Posted January 8 My last cookie for the event, made for Long_Before_Sunrise. Spoiler I've only made 8 cookies during the event, since I didn't participate each day and I was slow at making each one, so I am curious as to how much stuff (combined sent + received) did the most active users managed to get? Also thanks to everyone for posting and gifting in the thread - that made the event more fun than it would be otherwise Share this post Link to post
Posted January 8 Definitely wouldn't call myself the most active user, but I did send 114 cookies (including 85 duplicate gentlemint cookies) and recieved 93 cookies back. Seems that >80% of the cookies I sent were also Mint themed so if we ever have this event again, i'll be sure to be more diverse next time. Thank you all so much for an amazing event! I had a blast gifting and recieving cookies with you all. See you all next year! Share this post Link to post
Posted January 8 I sent only 75 cookies, and I received 50 cookies, if I counted correctly. I shall make screenshots of all of them later Share this post Link to post
Posted January 8 I counted 202 sent cookies. I duplicated one by accident and one to see if I could, so that's exactly 200 cookies I drew. (I didn't even plan that, but I'm happy about the round number!) Not 200 individual designs, though - I made 6 very similar pumpkin trees, and lots of teddy bears that are basically the same design in different colors. And I received 124 cookies! Thank you everybody who sent me one (or more)! Share this post Link to post
Posted January 8 Aryena and Billie mini-madness: I managed to multiply the last 2 and it was the best part of the event and the moment I actually enjoyed it, it felt so rewarding to be able to share my work around! after no working duplication method was left, I tried to produce those simple ones but got bored very quickly: <-the few recipients got very confused I bet:v (unless they Googled 😧 ) This WIP anti-racist project turns 15 this year!

Posted January 8 I'm sad that this event is over I don't usualy draw much, but the challange of these large brushes somehow motivated me I sent a total of 191 cookies, 97 of them individually drawn, and recieved 158 cookies. I did not expect so many and so amazing cookies at the beginning of the event, thatks to all of you for all the fun I had Share this post Link to post
Posted January 8 I counted 139 sent cookies (82 individually drawn, even though some of these are similar). I'ts interesting to see how they started off simple and kept getting more intricate. The big brushes made it more challenging and I think this added to the fun for me 😅 And received 117. Thanks to all of you who sent me cookies or just posted their cookies here for us to see! Τhis event was a lot of fun and I will miss it, hope cookie decorating will be back next year! 😊 Share this post Link to post

Posted January 8 (edited) My final tally: I sent 312 cookies; 3 styles I mass produced with the early glitch. 108 unique 27 sickly green dragon 49 gold shimmerscales 128 glystere wyrms - this cookie symbolized the event for me Of the unique ones I sent, 41 were full cookie attempts at featuring a single DC sprite, 7 were gift boxes with a DC hatchling peeking out, and 9 were gift boxes with a DC hatchling poking out from under the lid. I received 180 unique cookies Some examples of my cookies sent Spoiler You can really see the progression of detail in my dragon sprites over the course of the event. The final sprite, the white dragon, went to TJ09, intended as a thank you for this awesome event. Edited January 8 by Awdz Bodkins Share this post Link to post

Well, from the moment I discovered this thread I spent almost all day every day decorating cookies, so I wasn't exactly fast, I jest kept drawing the whole time 😅 Besides, except the more complex ones I had some more easily reproduced designs when I wanted something fast 2 minutes ago, Ruby Eyes said: Well, my simple ones were mostly sent out to random strangers for daily candy, I admit At least until Tetris became available. Yes, same 😁 Share this post Link to post

Posted January 8 168-ish Cookies I sent: 11 Not Amused Obidar 6 Strawhat Flag 16-19 of a dog/cat head 5 Chopper Head 11 Christmas Tree 10-16 Dancing Frog I got like 68 cookies in return. Example of my Cookie: Spoiler I'm not sure about getting better but I did get more fancy the longer I did the cookies, I went from doing dragon wing cookies to do dragon heads lol. (Awwwww, man, I forgot to send my guardian cookie I made. ) Share this post Link to post
Posted January 8 My final cookie statistics: Sent: 164 (95 drawn, 91 unique designs) Most requested design: asoxeno with decorated tree Received: 70 Spoiler of most (not all) my cookies: Overall, a fun event! All the dragon wings I did I used the pattern of an on-site kind of dragon, though some I did a better job on than others. The easiest cookies I made were the turpentine wing and the sudowoodos. The hardest I did was probably the eeveelution star. Share this post Link to post

Posted January 8 my numbers were almost even: 78 cookies sent, 72 received. i don't know that i improved as the event went on, but i feel like i got more adventurous about what i was trying. and a full disclaimer that i am not an artist at all, and remain in awe of what everyone created! anyhow, this is most of what i did (chronological within categories). nighttime seascapes with sealife: Spoiler nighttime seascapes (no sealife): Spoiler orcas! this is the one category where i do think i got better by the end: Spoiler i think of these as stylized/abstract starfish :3 : Spoiler a big thanks again to @Moriaty for starting this thread and to everyone who kept it going by offering cookies, support, or both. ❤️❤️❤️ Share this post Link to post
