Congrats Mythili, your copycat Rangoli is fantastic. The color combination is bright and beautiful. In competition they allow friends to help ? Anyhow give the credit to her also. What was ur VIP's comment? some tips to get 1st prize next time.......1)The basic squares and circles u draw before to get symmetrical design shold not be visible once you finish the Rangoli.u could have colored the left out area in and around the circle or rubbed the lines.
2) The mango designs are nice but not the same size, the ezhai and inner fillings also not the same everywhere... should pay attention to that. 3) The blue semi circle with white twirls are nice and attractive, but the number of twirls in each segment is not the same... vast difference 4) the inner 6 fold symmetry is not matching with the outer 4 fold corner flowers... so the placement of lamps looking odd..Mythili , since u said it was a competition entry, I gave these clues to improve these areas so that next time u will get the !st prize. U can impress ikolam members and VIP with ur lovely rangolis but the judges eyes are dfferent.

Thanks rajamma mam for the really useful comments. I will keep in mind the tips that you shared here. Yeah, sometimes they allow group of people for the competition, maximum 2 persons are allowed per team. Thanks to akilandeswari,anirudh and alameluranganath for the comments.

In competition, they always have strict timeline. And for this competition, its only 25 minutes. This kolam would have been better when the allotted timeline is more.

I don't know how much time Mrs akhilanDESvari took for her rangOli. Certainly, to execute the above in 25 minutes, even with four hands, is certainly laudable. Once again, the leaves have come out well. Actually, I will not call this a copy, only as an inspiration. Her pattern is eight-fold and yours six-fold. In fact this pattern has some thing in addition, i.e., the six-fold symmetry is well preserved here. Very good colouring. Any way, beautiful work, amply rewarded! Be happy

Wow to do it in 25 minutes is really amazing... I take around 1-1/2 to 2 hrs to color and do simple kolams itself... really a commendable work and well-deserved prize

Zone of improvement I think should be the mango design as they do not match each other at all. Rest seems quite ok. Congrats on this attempt and I think Rajam has given enough tips for you to follow next time
