I would like to second what everyone is saying...
  • There are so many cool portraits that it would take all day to properly comment on them all! Maybe I will try later, but no promises.
  • And I would like to thank Wavewright for organizing this awesome event, and letting us see so many cool works, both old and new.

Well done, everyone - I've been super busy but have enjoyed taking a few minutes here and there to enjoy the calendar. Thanks for all the organizational work, wave. Now I'm off to see if I can get something other than a "meh" ending...  ;D

Assembling that portrait compilation forced me to set up the drawing tablet, neglected from the move and the busy time of year.  Seeing as how it's back in action, I coloured my Father Christmas lineart.  I could use to tweak it further, but what the hey, it's good enough for a bit of that Danish hygge for y'all, yes?

The portrait collection is lovely!

Thanks so much to everyone who participated in the advent calendar, and for Wave especially for organising it all! Father Christmas Mikkel in all his full-colour magnificence truly has smiled upon us all.

All these are lovely, but I think Father Christmas Mikkel is my favourite!

Wow, amazing picture, Wave!. All those vibrant colours! It's wonderful, and, better yet, it really conveys the spirit of this place, of us all raising our glasses to this great group of people.  :sparkle: ^-^ :sparkle:

Now, one last pic from my series of portraits to cover the whole team:

Spoiler: show


Princess Tuuri Organa, rebel when not fixing her hair

Tuuri Organa, together with her brother Onni Skywalker, will try to set the galaxy free from the evil Emperor Palpakade and his devilish commander, Darth Ensi.
The brothers will have the help of two droid, C3-PEmil and R2-DLalli, and a bunch of smugglers lead by Mikkel Solo, together with his co-pilot Kittybacca and old pal Sigrun Carlissian.
What she doesn't know yet is that Darth Ensi is actually (spoiler alert) her grandmother, Ensi Skywalker, turned to the dark side by the malevolent emperor.

Hi! Just to report that I've reached the very best ending at Tehta's amazing game!  :sparkle: ;D :sparkle:
"You have accumulated seven elements of Yuletide cheer, which is wonderful, while managing to avoid all injury, which is unexpected" and an extra bonus at the end!  <3

Waaaait, *counts* I did leaveTuuri Organa off the compilation?!  (That explains why I had an extra slot left over that I couldn't reconcile.  :siv:) My apologies, thegreyarea!
