Entry 3
Title: “スノウ・イルミネーション / Snow Illumination”
Artist: 白雪とわ / Shiroyuki Towa
Entry details: https://piapro.jp/t/4hY9
Artist commentary:
“My Snow Miku has a lot of sparkly illumination accessories decorating her hair. The standout feature is the giant bow atop her head. Her overall form is meant to resemble a tree while her coloring is like that of a lit-up silver and blue pond. I also added colorful ornaments so that she wouldn’t be all dark colors, and so that the viewer can get a greater sense of fun from her.”
“Appearing on a snowy night, Snow Miku uses her magical item to bathe the entire Hokkaido town in illumination. She and Yukine will be sending smiles to all!”
Entry 4
Title: “きらきらウィンター ~光を集めて~ / Sparkling Winter ~Gather the Lights~”
Artist: 朝顔みのる / Asagao Minoru
Entry details: https://piapro.jp/t/oJbN
Artist commentary:
“I designed her with the image of a winter street lined with trees sparkling with illuminations! Speaking of which, because there’s a strong theme of illuminated trees in her design, I included a hat and stick to represent tree branches, and designed her skirt with a tree pattern. Another point to her design is the use of fluffy fur that resembles snow. Even if she is somewhere completely dark, she can use her stick to control light, and before you know it, she’ll change the whole scene into a beautifully sparkling stage♪”
Entry 5
Title: “雪ミク2021 / Snow Miku 2021”
Artist: YUK
Entry details: https://piapro.jp/t/ibL9
Entry 6
Title: “雪ミク2021 / Snow Miku 2021”
Artist: 杏夏蜜柑 / Annatsumikan
Entry details: https://piapro.jp/t/CySS
Artist commentary:
“Going with the theme of illuminations, I designed her with a choir motif. Her netted dress is meant to resemble the intersecting branches of a row of trees decorated with illuminations. Furthermore, with the Sapporo Clock Tower in mind, I made the back of her beret look like a clock dial, designing her to look like the town of Sapporo decorated in illuminations.”
“I’m personally fond of how the ribbons on the clock dial beret resemble hour and minute hands, and how the ribbon around her waist resembles angel wings. I hope you like it.”
