Judging

Entries are judged by the overall effort of the singular piece. It isn't judged against your gallery or against other competitors, but how much work you put into this one entry. Details and creativity are what we mostly look for.

A grand champion will be chosen for whichever horse won the most points, so putting your horse in more than one class will up your chances of this reward! This prize will be given to only one horse throughout the whole show.

 Judges choice will be for a single entry that truly stands out to the judges. This prize will be given to only one horse throughout the whole show, however this prize is not guaranteed to be given out in all shows.

AQHR Monthly Show Judging Matrix

Any one who does not play by the following rules will be disqualified:  

Entry MUST be made ONLY for this show. (No reusing unjudged entries, no entering one entry into multiple shows).  

Collabs are NOT allowed.  

No commissioned works or premade outlines allowed. (Note that this does not mean outlines you made for this show and want to reuse, but premade outlines made by someone else or that you have used outside the show).
