✨ a few notes:

Gifts must be worth at least 5 Gold before adding any bonuses.
You must have at least one accepted Anathema character to participate.
All gifts must center on accepted Anathema characters.
You will have the option to give or receive art or writing or either as a gift!

Hello, it seems like the gold count is a little bit off ':> The correct breakdown for this piece would look something like this:

+3 shaded colored bust, +1 other character bonus, +4 complete colored bg = 8 x 2 Gift Bonus = 16 + 10 Secret Santa bonus = 26 gold

Please let me know when the description has been tweaked, and I'll add this to the bank asap <3

Hello, it seems like the gold count is just a liiittle bit off! For this piece, the corrected beakdown would be the following:

+4 colored fb, +2 other character bonus, +3 colored outfit = 9 x 2 Gift bonus = 18 + 10 Secret Santa bonus = 28 gold

Please let me know when the count has been tweaked, and I'll add this to the bank asap ':>

BUGH0RSE

It should be fixed!!

Hymy

Yuss, thank you! ALSO i noticed just now that the shading was missing from my corrected count, apologies. I made a note on the bank submission about the new total being 32 gold as the result of that <3

Feel free to change the +4 colored fb to +6 colored shaded fb, but definitely don't have to since I missed it last time (making the total 11 x 2 = 22 + 10= 32). ':>

BUGH0RSE

empiredog sorry for the tag but is it possible to change the gold count again? ^^”

2 (fullbody) + 2 (color) +2 (shading) + 1 (simple animation) = 7 x 2 = 14 + 10 = 24

Hymy

Hello, it looks like the gold count is missing from the image's description ':> While that's being added, feel free to also add +1 accessories (antlers) as well as +3 colored outfit bonuses to the breakdown, making the new total 32 gold.

Just poke me when the tweaks have been made, and I'll add this to the bank <3

leverage

Thanks for catching those! I might be missing something, but I don't believe I can add to the image description, though, as the art isn't attached to my characters.

Hymy

Ah in those cases, the gold count can be posted as a comment in the art piece's own comment section, but I can also make a note on the bank sheet if that doesn't work ':) Let me know either way, and I'll see that 32 gold added to your total one way or another.

leverage

Would you be able to make a note on the bank sheet? It doesn't seem to be letting me comment. I super appreciate you helping me figure this out!

Hymy

No problem! It's been added to the bank now (and realized at the last minute that you get the +2 other character bonus as well haha, so 36 gold in total) <3
