Above each art piece is the recipient. Feel free to make your guesses (whether you're guessing your own SS or someone else's)! Feel free to deny and confirm any guesses from anyone at any time! Just please don't guess the artist if you're not the recipient and you think it's super obvious or confirm/deny guesses for art that you aren't the Secret Santa for ^^ And of course, please do not announce you were so-and-so's SS before someone can accurately guess unless it's been a while! One last thing - please do not comment on the ability of an artist in a negative way. Everyone has their own artistic ability, and they tried their best for you. If you can't encourage or compliment them, just don't say anything.

Merry Crisis" @Lilytuft @Merp_The_Derp @Tilly Higher quality download And that is all for this year! Y'all made some great art ❤️

It's always nice to see this tradition continue into the New Year and all of the wonderful art it brings. I deeply respect the hosts and participants who further contribute to the community gallery and give everyone something to look forward to in this month. Though this time I wasn't able to take part, even from the outside, the dedication and hard work put into the effort of every piece is apparent. Thank you, and may we have many more secret santas to come! (As a side note, I just realized that it seems every nicheling with ram horns was depicted with their horns being behind the ears, adversely to the in-game art. Everyone collectively decided these critters need their full hearing without some lousy keratin getting in the way lol)

Scugs (Im not even that close to finshing all of them)

winterjou but they’re itty bitty scrunkly eepy scongle dongle

WoF designs for a speedpaint video! I need to write the script and record before I post the video, but ya'll get to see the dragons ahead of time Guess what tribes they are hybrids of to win a brimming glass of air (clue: the first 2 are hybrids, and Chalcedony is a tribrid)

Decided to try painting with Firealpaca. Surprisingly fun! And messing with layer modes for the first time in a long while

New!: (I misspelled freckle and ended up deciding not to fix It because I am tired) Old:

wow i sure wonder who this was made by. surely it couldnt be pepper the token straight

omg everyone's art looks so pretty!!! (mine looks goofy tho 💀) i like how whoever drew mine switched up the design a bit- it was unexpected, but i still love it :3 I'm guessing Liz based on the artstyle

i'm pretty sure mine was made by polly! thank you it looks amazing gsfsdgsgd everyone else did great too!!!

Oooo these are all so pretty! I definitely recognize a few styles here, but not the one mine was drawn in. I love the smooth painterly look of it, kind of reminds me of a clay figurine! And the little toe beans aaaa

jelliiiiiiiiiiii :3

Jan 19th: Respeledant Quetzal! Truly a bootiful bir Fun fact: These birds are considered sacred by some Mesoamerican religions. It may have inspired Quetzalcoatl, an Aztec diety.

Jan 18th, 2024: Large Frogmouth. Because they look like they just woke up and realised it was a Monday. This one has a child.

January 17th bird of the day- The long-tailed tit! Look how cute it is! bir :3

Bird of the day. Simply bird species of the day. That's it. Jan 15th, 2024- Indian Paradise Flycatcher Reason for birb of the day is because it looks like it has a different bird's head edited on Let's see how long I can keep up with bird of the day

Hello people I don't know! I've seen Stray Fawn Studio numerous times on the internet and never thought to make an account on it. After 3 years, I came across it again, and decided to join because why the heck not? Anyways hi, my name is Star (Starphobia on most other websites), and I like to make art ✨ I also like meeting new people (NOT IRL NO NO) because I'm lonely and need more people to talk to and share my art with lmaoo I can be hesitant to talk being shy but once you get to know me, promise, I'm nice. I can be crazy, almost insane, but I'm nice. I swear I wasn't dropped as an infant. My Fandoms/interests include (DON'T JUDGE ME IF YOU DON'T LIKE ME IDC 😭) Demon Slayer (Kimetsu No Yaiba) Warrior Cats Wings of FIre (Kind of???) Ninjago (Rewatching the whole show because hooray) Art/Animation Reading fanfics in a dark room (SFW fanfics I swear I'm not that weird 😭) Writing original stories/books Writing fanfics (I do this rarely but oh well) DEVELOPING MY ORIGINAL STORY FELICATE Anyways bye

Also sidenote Tilly I love your artstyle so much, it's so detailed and it has a lovely ink and paint quality that I would love to achieve in my art one day! Your animal anatomy is really good as well :). I love how we do secret santa every year, like pincerclaw said, it's something to look forward to and enjoy each year, it never repeats itself and is always super fun and unique!

Icicle (she is about to kill someone)

January 16th bird of the day is the Hoatzin. This thing looks like a freaking dinosaur, I love it Fun fact: The young of these birds have claws on their wings. Here's a photo where the claws are visible Fun fact 2: They eat mostly leaves. The way they digest these makes them smell bad so they're nicknamed 'Stinkbirds'

Ok I’m done
