Snow Miku 2015 Finalists and Winner

If you weren't able to check out the stream via Nico Nico Douga, there was a livestreaming of Snow Miku 2015 and her rabbit companion Yukine. The theme for the contest was "Plant life in Hokkaido".

Here is a compilation of the finalists:

The Mikus in question are super cute but honestly my personal favorite was 1, mainly because of the combination of the adorable European-styled dress and braids. While all the designs were cute there could only be one winner and that is...

It seemed that a lot of the contestants drew from the Lilly of the Valley plant for inspiration, heck there's even two of them in the finalists. I do have to admit she's quite a cutie, and I love the flowers in her hair and the more gentle colors in style that she picked for her illustration.

Now all we have to see is how Good Smile Company will take this design and make a nendoriod out of it. And the other limited edition goods that will come from it.

The Snow Miku contest is one of the things I look forward to since now people can generate their own content and vote on which one they like. Even if you don't like Miku, the yearly Snow Miku series is something to collect.
