Phew! This is extremely late! I got a bit overly ambitious, and this took me an absurdly long time to complete. But it's finally ready, just before the new year. I present my 2025 Holiday drawing!
Well, there's quite a lot going on here. So let's go down the list from left to right in this picture.
Cooper & Kottarooi
I'm not sure how many drawings of done of Cooper riding Kottarooi's back. But they just seem so cute together like that. I'm not sure it's entirely visible here, but Cooper has his right hand extended out with his index finger pointing upward. As if to say "Onward to adventure!" Or... maybe just onward to the ice cream shop. XD
Ramune and EatMyBirdz
Forgive me, but I'm not sure what the name of the flaming protogen on the left. But Birdz my Secret Santa gift for this year. And this guy has to have been the most detailed character I had to draw out of all of them. Don't get me wrong though, I thought that was a fun little challenge, and I'm actually pretty happy with the results. And given that we have another protgen character, and one without its head attached, I felt like Ramune would be happy to team up together.
@remvolt
Admittedly, I used a bit of an outdated reference for Rem when I started this project. One that portrayed Rem as a cat and not a fox. But luckily it seemed like a pretty simple fix with what I had here. Although I was advised that instead of a staff, Rem can wield a giant paint brush. So I changed the staff I initially drew to a paint brush. Honestly, I think Rem would made a heck of a character for a custom DnD campaign.
@eluthar
I'm not entirely sure if this character is named Eluthar or just "Cute Fox." Because most of the drawings with this character are labeled as such. XD That said, I referenced a drawing of this character from 2022 where he is wearing a scarf, simply because I thought it would go well with a winter themed setting.
@parlareart
Yet another drawing of Jessi wearing a Jack Skellington hoodie. But wait! That's not her usual Jack Skellington hoodie! So, yeah, IRL, Cyd actually got a new Jack Skellington hoodie that now glows in the dark. And I thought a great way to show that off would be to draw Jessi admiring her new sweatshirt. "Look! It gloooows!"
Ketsui
This was just a fun scenario I thought of. What if Maria just found Ketsui so cute that it made Collin jealous. And judging by the look on Collin's face, he might be feeling a little insecure right now. Sometimes Maria can be such a tease with Collin. XD
@sp-modblog and @eonstro
You may have noticed that I skipped over Milo here. Well, you may notice that Eon and Milo both are playing a video games. My thought here being that they're playing a game with each other. Although, I don't think Quincy is all to happy about them being so focused on their game right now. XD
@vadapega
I think my inspiration for this one was somewhat based on a drawing of Pantufa with that look on their face. And I just loved the way it made Pantufa look like they're scheming something. And wanting to add Vivie, I went with a pose I thought would be reminiscent of Banjo-Kazooie. Not sure why, other than to just make a fun little reference.
Bru Badger
It's Roocan with his signature Santa suit! Usually Roocan is portrayed with a fake Santa beard, but I kinda feel like the suite works a little better on him without it. Usually, I'm not great at drawing larger characters, but I think I got the look down a little better this time around.
@treevis121
Well, it's Lytzyv again. I wish I could tell you more about him. And there are some things I do know about him but can't disclose here. That said, he's still a very mysterious character. So, I can't really imagine what his thoughts about being here would be.
@malamiteltd
And last but certainly not least we have Sketch Tucker and Heather Britannia. Admittedly this is based on a drawing I did of them from 2013. But my posing skills weren't as great back then, and I thought it would be fun to try this again. Sketch is using his Tokaru powers to make a gift for Heather levitate. Sketch has a bit of a smirk on his face while Heather looks a bit in awe. Although I'm not sure if it's over the package levitating, or that he's got a gift for her.
Anyway, I hope everyone had a great Holiday season this year. Now if you'll excuse me, I need some rest. Happy New Year, everyone!
