Drat, missed this one....hope you guys will be posting the art here so I can see!
I finally have a start on this, I hadn't been able to come up with any sort of sketch that I liked then at work the other day one just basically drew itself. Really excited about it now.
That which you manifest is before you.
When are we showing our finished pictures? At Christmas I hope? I don't like the "post it whenever you're done" Secret Santas...

I know I'm not part of the whole thing but I would give bigger window than that due the time zone differences and all that. Something like 22nd-27th just cause let's say someone on west coast of US would get someone from Australia it would basically mean a whole day earlier or later. Also there is countries where presents are opened in 24th and someone figured to post the picture in 24th morning of their time it would be still 23rd possibly on West coast of US... Just throwing it out there. Also I do know some people don't really want to be on to post stuff on Christmas though I think that might not be the case here by thinking how hardcore internet addicts most of us are.
Lea members I have met: Fuzzy, Naline, Boos, Ruska, Tima, Talfasi, JambaB, Sharifu♥, Vidan, Muruwa, Taneli, Shadow, nathalie, Lucy , Amaryllis, This Land, Daniel, Lion King Stu, King Simba, Nephilim, KanuTGL, Lion_King_300, 2DieFR, Kenai, A-non-a-mus, Eva Janus, dlb138, Levin, HasiraKali, Revo, Simba The Enigma, Azerane and Xacheraus.
Obviously if they can't make the day they can't make the day. I don't mind if they're a day or two early or behind because obviously people might be doing something on christmas or around christmas. It's more of a don't post it on december 1st or you're silly and annoying and it's not christmas yet

*cough* Just a reminder!

Here it is now Christmas Eve and since that is when we Scandinavians celebrate, I'm posting mine now!
My drawn name was... Sharifu!
Sharifu and Sadiki cuddling up next to, I guess, a cosy fire somewhere... outside... xP I wanted to play with the lighting a bit and I love a blue/warm orange colour combo, haha. I hope you like it none the less, and I hope you both have a wonderful Christmas!

Kanu that looks awesome!
Avatar drawn by Azerane - thank you! :3
I shouldn't post this until tomorrow, as technically it's not properly Christmas until tomorrow, but it's almost Christmas Day in Australia now, so here goes...
Mine was Azerane! Here's her characters Tadellos and Jayle, casually playing around in the snow. If lions can exist in snow, that is.
It's not a great background, but the main focus was on the characters, so I'm quite proud of how those turned out, hehe. I hope you like it, Azzy, and I wish you a very Merry Christmas.

Daawww! So cute, both drawings ^^ Great work, KS and Kanu
I just had a Christmas dinner with my family and it was time to give presents, and my SS drawing is for... Kanu!
I decided to try my hand with Charlie this time. I hope you like it, I wish you the Merriest Christmas

Wow, they look awesome guys!!
KS, thank you oh so very much, they look like they're having so much fun
I had ClearGreenWater, hyenas are always a challenge and I drew her character Tafauti as somewhat of a blend of TLK and my style of hyena (whatever that is) In any case, I really hope you like it! I keep looking at it thinking that I've forgotten something important, but it's not coming to me, haha. Oh, also, I originally wanted to colour it traditionally since I sketched it on paper first, but I had a reason I switched to digital instead... though of course I can't remember that either, too much Christmas cheer perhaps?

Awwww, Leor! I love your picture ^__^ So well drawn - it looks just like him - and I love the colours and the background and how the image just represents who he is and... Ah! Thank you so much, this made my morning for sure
Yours is lovely too, Azzy! The shading and colour are gorgeous!
As is yours, KS, as always! I love their faces!
Secret Santa reveals are always so exciting; I've been stalking this thread for the last couple of days :P

My person was Dare. Now, usually when it comes to Secret Santa pictures, I never know and have a really hard time deciding whether to do a Christmas themed picture, or just a nice general picture.
I did not have that difficulty this time--PURE INSPIRATION! >D
...Of course, I had grand plans for some real dramatic lighting and shadow, unfortunately though I never learned how to do that and after screwing up twice on attempting them and having to re-color Fujo a whopping 3 times, just....*imagine* dramatic shadows and ignore the white balance, lol. I saved the line art, I might color Fujo on her own once we're clear of the holidays without background distortion, I'm proud of the line art.

Wow, great pictures all!
*blinkblinks*
CGW, honestly, I didn't expect anyone would attempt drawing Fujo because she has so many design elements goin' on. You've proven me wrong though, and she looks FANTASTIC! Thank you!
Hehe, she almost looks like she's thinking about hurling that fireball at Santa, and it would be perfectly in-character for her to do so.
For my secret santa, I had King Simba.
I went through, like...12 sketches before my fiance bopped me on the head and reminded me of the KISS principle.
It's not much, but hopefully you like it...and since I felt guilty about only doing a Katai portrait, you get a bonus Namabi chibi. Enjoy!
