pity she had to go so much before she was ready...

You asked us to do a drawing. I did the line art and sent it to Suzy, but she seems to have disappeared.

Yes, EDZ it was your thread and another that I asked ... mash maybe ... I have it around here somewhere in my bookmarks Laughing

Like I said, once that piece is completed you can use it in the contest ... if Suzy doesn't ever reply, you can always just enter the line art and I'll consider it.

I might enter. I'll most likely do a photo manip, as I'm suck[ish] at other types of art. And do you have any preferences for the background? And BTW, is it alright if instead of placing Brooke in another pic, would it be possible if I could just like make designs and stuff like that in the back, like drawing a background? If not, that's ok, but it's just easier for me to do it that way. =P

Do whatever you like, but I would prefer her represented in some way (picture, design, drawn, whatever xD)

I'm terribly sorry for your loss. That's horrible, like; really horrible. I'd, like; die if anything happened to the horse I lease. xP

I'm definately entering, though, I just got half-finished on a drawing of her. Just a heads-up.
