The winners of my Peachie Mascot Contest have been decided!
I simply cannot express just how insanely difficult this contest was to judge, but I eventually came to a finalised set of winners.
Thank you very much for your patience!
So without further ado-!
PRIZE: Dress-Up doll playset game 
This picture is just so perfectly and adorably composed!
My mascot was given such a great personality here as the artist catches her in the act of eating a snack! My favourite part about this picture is how she was given her own peach-themed kingdom, complete with peach trees and her own absolutely ADORABLE peach castle! (It even has a little leaf-shaped flag! ;o;
) The rainbow arching over in the distance, bringing the princess into the focal point, is the cherry on top of this gorgeous piece.

chikorita85 wins 1st place for creating such a well thought-out piece which is detailed, creative and ultimately Peachie!
PRIZE: Simple dress-up game 
This is a very elegant and dreamy artwork of my character. I fell in love with it straight away! I thought the idea of using peach blossoms was very beautiful. It also fitted the mascot's frilly outfit and generally girly identity very well! While the mascot herself is drawn quite plainly, the extremely detailed peach blossoms surrounding her help bring the princess into the spotlight.

Bon-Bon-Bunny's charming and blissful portrayal of my character deserves 2nd place and a big applause!
PRIZE: Detailed vector picture 
I was very impressed by this super creative artwork! It was such a super nice surprise to see fanart of my character made in a less conventional way! The different peachy-coloured textures and objects used to make this piece all suit my character very well, and everything has been laid out wonderfully. I particularly like the work on the peach and the pink letter blocks!

PixieParrot clearly put a lot of thought into the design of this; carefully selecting what materials to use and layering things just-so. A very well-deserved 3rd place!
Congrats to these contestants for winning the biggest prizes!

RUNNERS UP All 3 runners-up recieve one simple chibi each as a prize!
RUNNER UP # 1

Tamabit made this absolutely adorable artwork of my mascot by giving her a whole new outfit! I really love this outfit design because it's different to her original design but still falls into that "peachy and princessy" theme! She also included the little peach buttons on the shoes. Aside from her outfit, I also really like her pose and the GIANT peach she is sitting on, plus the picture is all brought together nicely in a very pretty pink background with lace.
RUNNER UP # 2
Siobhan (*
artigirl's little sister) submitted this totally adorable paper doll set which features my mascot and a set of super cute and unique outfits. I love how Siobhann designed the outfits as if for a beauty pageant, and the Fluttershy dress adds a personal touch for me as I can see the artist had my interests in mind when she designed everything!
RUNNER UP # 3

HeadyMcDodd clearly put a lot of painstaking effort into creating this wonderfully crafted, baseless pixel doll. When I zoomed in I could truly appreciate how many individual pixels she had carefully placed to shade her dress and lucious-looking hair. I also think the circular background gives the doll a professional touch and it brings the whole piece together.

HONORABLE MENTIONS While these entries don't recieve a prize, they came close to and so they deserve some of the spotlight nevertheless!

Lolly-pop-girl732 created a truly lovely, happy and colourful piece here by bringing my mascot into the Candyland board game!
~
Nendroiid's entry definately stood out from the crowd with her dark and rather sombre portrayal of my mascot in a gorgeously realistic piece!
~
grovyle-n-wolfluvr drew my mascot skipping down such a happy road with one of her floating peach friends and Nurse Kitty-chan(!)
When I saw this entry, the Mario Kart Rainbow Road tune came into my head!
~
MissTaylorrr's one was a real delight to look at!
A really sweet pixel drawing with a perfectly pretty pudding pillow!
I loved how precisely the artwork was pixelled.
