I had such an absolute blast participating in this event last year, and I cannot wait to get back into the spirit of the season, and, y'know, can't wait to just get back into being active in the community/server itself again after a recent hiatus. I adore gift-giving and adore surprises, so if you're my Secret Santa, please know: I will absolutely love any art you gift, whether you made it yourself, traded for it, or commissioned it from another artist, and you really can't go wrong! I'm making this wishlist for anyone who prefers having a little bit of guidance to narrow down the options, but you absolutely should not feel limited by what's listed here; these are just some ideas off the top of my head, but, again: feel free to disregard this list entirely and just go for whatever catches your eye or strikes your fancy!! 

(The only real limit to this is that I would like to stick to digital art only, please (or vouchers are of course fine if you prefer that!); I'm in-between real life moves and can't accept physical art at this time, and unfortunately I am nowhere near organized enough on any of my characters at the moment to know what would work for them as far as code or writing goes.)

Anyway, without further ado:

Looking for character suggestions? Anyone WITHOUT the "wip" tag is fair game! So basically, anyone listed here+. On that list, you'll see a mix of newbies I haven't gotten around to buying art for just yet and others who have 15+ pieces because I'm obviously addicted to buying them art (and that won't stop anytime soon! lol) -- so, seriously: you genuinely cannot go wrong with anyone on that list!! Still want me to highlight a few options? Can do! Jasper+ and Milan+ are my most consistent obsessions. Hudson+, Joey+, and Thānriel+ are all newbies who haven't gotten much love yet. Same with Bowie+.

Feeling something Anthro or Human instead of Feral? Awesome!! Draz+ is my only human option, but I've got Jasper+, Milan+, and Nokanhoui+ for Anthros. One or two others also have the "Anthro" tag but don't have any Anthro art yet; if you really wanna draw them as Anthro, feel free to offer that as a voucher or see if Chevy (and/or literally anyone else in the server!) can pass on a secret message to me, asking me to update a specific character's page with more details on their personality and anthro form. I'm happy to do so! **I do ask that you please avoid creating new Anthro or Human forms for any character that does not have the "Anthro" tag on their page; I'd strongly prefer my feral-only characters (which does include my fursona, sorry!) to remain feral. 

Want to draw multiple characters interacting? Sure thing: all of the Spooks+ live in the same universe, so any of them can be drawn together (or with any of your own Spooks, if you have a Munk Spook yourself!). Bowie+ is a Boguinea and can be drawn with any other Shantyland creatures you or others may have. Bella+ and this pegasus who still needs a name omg+ are dating and so can absolutely be drawn together, couple-y poses or not. Want to do something with your own 'sona? Feel free to have them interact with Fiction+. 

Wondering what types of art I love most? Again, I'll be genuinely happy no matter what I receive -- I love so many different styles and types of art, and I'll appreciate everything from large art to tags to chibis to icons! Want to know one of my absolute favorite things, though? I absolutely adore experimental pieces, so if you've got an idea and want to run wild with it, or if you've been itching to try out a new painting style, go for it! (The only character I advise caution on is Cache+, who is still 100% available for experimental pieces, but who does have some important notes on his profile page re: color schemes and backgrounds/settings to keep in mind.)

Wondering if there's any kind of art I'd list as "lowest priority"? I have to admit that symmetrical headshots/busts aren't really my thing. I don't know why, my brain just gets really tripped up on the symmetry (even for characters with asymmetrical designs/markings) and doesn't usually handle it too well. I'm also unreasonably anxious about copyright issues with photography, so I would like to avoid photo-based moodboards if at all possible (moodboards of items/doodles/environmentals that are drawn entirely by you and so don't have any possible copyright issues, though, are A-okay!!). Otherwise, everything is fair game! The only type of piece that might work better as a voucher, though, is character reference sheets; I'm a little picky with them just because I usually have specific ideas about info or expressions I might want featured, is all.

Really want to get me a new character/design instead of just art for existing characters? That's cool, but please know I sometimes really struggle to connect to characters, so please don't do this if you wouldn't be okay with me possibly trading or re-gifting the character in the future if I end up not being able to connect with them. You can look at my characters or those on my Favorites list to get a feel for what I'm usually drawn to; Munk designs frequently make the cut, if you're looking for the safest bet. I've also got a backlog of DnD character ideas I've been meaning to eventually get commissioned, some of which are more specific while others are just suuuper basic ideas, so if you're wanting to design a new humanoid character, there's a lot of room there, too. Again, just feel free to have someone pass a secret message to me over Discord and I'll happily throw together some ideas and vague outlines on a google doc or something that can be passed back over to you!
