Thank you! It's so heartwarming to see it being appreciated :D
Personally I was certain
Frozen Sacrifice would make it. It would probably fit so nicely with banescale ice reps!
Frozen in Time too, particularly when considering banescale's lore.
That said, there were many awesome entries, so I imagine picking the winners must have been hard ^-^;

[b]Primal Dustlight[/b] by @ProtonBonfire. I adore intricate accents like these... such a mesmerizing swirl of frost, mist, and snow dappling this Gaoler. My favorite part is that it doesn't use white or the usual light blue palette - this snowsquall was painted in faded pearl pinks and blues that shift seamlessly between each other, and the result stands out gorgeously both on a dragon and on the submissions.

[b]Meltwater Matriarch[/b] by @SilverLately. Another fresh take on an often samey contest, this Skydancer is bedecked in chips of glacial (or mineral-heavy) ice. The bejeweled collar and strings of décor complete the look and turn the natural adornments into regalia - It's still Ice in concept, but it's versatile enough where this accent could be used on essentially any aesthetic.

[b]Imprisoned Breath[/b] by @Kariam. Such a dynamic direction to run with on the 'icy Banescale' we saw so much of, this fierce lady straddles the line between petrified sacrifice and present-day horror. There's so much detail to look at here - the frost escaping the ribcage, the cracks on one horn, the rings on each spine and claw. And the color palette here is both adventurous and beautiful. Kariam's other entry won (Phantom Scientist), but I still think this skin deserves a mention for how [I]cool[/I] it is to look at. (The pun wasn't intended, but I'll happily take it.)

[b]Gala Glamor[/b] by @TastyPastry. There were a [I]lot[/I] of good Skydancer entries this fest, it seems. The detail here is incredible - the closer you look at this accent, the more you see. The feathers have branches, the silks have folds, the lace on the claws has a second, finer layer nestled in the main pattern, and the dithering on the head crest is beautiful. And I love how the forehead gem is given a cold, icy glow. A supremely skilled first entry from an artist I'd love to see more from!

awwww thank you!!!!
I like mixed colors too haha when I drew this I searched past CG fest skins and found purple colors are available too!
these two inspired me lol
Unfortunately this is a skin and not an small accent, due to too much white translucent blur and I can't delete it easily, it will become very ugly without it, so print it becomes difficult...and the elements are a bit monotonous, just crystals and wind, I'm trying to draw a more complex skin with different elements next time
anyway, thank you so much for you comment! And this thread is a great idea, I still think there are too many amazing entries in this contest XD

Honestly I love the runner ups much more. They are so good and intricate! It's a shame they were just runner ups and didn't actually win :(
Primal Dustlight by ProtonBonfire is a personal fave <3

@
Laluzi I really appreciate you starting up another of these threads. I was able to buy two skin/accents I absolutely adore last fest (one's on my progen), and I've put some feelers out for more this time around.
I always forget to go through the entry post.

Thanks for saying so! It was a wonderful idea when someone first brought it up. I just wish I had better skills at alliteration. Couldn't think of anything with a C or a G.
That's actually a good idea - I should link to the contest thread in these to make it easier for people to check out the entrants themselves (and hopefully post some to the spotlight.)
Laso is looking incredible. <3 That was one of my absolute favorites.

Oh my gosh, thank you for mentioning and reviewing my skin! I appreciate it so much
And to be honest, out of my entries I really hoped Imprisoned breath to win (Although I decided to print it anyways)
Still a bit sad that they chose Phantom scientist, I think it was a little plain

Thank you for your kind words @
Laluzi. I'm planning on printing it myself since I'm still quite proud of it. Just gotta tidy it up and trim it into accent range.

I’ll add one myself!

This one was admittedly a little limited, but I hope it gets submitted if the admins ever run another Coli skin contest because it’s a great concept
