Guy was built to kill people, prefers to watch TV (book series) Bunnies die horribly (book (actually two books but nobody's heard of the other one)/movie/cartoon/netflix series) Harry Potter in Russia (book series) (i have not read hp so idk how accurate this is but it sounded funny in my head) Medieval rags to riches because your friend is an idiot (video game) Your average horsegirl story involving a housefire and a giraffe (book, several of them actually)

We all collectively agreed to pair Firekai with Watersporter, right?

Like half the active people here lol

I've been fantasizing about this too

Nope, I'm an adult and don't have to go to school 😎 Going to have to read the rest of this thread tomorrow though because I want to go to bed so it'll be morning faster, and then I can go to the library to get the third book to a really good series I started reading a few days ago (read the first one in a single day and I've got no idea what I'll do once I run out)

I've had that a few times, yeah. Not sure why

BrokenShock!!! Welcome back

I have like 6 years worth of cringe stored here. Luckily this is a forgiving place

I mean, I was on the fence about it, but you were one of the few people I've seen more painterly work from with these kinds of proportions so you got to the top of the suspect list

Yayyy I realize now I never said it in my post but you were my first guess >:D Thank you for the beautiful art!

Ok, so, first of all, compliment time: -I adore the texture usage on Stranger's gift. Jaxpsylla (almost abbrevited you to Jax) is maximizing nicheling cuteness levels as usual! -Amazing use of shapes on Birb's gift! The way the sharp corners make their way into the spots, and the texture of the tail and horns - great job, presumably-Liz -Jaxpsylla's gift is soo nice and shapey, but the best part is the little details, each of which has clearly been shaped with great effort - the claws, the lighting on the gems, every little detail of the face... I really need to scroll through Birbs art threads more often! -I love how Pincer's gift has distinct yet realistic-feeling anatomy for the nicheling and bearyena. I wish I had that kind of grasp on different pecies! Since Pincer didn't know who it could be, I'm guessing Peanutpup based on it being traditional art and sticking somewhat close to the game style-wise -Liz's gift has such a wonderfully serene feel with great usage of colors. The fur looks so nice and fluffy too! Liz hasn't guessed who made it yet so I'm not going to either -Again with the textures, and the shapes too! Melon's bunny friend looks adorable! Not guessing this one yet either, and I'm not sure if I even could -Pepper's gift is max cuteness, and the usage of different tones for depth has been pulled off really well! Not sure who this is -Tundra's gift has such creative composition, with almost a playing card wibe. The colors work together great, and the effects are the cherry on top. Through process of elimination I think this is either Pincer or Stranger, which leads me to... whoever left being responsible for this amazingly cuddly scene! I love the painterly style, the atmosperic background, how fluffy the fur looks... SLARM's wrinkly little snoot is perfect and he looks so happy! Bearyena is so wonderfully soft-looking and I feel like I could just reach out, hold her face and feel the bone underneath like when petting a dog or a horse on the snoot (okay, that sounded creepier than it was supposed to, but point is she looks tangible and three-dimensional!) Thank you so much to whoever made this! It's going on the print-it-out-on-my-wall list

And so the tradition of getting caught on the first guess continues! Glad you like it, I had a ton of fun drawing her

I am the last surviving non-staff from my forum generation >:D (petition to start calling said generation "the ancients")

I look at my notifications every few days, or at least once a week usually

Phew this is still open For a second I was so scared I'd accidentally missed my favorite event of the entire year This may not be a smart decision on my part (already overwhelmed enough to have forgotten about this event lol), buuuut as always I'll sign up to be an emergency santa as well. As for a character... It's been so long since I've played niche, I think I'll go for a classic! Either one of these beloveds is fine! SLARM (slightly less annoying rogue male) has lean body, deformed paws, normal hindlegs, derpsnout, medium tail, shortsighted eyes and antlers. His colors aren't quite game-accurate, but if it helps, his eye-, horn- and mane colors are part of the default MS paint palette (also yes you can have his teeth showing. I usually draw him with a few poking out but somehow none of the images here have them) Bearyena is, well, a bearyena. Her colors are also not game accurate, but other than that you can just draw her like you normally draw bearyenas And in case anyone here is unaware, they're happily married

Absolutely gorgeous graphics. You can (manually) chop wood. You can go to the sauna. You can throw darts at wasp nests. You have to manually swat mosquitoes. You also have a gun. You can use the gun on any NPCs. (game)

You should put those in the Off-topic-section's fanart forum

Survivors?

I still can't get over how perfectly Goggles captured Ossen's energy. Even I can't get him to look that much like himself!

Nooooo

This will forever be the peak of my art career

Thank you so much! I'm glad your sister likes it too

Still working on spicing up her page

I've heard Safe and Sound before, but I just gave it a few listens, and I think it might have the perfect energy for this map. It's fun, upbeat, comforting even, and the lyrics are flexible enough to fit all sorts of situations We can still have the vote to make sure everyone's opinions are heard, but it's a strong competitor for sure!
