Username of newbie you are recommending: Yi`er
Reason you think they deserve to be entered: Edited, because Yi insist this won’t help with admin choice if she were to be unlucky with the raffle! (Icied totally agree though). Yi thinks the Sandpainters are beautiful and would love to own one. She has been stalking and lurking the thread. Her growing love for the Sandpainters, building up again, as this event goes on has resulted in, many lengthy discussion of drool feast along with Icied. Icied thinks she would make a splendid owner for any of these lovelies! Icied is sure Yi will start gathering new recruits for her growing harem once she get lucky enough to win~

Reason you think they deserve to be entered: Despite my horrendous case of Lurker-Syndrome, I've been stalking this shop for quite some time. The art is breathtaking, and the coloring superb. The shop stands above almost any other, on par with any of the breedable "hard-hitters." I think it has an amazing future (and present) and would love to be a part of it <3

Username of newbie you are recommending: Icied
Reason you think they deserve to be entered: First and foremost, Icied’s normal despite how she always talk in third-person.

She’s actually the one that told me the exsistance of the Sandpainters. As much as I would love to nominate myself, I believe that if I compare my love for the sandpainters to hers, mine would seem so insignificant which is why I decided to nominate Icied instead.

She loves the lineart of sandpainters the most (I remember how she squeal to me about how awesome they look and goes on about her obsession with dragons) and the amazing designs the colorists come up with. Like what Spade & Fluor said, Icied’s a brilliant writer and she’s able to come up with amazing concepts. However, she's really shy when it comes to posting in someone else shop because she's afraid that:

a. She gets ignored. (well, I believe most of us has this fear of being ignore whether we want to admit it or not. It's this feeling of being so out of place~ So the more popular the shop is, the bigger our fear is. or so What I think.)

or

b. She kills the thread.

Being her irl friend, I know everything from her deepest secret to her darkest side and I believe Icied will make a great owner and a loyal customer to the shop. <3
