Due to a sort of unforeseen circumstance, I might get mine in a few hours late! I'll try to get it sent in asap.

due to poor planning, plus a sudden, just decided last week, visit home, I'm also going to be late by about a day. I already sent an explanation to Starswifter and I apologize to my subject.

Due to some confusion and misunderstandings, Leafolawl got removed from the event but still insisted on drawing the person that he would have been assigned.

So, from Leafolawl to QRS3000:

So I get two drawings this time? That is strange.

@Yehoshua

What was your inspiration for the sky/background? It looks really cool.
I see you drew the human in a rear 3/4 view. That's a hard angle for even me to draw.




@ Leafolawl

I honestly forgot what my character looked like when I drew him. :lol:

The background was an attempt at a sunrise.
The angle I attempted was to make him looking towards said sunrise.

The crappiness of the image is due to my lack of experience in drawing both humans and on my iPad.

@Star: so, I guess I was either Brent or Psyke, right?

Yes and no, because of a screw up on my part .. you might as well get the story.

Leaf asked me to confirm his confirmation again before the SDS would actually start, which I agreed to do ... and of course forgot (I did not note it somewhere). So I assigned you to him, and not two minutes after, I got an "angry" PM from Leaf that I forgot to confirm his confirmation and that he had intended to drop out because he did not have access to a scanner. Since Leaf's Santa had not yet opened his PM, I quickly cancelled that one, wrote a new one with you as target, removed Leaf from the event. I recieved yet again an "angry" PM from Leaf, stating that he intended to draw his target despite the lack of scanner, but this time I could not add him to the event again .. his old Santa had already seen the new PM :/

That is why you got two drawings, because of a mistake on my part (and because of Leaf beinging insistent :P).
yehoshua wrote:@Star: so, I guess I was either Brent or Psyke, right?
None of them :P

A quick update .. I haven't heard anything from Vespier Leo, and RandomGeekNamedBrent, Psykeout and Tha Housefox have all stated that they were going to be late.

I attempted to make up for being late by coloring and shading it. If you're gonna be late, be late in style, right? |D
Anyway, I'm really sorry, Yeho.

@Star: I'm sorry that you went through so much trouble. This shouldn't have happened.

@ Yehoshua You shouldn't beat yourself up over the drawing you did for me. You don't think I'm worried that I ruined the drawing of Kurowolfe's character? Are the colors right? Are the lines clean and crisp? Are the proportions right? Would the character do this or that? Have I made my point?

.. Sounds as if I should take a closer look at the result of the random picking than just checking whether anyone picked themselves ..
People are not supposed to get the same target several times in a row, like what happened to someone else in the SDS. Not that I can guarantee that it won't happen again, but I will do some "manual randomization" to lower the probability.

If I see my target, I will draw my target.
Also, I wasn't really angry if anyone took the "angry"s seriously. |D
I was just being a bit of a spazz, as per usual. |D

he didn't say in a row. his character is difficult to draw.
I feel better about being late since my target is also late with his drawing,
and Pea, I LOVE IT THANK YOU!!!
