Edit:
Neat to see all the different styles. Loving the flames on LifeisDANK's Chandelure, and that Archeops has sass

Damn Megapoketalecreed that is some seriously awesome art. You really rock! I honestly expected something ridiculous, like a Porygon with some silly Pyukumuku-type hands popping out, but a human with a Porygon head is seriously inspired. Love the pastel (?) work too, those extremely dynamic shadows give it a strong vintage edge. I'm definitely gonna use this as an avatar or something. I'm sure that both my friends who are fans of Jazz and my friends who are fans of Cool Porygon will enjoy it.

Was this supposed to be some kind of "A Big Guy For You" setup


Awesome work as usual everyone; I know I'm not that active on Smogon anymore but Secret Santa is always something I look forward to participating in every year so I'm glad to be part of it once again. Have a Merry Christmas y'all! :heart:
 

man, i am terrible at backgrounds so I chose to focus on the action itself, but i still wish i'd started earlier to proper shade it. still, it was a great request and i had fun doing it!!!

also: initially i was going for a more humorous tone, but since I didnt know who i was drawing for, i decided to go for a straight approach. here's my initial sketch anyway cuz i think it's funny

The traditionally weird Hulavuta request strikes yet again! :O
This year's rendition looks particularly beautiful, huge complements to Megapoketalecreed for completing that request in the best way imaginable. Cool Porygon's head blends into the cover art so seamlessly both in posture and expression. He is a true jazz artist. :'D

My personal favorites this year have to be the two raptor drawings, I'm not even mad that the pairing was so obviously rigged. Never knew I needed that Archeops training art in my life so badly until I saw it.

Thanks, Cretacerus
I love the drawing
Glad you like it! Not sure how you got that rather unconventional idea for your Secret Santa request, but those are usually the most fun to work on. It definitely was in this case.
I'm also relieved to hear that at least some people spotted the Easter egg in that drawing. ;)

And last but not least, thank you very much Moon for the beautiful Christmas scenery with Tyrunt and Amaura! For those who can't see the attachment in LiD's post, here it is:

Trace back the footsteps in the background, and you will find out that Tyrunt got no time for foolish activities like building snowmen with Amaura. He's only in for the presents. :D

I enjoy combining my wide range of tastes in the strangest ways possible, though I'm glad to hear my requests have now officially become a tradition.
