Well here it is, my annual Holiday DA Picture....and only done three days after Christmas. X-p Yes, yes I know...XD Well, coloring the whole thing and outlining without family or personal interferences really can hinder one's progress. XD By family interference; I mean that in a good way cause we had a fabulous Christmas. Hope you all did too.

Each member ofthe picture represented below respresents one of amny things as usual:

1) My buddy's own creation
2) My buddy's favorite video game or cartoon character
3) My buddy's Avatar
4) My buddy's personal interests in terms of drawing

Now as late as this picture is, I got to put in as many people as I could fit. The picture was originally gonna be one scene but through various editing and keeping it from looking crazy, I divided it into three different sections. The members of DA who I consider real life friends, frequent commenters, NOTE talkers and AIM pals, and all around people I feel deserve a spot on the picture. There's about 50 people total here; and we start the listing from left to right.

THE TREE DECORATORS:
RexRock69: Her awesome T Rex girl form putting up a Cortex ornament.
Silversister: The ever huggable and kawaii Silver fursona of hers putting up the Pinstripe Potoroo ornament.
Pentical: Pentical's imaginary pink friend Kate putting up the Wilt ornament.
Tani-Tiger: Tani the kick arse Tazmanian Tiger herself, putting up what other favorite ornament than the extra large Crunch ornament. XD

THE ORNAMENTS:
Estella: Topping the tree is a pretty boy angel of my own design; attributed to the nice number Estella makes from time to time.
SynDuo: Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends Bowling Paul with Mac on his shoulders; Paul's Syn's fave.
TenshiRyuu: The Roxas and Axel ornaments put side by side; but in a more brotherly fashion rather than yaoi. Axel in particular represents my friend Candice.^^

The-Chibi: Medusa from POTH; the blindfolded girl makes a good ornament no?
PsykoDragonreen: A Pyramidhead ornament draggin a candy cane. I'd seriously would want one of these myself. ^^

THE PLUSHIE GIFTS

SlyCooperWierdo45: A Sly Cooper plushie; man I bet they'd make a mint if they'd actually make these things. ^^
Jekkal: Her own Jekkal lombax fursona in plushie form. Lombax plushes would rule. ^^

CherieStar: A Sarnie plushie sitting their looking rather blank'; but most plushies are in their own right. XD
Shaz: Danni Dingo plushie representing the fastest and among the coolest dingos alive. As a bonus, a Cody ornament hangs over her head. (cody is the former Dingodile.)

...Oh and next to the NeoYi Card are the milk and cookies for Santa. They're long gone by now.

Phew, gear shift. Move on to pic two in the top right hand corner.

SANTA'S COMING
Midorii-Kiri: A Lesser but truly great Belmont (not from the actual CV series) is driving a great sleigh to deliver gifts; Santa Belmont.
Kitsune-Knight: A mecha fox takes place of the sleigh to deliver the presents in onw night just liek that. Seriously, with the exploding population you need a faster sleigh now.
KookyBat: The sleigh is also driven by two tiny dragons; one of which is a red long dragon reprsenting the love of dragons Kooky has.

THE CAROLERS (singing in the Snow)

SylentNyte: Fitting name for a fitting time. Her female rendition of Felix the Cat (Note the magic bag down near her feet) singing her heart out. Probably sounds better than the original Felix.

And before we go any further; I'd like to point out how much everyone I mentioned so far means to me. Everyone I had listed is truly a great friend and a close person to talk to. Some of you are very new I understand that; and I still would like to get know you all better.

This final picture, in the bottom right corner, represents perhaps some of my closest friends here at Deviantart and in real life. and are definite best friends of mine in real life who I got to know very well. This next batch represents those are like family to me I have not yet met in real life and want to. Like brothers and sisters and all above great comrades to be with.

So without furthar ado; I give you the final Holiday picture.

SHARING THE LOVE

That's the picture. Yes it was late but better late than never. And if you didn't make it I am sorry.

I drew 50 people and I am only trying harder to make sure everyone can fit; or make them bigger. =-p

Hope everyone had a great Christmas or Holiday in general; I know I did. ^_^

Enjoy the new year; the year of the Boar: MY Year. ^_^
