The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Holy cow! I knew immediately that Cake did mine, but I had no idea how. Then I was looking through the pictures that I have of my Dad, remembered that I posted a couple of them in the snapshot thread (probably over a year ago), and that must have been the reference. It's amazing, Cake, I absolutely love it. That was a great idea and I can't wait to show it to my dad.
I'm glad you like it, Iruka!
Also I wanted to tell you that I think you are cool for having drawn the proper number of legs in the right places on your dragopillar.
ZOMG Thank you Santa, and Santa's for that matter. I know I've seen the style around, but for the life of me, my Santa's name is escaping me for some reason. Either way, awesome!
I have now decided to attempt to write the script "Silent Night!".
If I had to guess who did mine, I wouldn't know, but since I have CONNECTIONS, I am going to say thanks glad hatter! mully says she loves the chest hair.
The writing is a little scrawly, so you might still not be able to read it. Here are the things that are written:
egg

eggs appear at high altitudes in coniferous trees, usually during summer
texture aids adherence to leaf (woops, meant to write wood)
dragopillar
herbivorous, though may prey on competing insects
prefers to roam at night
true legs-[ foreleg midleg hindleg
abdominal prolegs
spiracles
(highly venomous head capsule)
osmeterium
thorax-[ prothorax mesothorax metathorax
length approx. 8-9”, grows to 5-6’
tail spine
chrysalis
hooks to small branch of parent tree, incubates approx. 2 yrs
cremaster
abdomen
some spiracles remain
wing
antenna
massive morphological change of head and limbs
protected by shell, emits enough heat to burn
fully mature Iruka dragonis (aka: Girl in a Dragon suit)
complex segmented appearance
moves great distances, but returns to home mountain seasonally
aggressive tactics not yet observed in nature

Dang, these are awesome! And someone tackled shanshui for me - that's nuts! I haven't even tried it, I just admire it... so lovely. The Akira reference for Nibcrom is awesome, too. Wooo for all the artists!
Tynic, if what they say is true and you painted mine... you are awesome. That is the last time I let Franklin drive a spaceship!
Lyrium - I had to do a bit of creepy internet stalking, I remembered you had posted the photos sometime back with something along the lines of "my dad is the awesomest" so I thought you might like a drawing. If you have a higher res version of that photo, or any photo (maybe something with a collared shirt?) I think I can do a better job, it was a pretty small photo to work from!

Sent my shiz for The_Glad_Hatter. Sorry I'm a little past the deadline, but I'm glad I was. So much happier with this drawing then the couple I did before it. I still rushed it though, oh well!
Grenn was basically a picture perfect match for my hints this year, and I was not disappointed.
Thanks so much!
You are very welcome sir!
I am very pleased with mine -- knife-wielding hotdog is basically the greatest. BUT I am still struggling to tell who my SS is....... I have my suspicions. Thank you whoever you are. :^:

So awesome! Was it Fug? Cyber?
Whoever it is did a phenomenal job and I can't thank you enough! I keep giggling everytime I look at it
As a former Christmas winner, I congratulate you.
(These are all crazy good, people.)
Sorry about not being done with mine yet, almost there!
My Portfolio Site
everyone did such an outstanding jerb.
Haven't figured out who you are yet but I'll try to make some detective work to find out
Thanks so much to my santa! You can't hide, my slueth skills will find you soon.
EDIT: It's really hard to guess, but is it...
Agreed.
Grenn was basically a picture perfect match for my hints this year, and I was not disappointed.
Thanks so much!
As an aside, the fact that anyone could momentarily confuse Cyber's art with mine is a pretty extraordinary Christmas present in and of itself.

Good job all around people.
I'm not 100% sure, but someone said melting doll and that seems about right to me. So thankyou md! Best christmas!
Thanks EWA! (am I right?)
