2010 Winter Olympics Fanart

[edit]
Okay, i lost, i didn't get first place, neither second nor third. and THIS is why i usually don't do contest! I may sound like a sore loser, but seriously! winners i am okay with the first place, though its a bit plain but still looks good, but the second and third place? You can'T tell me that this cellshading style with boring poses is actually better than mine?! Yes i'm freaking pissed(and i need to let the steam out a bit)

For the contest of

At first i wanted to draw a german anime character like Asuke(NGE) holding the german flag, but then i remembered that i don't like the idea of nations represented by a few selected people in a contest and so i threw that idea away

then i thought it should have something to do with the image of the winter olympics and so i got around to the mascots for the 2010 winter Olympics.

I thought it would be cute to humanized them(and genderbend a bit) and so here you go! Original Mascots

I hope i win! *want to have a deviantart subscription*

p.s.: Those of you who know the anime may realize it already, but the style of the kid down left is inspired by the anime "Hanamaru Kindergarten" i became a fan of that series and always wanted to try out that style.
