Hello everybody!
I'm entering this cool project I read about on Tazio-Bettin's journal some time ago, it's called Elf Christmas Wishlist 2014 and it was created by lovely
!This event is similar to the Secret Santas you've seen around dA, but... you just need to make a list of your wishes and share it with the rest of the community!
Once you wrote down your list and submitted it, please do not forget to link it back to saniika on her original journal, so that people can find your list easily and maybe... help you with one, or more, of your wishes:
<da:thumb id="492240944"/>
If you want to grant anyone's wish, please be sure to contact them privately so that they can update their list and say that the wish was granted by someone, to avoid doubles!
INSTRUCTIONS:Step 1.
Make a post in your dA journal and make sure that you include these instructions. Copypasting is simple. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple gifts ("I'd love a picture or icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for this DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want. They can be tangible things or even intangible, abstract things like happiness or health for yourself or significant others.
If you wish for real-life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
Step 2.
Surf around your friends list (or friends friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. I recommend using the same journal title so as to make the search easier. And now here's the important part:
If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if for example you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift card you won't use, or anything -do it.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
Step 3.

My art in a book!Hello guys!
How are you? I hope you're doing ok!
I've just come back from a week of holidays in Paris, with my boyfriend, to celebrate our 3rd anniversary, and I'm back to work.
I really needed this few days of break, since I'm a bit stressed by all the work I have to do, but... now I'm full of energies again!
I've had some problems with my laptop too, but now things should be ok and luckily I'll soon be able to show you guys a lot of cool new things!
So, here's a quick list of what I'm going to work on in the next days:

We were commissioned to organize a flash mob with SNK cosplayers during the convention, to shoot the whole thing and edit it into a super cool video to show on DAM's+SNK site! Even if we onl
Happy Holidays, I love you all,
Yours
