Modiano Urania Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Comment below if you'd like to a be a Secret Santa and recipient. With this comment, include a picture of the nicheling you'd like drawn, as well as any info you can give about them (genes, personality, hobbies, differences from photo etc). If you are giving a picture not from the game, please include their official niche genes. Signups end the 25th of December! I will use a random generator to pair participants. (I will not be a participant) I will pm everyone with their recipient's name, nicheling and info. Everyone makes their art. It can be traditional, digital, pixel, a sculpture, whatever you want; animation, gif, plain, anything! Please try your best with this. The quality of your art style is not to be judged, but please make it just as good or even better than your usual art! Do not sign your art or post it on any platform, including the forums. Everyone PMs their art to me as soon as they are finished. Art is due by 15th of January If you do not send in your art in time, I will request art from an Emergency Santa to fill the place. You may only post your art AFTER the rest of the art is released on On or slightly after January 20th, I will post the finished art with the recipient's name (I will not reveal the Santas myself). Everyone may make their guess on who was their Secret Santa. Secret Santas may confirm or deny these guesses. Please wait for your recipient to guess you and then confirm the guess rather than announce that you were so-and-so's santa. If it's been a while and you're not sure who your SS and you made a guess without confirmation, PM me and I'll confirm it for you. If your recipient has made a correct guess and you confirmed, you may post your art to other places (DeviantArt, Fanart section etc). You may also sign the art. (If you'd like your signed art used instead of the unsigned version if posted elsewhere by other people, just say so.) Like the last few years, we will have Emergency Santas (ESs). ESs will make art for anyone whose Secret Santa did not finish or submit their art by the 15th. ESs need to be able to quickly make art. This Emergency Art (EA) does not need to be of the same quality of the official art; EA is just so everyone can receive something at the same time. ESs can also be a regular Santa at the same time but are not required to be. Just ask if you'd like to be an Emergency Santa. They're documented below. Emergency Santas: @Modiano Urania @lizardcake @Stranger @Lilytuft TIPS -Try out a new style or a style you haven't revealed before. It will be harder to guess the Secret Santas. -Don't start a big project if you're not 100% you can finish it. Go with something simple to give yourself time to finish and not be rushed. OTHER -This is the 6th annual Secret Niche Art Santa!!! -Check out previous Signups here: 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 -Check out previous Art here: 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 REMEMBER THIS - Sign up below by December 25th. -Send in your nicheling submissions by January 15th. -Start your art as soon as possible once I PM the info. -Send in our art no later than January 15th. -If you do not submit your art by then, a volunteer will make art in its place. Save your late art for Jan 20th or later. -On or near Jan 20th, the art will be released. Make your guesses and make sure to confirm or deny if they're directed to you! -MERRY CHRISTMAS Y'ALL As this is my first time hosting the Secret Santa, please tell me if anything should be changed! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirbMonster Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Entering with Jimbo Weiners He's a really nice guy but was seperated/quarantined from his tribe because he's sickly. A polite fellow, just wants to have a real friend 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizardcake Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) AAAA /POS entering with anala since i redesigned her just today!! she's just kind of a selfish trashcan, hardly ever caring about anyone else's survival but her own. her genes are normal ears, ram horns, short snout, big body, runner legs (though one is scarred and basically a deformed paw), normal hind legs and swimming tail also, can i be an emergency santa this year too? :DD edit: she's from a swamp tribe, so if the person drawing her wants to do a background some kind of wetland would be really cool :] Edited December 9, 2023 by lizardcake 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAТТRESS Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 MY FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR 💪 i feel like i always do the same 2 nichelings so im bringing out a new guy! his name is loquat does anyone remember that one seri tribe where she made like a bunch of critters and named them all after fruit yeah so this was like my terrible rip off of that (this was back before i developed a brain) but hes a cool guy either way he saved one of my nichelings from getting totally mauled by a carnivorous plant by just stumbling out of the grass right next to everyone so i could invite him and immediately put his life on the line. really good gameplay. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stranger Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS THANK YOU FOR HOSTING THIS MODIANO ♥️ Neoki is the red girl on the right. She is from my playthrough the deadly isle, and she is the leader of the tribe. She is very kind and wants to do the right thing, but is insecure in her abilities. She is also very clever and capable. (Btw she has weak muscles in her legs so she cant run or anything like that for too long) (I can be an emergency Santa!) 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda_ Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 kinda scared cause i'll have to draw art of someone's character and it'll be shown to everyone- but i'll join! Butterbear is the goddess of protection in my niche pantheon. She is sweet and kind, but fierce and overprotective when she feels that she or one of her companions is threatened. She hates seeing others suffer, and has killed many bearyenas in her life in order to defend her tribe. Also very skrunkly :3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxpsylla Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 i submit mr vankuku!! he is leader of a savanna pack, he likes to hunt, and hes very afraid of foxes (in his world there are savanna foxes) hes also kind of a coward and very immature, not a very good decision maker. only became leader bc his dad + second in command died at the same time LOL here are his official genes: here are some of his family members if, whoever gets vankuku, is interested in drawing them together his wife: their daughter: very excited for this year >:D 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilytuft Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Finally got around to looking for a nicheling. It's been so long since the last time I played. As always I've been waiting for this the whole year and can be an emergency santa as well Karhu here is a descendant of Ossen. She has normal hind legs (with brown socks) and hammer tail. Funny thing is we now have a rat with the same name 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tilly Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 (edited) aaaaa I almost missed this it goes by pinch; use of it intentional/reclamatory. - big body, large overall. - cracker jaw, which I have as long and...well, pinchy. like a dog-gator. - bearyena ears - ambiguous paws/feet, kinda like mild bearyena claws - fin tail, for swim - melanistic = black fur/reddish-black pawpads and snout/dark golden yellowy...ambery...that dark color cat eyes get for eyes and gems. - fur highlights reddish to even pinkish in summer from sun tl;dr wrestler/weightlifter Vaporeon with dog-gator pinchy snout. - mute, uses body language-heavy sign language - looks perpetually done with everything, but that's just the cracker jaw - actually is more learn all the things and determined. protective of small pups and other vulnerable folks (is studying to be a healer) - also likes swimming, kelp, and those tiny little spring ephemeral flowers that grow in a tundra climate (^ this one has the best eye color ^) ... also this Edited December 25, 2023 by Tilly I found the one with plants. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
