Christmas is sneaking up on us. It’s the time of year that we all just love to give to others! And what better way then to draw request pictures for someone else. Now I would like to draw everyone’s request myself but of course I know I can’t.

So, as you may have guessed by now, I was thinking of organizing a Secret Santa Art Trade.

All you have to do is post your request here. Then on the December 5^th I will scramble up your names and randomly chose someone on the list to draw your request. All requested drawings for your secret Santa are due from December 24^th to January 1^st. We all understand that you may have family or friends to spend time with during Christmas and you may not be able to get online that’s why it doesn’t have to be in until the 1^st of January.

Rules:

Only post your request if you’re willing to draw someone else’s request.
Keep your request simple. Only ask for them to draw one or two characters please.
If you believe you are going to be late handing in your requested drawing please note me and I will note the Requester.
Please don’t submit the requested picture before the 24^th.
Do not tell your secret Santa that your there secret Santa! That would ruin the surprise!

When you submit your picture (on Dec 24^st to Jan 1^st) Post it here too so we may all see.

Keep in mind that we need at lest 5 people to join by December 5^th for the Secret Santa Art Trade to work.

Secret Santa’s:

My Request:

As always I would love it if someone could draw my character Kuro for me. I have a few images of him in my gallery.

Kuro was born into a happy family and lived a great life till the age of three. That was when everything was taken away from him. His parents were murdered and he was taken in by an evil man he called 'The Red Demon'. He was beaten by the red demon day and night being told that he had great powers and was to use them. He never learned how to use these great powers until the age of 16 in which he use them to destroy the red demon. After that he became known as the dark emperor. His goal was to destroy this world and create a new one.

At most times Ken's expression is a sad one. Though he is never seen crying his eyes tell of great sorrow. However he dies have a hot temper. If his plains are spoiled or he happens to be in a bad mood and you talk to him... watch out! He might try to chop of your head. As for smiling? Nothing makes him happier then getting his own way. He loves picking on innocent souls and has a habit of smiling when doing so.

Note that as a child his wings are a pretty Yellow. They turned black after he killed the Red Demon using shadow magic at the age of 16.

I'm in! This sounds like fun.
My request: 1st choice would be Sesshoumaru and Vegeta (non-super saiyan) in some sort of yaoi suggestive situation. 2nd choice just Sesshoumaru in a suggestive pose. Although I'm pretty open. Anything with that hunky guy would be a great gift ^.^

Here's some reference of Sesshoumaru from Inuyasha:

And Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z:

I'm always keen for a picture swap. I'd be dissapointed if my secret Santa didn't reply like my last one (But Fable Spinner made it up for me cause she's such a sweety ^^ *snuggles*) but I'll give it another try [smiley]

I'd like a picture of one of these 2 couplings (Only one couple- there is a choice though ^^)

Alex and Athena

(Both Alex and Athena wear their hair down normally, but if they dress up its usually back somehow. For a better description, they're listed here in my OC party forum page [smiley]

or

Bryan and Julia PsuedoDragon page (Bryan can have jaw length hair too- the medieval version of him [smiley] Either is good.)

Last year's SS was a blast and I'd love to join in again this go-'round.

As far as my request goes, I'd prefer art of my OCs, Roitelet and Bennari ( or just Ro if you don't like doing two people). They're brothers and Ro takes it upon himself to pester the heck out of Ben at any oppurtunity. Since this is Christmas and all, a holiday-related prank would make my day. If a prank isnt' your thing, then do whatever you see fit. x3

The ref for Ben isn't the best. I will try to amend that as soon as I can. Other images that include the two are here, and here (make it a game, try and find them). Ro is scattered throughout my DA gallery but Ben gets no love. xD

For my ss, I want a picture of my Remi. He's my radioactive fox-boy! He's about medium size with lime green fur and hair. If you want to do highlights they look best in lemon yellow. He has purple eyes that slant upwards. Remi is very mischevious and somewhat gullable. Unless it has something to do with computers or math, he is totally in the dark. He's kinda like a sugar-high five year old. His favorite things are cheetos, video games, hugs, and baby animals(especially ducks). I'm not really sure how to put mini pictures of my art on the post, so please forgive me. You'll have to look in my gallery for pictures of Remi. I'll try to post a ref soon. [smiley] Oh, Remi's kind of a nympho too. He loves rave parties and has an avid drug habit. As for orientation, he's normally gay but he will screw anything that moves. If you wanna draw him with your char, thats fine too. And he doesn't really have a background story except for the fact that he was abandoned as a baby. I haven't figured anything else out for him yet. I just don't wanna put anything else cliche on him.

You know what? Count me in. This might be just the thing to pull me out of my slump.

As for requests - how about something Alice in Wonderland themed? [smiley] I do luffs my Alice in Wonderland. Or something involving Lewis Carroll (and/or his stories) in general.

OR, if you're up for a challenge, you could design a Dranid for me. [smiley] Dranids are a dragon-like species of my own creation. They're an all-male species (so none of this "GIRL" business. xD) and are known for being very pretty (VERY. But not all feminine), wealthy-looking, and...well, ritzy.

I don't think I have any Dranids in my gallery. I'll try to fix that. But really, the Lewis Carroll stuff is fine. :3

I would LOVE to do this! [smiley]

Here's my request:

Character: Mr. Atonni Maxie
Refs:
1 (I didn't draw that, but I did the rest.)
2

He's 7'4 and very cultured; he's very graceful in all he does. Very rich, very powerful, and a fantastic fighter, this beautiful Italian male is a dark creature, a wolf demon with serious issues. He likes to fight but would prefer underhanded, clever, malicious manipulation, and is very strong, though his mental state is weak. Aton hates being bested, and is going to find a way to win eventually. Everything he owns is very expensive, and although he may be strong and usually cold, he is also very kind (lotsa 'very's here, eh? +sigh+).

Skin: tan
Eyes: emerald
Hair: blue

Everything he does is graceful and purposeful.

OPTIONAL!
Sometimes I find it hard to draw without another person in the picture, so I'll put Kiran here too, though if you'd rather just draw Mr. Maxie I will not be upset. [smiley]

Kirannus Johansson (prefers Kiran)

refs:
1
2

Self-destructive, Kiran is just uncaring enough to do anything. He drives like a madman, he does concerts and fights randomly and does all sorts of illegal substances. Usually dressed in only a pair of very baggy jeans, he keeps to himself (mostly). Having been through a lot in his life, he can be anywhere at any time and has no problem with it. Dressing up in anything is alright with him, and he takes a lot very seriously while disregarding a lot of serious things. [smiley]

He's also Atonni's lover, btw. ^^
Again, he's just optional.

Skin: dead white
Eyes: lightless black
Hair: silver to black... it's shown in the refs, if you're interested. [smiley]

I'm sorry my descriptions aren't very good... You can go through my gallery if you need more info, since I can't help, but I don't know how much else I could provide...

Thank you, SS! I'll do my best too!

I would absolutely LOVe someone to do a picture of my OC's, Arilyne and Darren. I'll give both descriptions, and let you choose between a romantic picture of them(<33333), or just one or the other. (It's a medieval fantasy story, btw)

Arilyne Navarrede (17): Long, thick, dark blonde hair, fairly wild. Gray eyes, square face. Tanned, freckly skin. She's very independent and loves freedom, a commodity which she hasn't had most of her life. She grew up as a servant, though she's of royal lineage (yeah, I know, I know), and sometimes her proud nature shows in her carriage and attitude, not to mention her temper. She has an athletic, almost boyish body, with squared shoulders, narrow hips, and lean muscle. She normally wears one of two things; a loose shirt, breeches, and a dirty pair of too-big riding boots, or a plain servant's dress with the same boots ^^ Though once the story picks up, she sometimes gets to dress up in finery worthy of any princess. She is also very good friends with a handsome, dapple grey drum horse named Barlin.

Darren Caireune (19): Dark brown, thick and wavy, ear-length. Green-gold eyes, well defined face (and hopelessly handsome, in my opinion). Olive-tan complexion. Darren is the prince of a rival country who isn't too fond of following in his father's footsteps. He's educated, a gentleman, but with a playfuly wild streak in him. He's fairly tall with a squire's build. He likes to wear simple things unless at official functions, normally a shirt and tunic with breeches and boots. Even simple, though, they are good quality, and heaven forbid he actually be forced to dress up.

The Romance: Basically, the country Arilyne's from was conquered by Darren's father. They meet at equal terms after he saves her from bandits (of course >< [smiley] , and remain friends even after she finds out what kind of family business he's expected to take over. Of course, Romeo falls head over heels with her, and just can't keep his mouth closed about it. But Arilyne, knowing they're from different worlds completely, denies him, though the feeling is mutual. He doesn't give up though, much to her chagrin, and things only get more complicated when she finds out that her homeland, which she never knew, is screaming for war against Darren and his father. And let the WB-style drama ensue *sigh* I'm hopeless...

That was a bit long-winded, wasn't it xDDD

Hello,

I'd like to join too! [smiley]

My request would be Cedna (the left figure in this pic http://puayen.deviantart.com/art/To-Fill-for-Randomness-62704118) along with Trowa (main character in this http://puayen.deviantart.com/art/TA-2-64946777). Hopefully it would be something humorous...

Haha, same here, would like a request [smiley]

Mine would be my OC Wu Zhi (http://dienle.deviantart.com/art/Long-Fei-Feng-Wu-43406173) He is a husky anthro and his personality is that of a foolish person who somehow gets to make it into the place as one of the main characters in my story.

The second one is Lin Kal (http://dienle.deviantart.com/art/Heir-of-the-Dragon-40241057) She is the girl with the fan in the picture, and her personality is that of a very tough and rude girl.

Hope anyone who draw it would enjoy drawing the two of them ^^

Hi,

I heard that my Secret Santa is having a bit of trouble with my character; thus, here's a bit more description:

1) Cedna: male, 19 years old, black, waist-length hair (short at the front), slightly tanned skin, large pointed ears, fangs, moderately slender figure, optional wings. Usually wears a kilt or long baggy trouser- though also often in modern styles. Previously a slave, now a liberated spirit. Kind and compassionate in appearance, but also very strong in within.

For ref: http://puayen.deviantart.com/art/Lighter-Than-Air-50030997, http://puayen.deviantart.com/art/The-Sparrow-43083587, and more in puayen.deviantart.com

2) Trowa: male, who-knows-how-old, a german-shepherd-mixed-chow-chow dog anthro, rich brown, with light brown tuff of hair on head, wide muzzle. Muscular with broad shoulder, four-fingered paw-hand. The emperor of Atlantisa (a fictitious planet). Ridiculous, idiotic, spontaneous in characteristics.

For ref: http://puayen.deviantart.com/art/TA-2-64946777, http://puayen.deviantart.com/art/quot-I-m-the-Emperor-quot-59408305, http://www.puayen.com/Integration%20Art%20Region/web-content/TTO2W/TTO2W%20Official/The%20Official%20TTO2W%20Site.html.

Hope these help [smiley]

I have a slight problem- I'm nearly finished my secret Santa (Just finished the inks) but I'm moving between 21st and after Christmas and there's a possiblity that I'l either be too busy to post on the 24th, or I wont have internet. Can I email it incase it can't be posted on time? Like- a low res? (Posting size) so they do get it in time for Christmas? I'd hate to be the loser that posts it too late T.T
