Top 5 Picks

IT’S CHRISTMAS! by BlazingAngel123

BlazingAngel123 - It's Christmas!

This hilarious redraw brings some humor to the holiday season, no matter what Grinch is in your life. The scene is simple, but the amazing coloring and lineart brings great emotion to the piece! Little details make the air look appropriately chilly and despite what holiday you may celebrate, these OCs perfectly represent the chaos than family adds to any holiday. Brilliant redraw! Find her DeviantArt here.

Cozy Warm Night by ArtisticAsianBunny

ArtisticAsianBunny - Cozy Warm Night

Contrasting our first piece, this drawing really brings out the warmth in the holiday season. With minimal lineart, the colors and lighting act as the foundation of the scene, with the fireplace adding dramatic shadows. The composition perfectly reflects its title: cozy! And if the talent shown in this piece wasn’t enough, the easter eggs hidden around the room puts adds that final cherry on top. What’s your favorite reference? Can you find them all? Find her DeviantArt here.

Happy Holidays by ray-of-flight

ray-of-flight - Happy Holidays

Super cute!!! The minimal shading adds depth to an otherwise simple drawing, and the design is just perfect for the holiday season. I mean, who doesn’t love a grumpy Zeus-Santa? And Binary Bard surprisingly makes red and green… pop! The cartoon-ish emotion is charming and the coloring and lineart looks super soft! Find his DeviantArt here.

HAPPY NEW YEAR by CraftyPoptropican

CraftyPoptropican - HAPPY NEW YEAR

Continuing our celebratory theme, this piece showcases the colorful nature of the holidays! The dynamic fireworks and fluid posing brings life to the scene and perfectly emphasizes the party! The colors are bright and unique, showing the intensity of a romantic New Years tradition. Stunning work!!! Find his DeviantArt here.

Happy 2019! by ckrocks12345

ckrocks12345 - Happy 2019

Another unique piece! I’ve always been fond of pixel art, so this drawing is a great one to kick off the new year. The scene is simple, but certainly cool and colorful. It focuses on messing around with art and having fun, exploring and growing your talent. Anyone have any art related resolutions for the new year? Find his DeviantArt here.


Honorable Mentions

No honorable mentions this month, but that’s alright! Submissions were spectacular as always, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for January!


January: How do I Participate?

Community Creations is a cool series for anyone in the Poptropica community to join in on. To sum up what it’s about, it’s basically a chance to show off your artwork, creepy fan-fics, Pop clubhouses, costumes, and anything else that pops into your mind.

If we really like the piece you submit, we will feature it here on the PHB! As long as it relates to that month’s theme. So what is January’s theme? January’s theme is…

Magic!

New Years is a magical time for a lot of people, as well as a chance to start fresh and work towards new goals. Meanwhile, fictional worlds like Poptropica bring similar magic to a wide variety of players! From the simple wonders of fortune cookies to the grand impressions of Disney World, magic is something that everyone loves to behold. So… it’s an appropriate theme to kick off the new year!

Well, what can you submit exactly then? With this broad theme, the only limit is your imagination! Draw a scene from one of the most magical islands! Create costumes for beautiful fairies or other magical creatures! Write a mystical Pop fan-fiction filled with spellbinding twists and turns! The magic is up to you…

I CAN SEE THE FUTURE...and it's full of spelling errors.

  • Submitting: Comment below with a link to whatever you’ve created OR share it with me (SydVC aka Spotted Dragon) on DeviantArtTwitter, or Discord.
  • Results: I will feature 5 of the submissions as well as 3 honorable mentions.
  • Limitations: Nothing NSFW, and make sure you relate to the theme.
  • Due Date: I will take any entries before the end of this month. Submit as many things as you’d like!

I will always be sure to let you know I have seen your creation. Bonus points if you make a compelling description for your piece! While quality counts, I’m mainly looking for something to simply catch my eye, so don’t be afraid to join in!

So what are you waiting for? Go make something awesome!

  1. http://www.poptropica.com/avatarstudio/avatar.html?a=bbEpKTGpWYldGbmFXTm9aV0Z5ZEhNPQ%3D%3D

    This is an entry for this month. She’s ready to get to work for next year. She’s also prepared for when her magic stops working.(as you can see, she has a jet pack on.) She also has bangs.(If you look closely, you’l see) And she also has a candy cane in her hand. Also, when you look in the photo down below, you’ll see that she has a elf follower. She has an elf friend who loves to hang out with her. She and her friend are waiting to get picked up by the reindeer who will bring her back to the North Pole to make presents for next year.

  2. I have another costume. I added the dog head because one of my other characters had a friend who had a dog head and then I friended her. If anyone wants to customize the dog head, his username is epic71. Here it is!

    And this is the friend who had the dog head. I think he got it from Keith. By the way, what’s Keith’s username?

    Also, I wrote three comic strips for community creations. I will put them up soon. Their not complete yet.

  4. http://www.poptropica.com/avatarstudio/avatar.html?a=bTGVKUjlrWlhCcFl6VTU%3D Its name is the mutant hot dog.This may look like the galactic hot dogs hot dog, but it’s not. I has a story. To make this hot dog, you must plant it. It was planted by a nuclear waste plant. One day, someone spilled some nuclear waste. I got into the plant. When it grew, it grew legs and walked away. Now, when someone puts the special sauce (the mutant hot dog has it in its hand) on it and takes a bite out of it, they’ll get super powers. It looks like someone wants super powers!

  5. I initially intended this to be this quick post but my mind just went wild and turned it into an entire story. The costume is old (I created it years ago) and the story, as it stands, is very underdeveloped. In fact, when I finished it, I didn’t know if I should make this entry or not. In the end, I spent all of today working on it and I didn’t want my hard work to be put to waste, so I figured: why not? Since it is too long for a comment, the story is in a Google document, which is linked below.
    Here’s my entry:

    Name(s): Ramona (Karishma)
    Occupation: Queen of Aktesh
    Story: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DX07Kr-wOrP1AW-NGm0zwhx7HPCrcubt3DzRlF5K80o/edit
