    Art wasn't working out, Writing would take too long, and opening an Ultra Wormhole to summon an Ultra Beast to fight seems a bit too dangerous. So you get this:

    I will have you know it is exeedingly hard to play woodwind instruments with only two finger on each hand. (And I totaly didn't mess up the volume or timing at parts...)

    Oh, and just to avoid confusion, I didn't play the backing. Just the Ocarina part. (Not that anyone would think I'm that amazing though :P)

    Since I haven't had a lot of time as of late for extra drawings, I threw something together that's kinda simple. I did try skipping lines and working directly from sketchings for once, just for this, to see how it goes. And for what's it worth, I'd say it turned decent enough.
    I call it the don... buuuuut I had so many things I wanted to add: a chair, a suit, a paintingframe, bodyguards, blackjack, robots, the pillars of eternity! Our lord and savior RNGesus!! Everything!!!
    But yea none of that ey, so here's a watered down version. Enjoy

    Playing an instrument itself can be a real talent. Not only that, but it's to a song most of us as Pokemon fans know. I totally ADORE such cheerful music. Can bring a tear to my eye with happiness! Music can be powerful if played right. It can really touch our hearts. Woodwind instruments can be hard to play. A smaller one such as an ocarina in the same. Some players can be talented more so in just one area while others spread their talents through each different instrument class.

    As far as your submission goes. I really enjoyed it! It may not the whole "professional" type thing we would hear at concerts or in game, but with limited practice time there's only so much that can be done. Still touches my heart to hear such beautiful music! So thank you for such an incredible performance! It doesn't matter if you didn't play the backing either. The leading role was what YOU played. It was really great if you ask me. Keep working to better this and I'm sure you can create a masterpiece yourself one day!

    Artwork can go miles! You never know how one piece will differ from the others. You can get 10 artist together and give them an image to work with and each one of them have a different and unique idea. Each one looking totally different in some aspect. Some can just be THAT creative and it's so amazing! They can look cool, dark, creepy, and super cute!❤

    This take on Togepi is really interesting. It makes me feel like he's some boss as you said. Like a Don behind some mafia. Looks like it in the expression as well. Can totally be cool, calm, or could lose it at any minute. I don't wanna give it any reason to use Metronome on me, haha!

    Like Shruikan, time can be a killing factor. We plan and want to do so many things, yet we end up forgetting or having to rush things as we run out of time. Don't know why, but it just reminds me of this song.



    Either way I really enjoyed seeing this piece of art! It does leave me wondering how it was originally planned to look. Like with the chair, painting frame, the bodygaurds (and who they were planned to be), and these pillars! The suit would've been a true unique feature to this as well! To see a Togepi in a suit posing as a Don? ADORABLE! Don't let that deter you though. I really did enjoy this piece. So thank you for sharing this with us!

    Hey, we weren't "officially" closed yet. So submissions were totally still acceptable! It wasn't the big turnout we were hoping for, but we can't always expect a big turnout here. Anyway, onto the discussion!

    Photography is very special. You can travel and always have some form of way to create a beautiful picture should the opportunity arise. You never know how or when it might come up either. These days it's much easier than it was in the past. Now, well, pretty much every one of us have a phone with us and can take those snapshots at any given moment. Unless you have a special camera for that extra special quality!

    Each one of these. The first one with someone blowing what looks like snow into the camera. The field of view for the images being very well taken into account. These each have a special watermarking so no one can just find these and up and claim or take them without sharing that big logo. It's very nice! The next being a special drink on a table. Looks like someone just took a sip from it as it's still sliding down into the cup.

    Never be afraid to share some images! As long as they aren't super personal or something offensive. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! Pictures taken can be art in a true delicate form. Some more personal to others than another. I ADORED these and would love to see more if ever given the chance! So thank you for sharing these with us!

    Well I wanted to participate, really did, but when the deadline closes the weekend after your finals, there's really just not enough time to whip something together in time. Oh well. Great submissions from everyone who did get to participate. They're all amazing.

    You people rock. I like what I see for submissions. :3

    I just got too busy and stumped to jump in on this thing. That and every time I tried to think of what to do, my mind went blank. So kudos to you all for doing what I couldn't do.
