Description I'm too late for Christmas, so these are winter draw to adoptables >w<

~~~~~
Not sure when I'll end this, but for now I'll cap it at a month
Ending it whenever winter ends <3
Ends: March 20 Cali time
~~~~~

This is a draw to adopt, however to those who do not know what it is:
You DO NOT WIN the adopt just by drawing them, this is a contest basically. You draw the adopt and go up against other people who draw one or two of the ponies above, in order to win one of them.

Rules:
 The usual: Do not steal these designs
 Post your entries to dA (or sta.sh if you HAVE to), I prefer the entries posted so I can favorite them
 Please reply your entries to the right "Put entries here" comment
All styles are ok! I don't mind if you draw them as chibis or painting
         Please don't do anything physical like clay figures or plushies, I don't want you to waste your time like that and lose  I do not want people to use bases, but you can use your own bases, but I like seeing them in your own style of drawing
All the colors and design details are above, you do not need to ask me for seperate files to them. I won't give them
 You can make more than one entry, but only ONE can win
You can enter for both "Caroling" and "Hot Chocolate", but you will only win ONE
         Since you can only win one, please do not draw the two characters in one entry
 The winner can use the people-who-entered's art, BUT please ask if it's ok first because they own the art, NOT you. Personally I can't even download anyone's entries, so please don't expect me to do so either
 Please no complaining when its over, I'm voting as fairly as I possibly can. I hate picking, so I'm going to have like 10 other people helping me vote anyway

~~~~~
What will I be looking for while voting (kind of in order)
1) Originality
Of course, I prefer an original idea over something generic, like if you draw a standard pose over a more unique one I'll prefer that, but don't think you have to, this is only one factor in voting
    - Please note that people will likely draw "Caroling" outside caroling to other ponies, so don't worry if other people do that too, but if their is any conflict from it I'll do my best to end it because it's LITERALLY like the most common idea anyone will get looking at her theme

2) Quality
You guys know the phrase "quality over quantity", I like seeing effort in one image than multiple "crappier" ones, but you can draw more than one, but be wary of the rule above "You can make more than one entry, but only ONE can win" tho I know where people come from when they draw so many entries, I literally don't mind but I wanna make it fair to the people who can only make one entry because time crunches

3) Accuracy
I don't mind when people redesign my adopts, sometimes I prefer it if you adopted any of my old adopts xD But for the sake of a DTA I prefer if you stay accurate to the designs, and redesign them a little afterward. Although, I'm not going to get anal about it if you draw the manes shorter or longer, or draw a different amount of freckles on them. Just keep the markings the same and colors in your entries and change them later if you want. (But it's a rule always that don't make them unrecognizable)
    - Also I would love to see them in their outfits! But don't worry if you can't do them, but I would also love them to keep their outfits if you win, or just have them as winter outfits for them because this is a winter themed DTA

4) Personality
I don't have set personalities for these adopts. But I prefer that your entry SHOWS personality that you want for them. I don't mind what personality- either rude or kind, doesn't bother me -but I would like to see it in your entry if possible? And when I say "show" and "see" I don't want to read a story in the description of your entry, I wanna see it conveyed in your entry. Again this isn't a requirement, just a factor in my voting. This is not very important as the other factors.

5) Progress
When I say progress, I mean I prefer to see you have it colored over lineart if you know what I mean? But this is the LEAST important factor. This will be a last resort requirement or not one at all. But I just want it here so people know I would like to see them draw a whole picture than a sketch. But really, if everyone does sketches and you do a colored picture, then who do you think has a better chance?

In the end though, I will have multiple judges and we will do our best, but these are just factors to think about, but don't freak out over trying to cover all of them

If we enter, would it be okay to do a play on their themes? Like, perhaps Hot Chocolate having a thing for spices or Caroling being in a choir rather than a single singer? Would we be able to name them something other than their theme while staying close to it? Carol Tenor, Chocolate Chili, Spiced Cocoa, Winter Hymnal, Silver Bell, etc?
