I’m looking for drawings, paintings, videos, music… any number of nice pieces of art for our Wintersday 2016 Community Showcase Live. If you’ve created something, please do share.

If you are working on something now, no worries. I choose from previous year’s offerings, so share and we’ll consider it for the 2017 show!

Thanks!

A year ago shortly before Wintersday.

Ah yes, I remember now. I had a team member review and she noted that the video includes copyright properties (music) so while we can allow it on the forums, I cannot feature it on the show.

Was playing around with my guild in WvW keep and ported a bunch of golems into a tree with mesmer. I was pretty sure the count was 13 but not certain.

Gaile: As you know, I wrote this last Wintersday. Though it is not necessarily Artwork, It’s still Wintersday Art

We finally finished our Wintersday Project, thanks to some hard work, lots of gold, and ingenuity on my part. It was very difficult figuring out how to complete a large project like this, around the Decoration Zone Cap. It prevented us from adding some very amazing decorations but this is the final product after around 1100G, not including the Globe of Whispers. This was an idea I came up with as soon as I saw the new decorations that came out. It took me a long time to find a suitable location to build the castle but luckily, this project taught me many new placing tricks. So what do you guys think lol?

Edit: HAPPY NEW YEARS! from [RUBS] Our guild worked extremely hard on making this project possible. Last 2 images 2016, New Years Eve get together. ty all for coming, and helping make this possible, it was a lot of fun.

I have to add this recent news, as it has to do with the post I made for our members, and contributors to this art project. I can say that we are profoundly disappointment in the lack of response.

We put a lot of hard work into this. Not even a reply. I’m not asking for praise, but it would have been nice to hear a response. Many people who donated funds to make this possible are expecting news of some kind, and I’m held responsible for our guild. People put their faith in the idea and contributed selflessly towards it and without any kind of response is heart breaking to some members. Thanks anet.

Hello Rub,

I’m so sorry that you did not receive a response to your post. However, it’s only fair to point out that you posted this during the time we were heading out of the office on holiday break and weeks after selections were made for the Wintersday show. You see, I had to curate art very early December in order to accommodate an early recording session to work around the holidays. The show actually aired a week before your posted, so you may already be aware of these facts.

Again, I’m sorry that you did not receive a personal response to your post, but it’s simply not humanly possible for me to respond to every post on the forums and after the Wintersday are was selected, it didn’t occur to me to go back and revisit an older thread. Please understand that there is no lack of interest or lack of appreciation for the project you undertook. It’s marvelous! And it looks like it was a ton of fun to put together!

I just want to say thank you Gaile, & apologize for the misunderstanding. This was the first time for me, hearing about this type of gw2 event, and there was no submission deadline listed so I assumed it was at the end of Wintersday which is my fault. Next year our guild will be ready, with an even bigger surprise than this years castle. It will be amazing. The project is so huge, we are taking steps even now, a year ahead of time to prepare for it. I’m extremely excited lol, and you guys will be blown away. :P
