Some of the art I did a this year's Christmas presents...

...Not that any of them are particularly Christmas-themed, but here's some of the random art I did as Christmas presents. (Um, yes, one of these days I'll get around to doing an actual, y'know...update post. But, um...this is not that day. Oops?) So, in no particular order:




So, the sibs have been bugging me (and pestering, whining, cajoling, guilting, etc) to read HS for AGES! And I have meant to, just hadn't gotten around to it. And then finally in Nov. I read the first act but, well, the first act can be a bit slow, not to mention seriously WTF?! and well, I never got around to reading more, much to their LOUDLY EXPRESSED annoyance. And so finally, I decided as a bit of an Xmas surprise, I would read all of it and then do some art as a gift. So, a little over a week before Xmas, I did just that, which, for anyone who's read it and knows just how LONG it is, knows that's no small feat (especially since I was working and doing other Xmas presents as well...) So, these Chibis were their gift...and also my way of letting them know I'd read it, which I managed to not to blurt out (it was HARD, HS has some bloody intense moments!!!), so they didn't know until they opened the file.

Anyway, as might be obvious from the subject matter...I kinda adore Karkat! I mean, how can you NOT? Also, he's ridiculously fun to draw as a chibi...^_-





C'mon, we all know it's what the knights want! Or...y'know, are already getting...^_- And also...um...yes, tentacles...if you know the London meet up group, I'm sure this will come as a surprise, to well, NO ONE. For everyone else...err...it's all [livejournal.com profile] takadainmate's fault!! Okay, really, it's pretty safe to assume that any time I draw tentacles can be traced back to her, or her partner in crime, [livejournal.com profile] cienna. And speaking of them, that brings me to my last pic...





For Xmas, I tried to combine two of their biggest kinks...^_- And further discovered that chibi tentacle monsters are kinda ridiculously fun to draw....^_-

Homestuck chibis *squeee*

The pairing grid one made me laugh. Jade's giggle! Terezi/Dave fistbump! Karkat's facepalm! :D

Hee, glad you like. The pairing grid thing in HS itself was one of the things that cracked me up the most so I couldn't help doing something with it ^_^ And, also, Karkat, HOMG I LUV HIM! so of course I had to make him face his greatest fears...^_-

This post just confuses me.

I DID like your Christmas card, though. Alex and I both chuckled our way through it.

...Lol, yeah, I guess none of them would make much sense without knowing the fandom/context...

Glad about the Xmas card, and it was so nice to receive yours as well! ^_^ *huggles*

Yay Gnine is into Homestuck now and will draw ALL the chibis! ALL OF THEM!!

Seriously, they are adorable and I love them. :) The third is so perfect, both in how the pairings are really going and Karkat's (and John's) reaction to them. Also "a clown is my friend" Karkat looks so squishable and I want to hug him so bad. <3

LOL, not sure how much art I'll do for HS...I find the fandom a bit...overwhelming...but they were a lot of fun to do chibi. So glad you like 'em!

...I found myself wanting to hug Karkat at least 80% of the time when reading the comic, so...yeah...that wasn't entirely accidental ^_- He is in some serious need of hugs! ^_- Oh Karkat, I LOVE YOU!

They're still adorable. :D

Hee, thanks. I really should do more Merlin chibis, they're fun to chibify...^_^ Hope things are going well *huggles*

Knight orgies are always welcome (and cooed over. And adored.) The real question is who ordered a bed big enough and how much did he blush whilst doing so... ;)

*snicker* I had not considered that, a VERY good question ^_-...bet it was Gawain, he has the least sense of embarrassment. He probably enjoyed watching the shop keeper squirm...^_-

Yes, Gwaine would be a good choice for all things relating to the embarrassment of others. Also I can't imagine Percival having the nerve to even go in the shop...without the backup of Elyan ;)
