We are really impressed by all the entries we received for the Design a Halloween Pet Contest! With so many great entries it was very hard to pick our favorites, but we still managed to decide on our top 10 list. Congratulations to those who made the short list and thank you so much to everyone who participated!
Now we want to know which of the 10 you like the best and why. Your judges will take your comments into consideration to make their final decisions. Stay tuned as the winner will be announced on July 15.
Congrats to all the finalists! All their entries are amazing!
Pumpkin owl! It looks like a piece of pumpkin pie XD
Cool! Congrats to the 10 finalists! I really like the pumpkin owl and the scarecrow owl! I also think the gargoyle bat is pretty cool too, (plus it’s a bat and I really love Webkinz bats). Some of the other ones look a little too….creepy…for me though. I mean, it’s not like they scare me or anything, it’s just that, I don’t really celebrate all the creepy Halloween stuff. Of course, they’re still very well done, and for a Halloween pet, I think they’re all good! :)
Hm.. Well, I like the Gargowl, but I don’t think it even used the template, which bothers me.
Skeleton Rat, Goblin Cat, and Scarecrow Owl are my favorites.
Congratulations to all of the finalists! It must have been hard to narrow the entries down to 10…there were so many wonderful ideas. Thank You Ganz for taking our opinions into consideration. I think that the Pumpkin owl represents Halloween the best and I am a big fan of the color orange, however, an Owl has been used for Halloween before. The Zombie cat is great but reminds me a lot of the Zombie dog which was also a Halloween pet in the past. The rat and the snake are great and haven’t been used as pets for Halloween. They would probably appeal more to boys than some of the others (which might be a good thing as boys may be underrepresented in Webkinz.) I envision the skeleton rat with glow in the dark fur, can you do it Ganz? I can see a beautiful silvery “webbing” being utilized on the Spider Web Cat and cool green scrolls on that Gargoyle bat which would contrast beautifully with the grey colors. The coloring on the others just don’t represent Halloween to me as much. So the Skeletal Rat would be my top choice for Halloween.
Also I want to add: I was thrilled to see that my niece entered this contest but sorry to see that she was not chosen as a finalist. I’m so proud of you Quacky! Keep on trying! You are a great artist!
All the designs are fabulous!!!! My faves are the skeleton rat and the mummy snake, ok and the spider cat. Excellent job by everyone:)
I like the gargowl.
Congrats!
Thanks RainbowDash20PercentCoole! :D
The pumpkin owl & the scarecrow owl really the only ones that stick out as child oriented/friendly, which is something expected of a children’s site (no matter how many adults play.) The scarecrow owl would also go great with the sunflower lion you have in the estore and would go extra great with the tin puppy we saw on April fools’ day. The gargowl is very creative & has sweet eyes.
