crystal maiden in darkest dungeon style, even with fancy name ‘the witch of cursed cold’

rough old lina animation i started a few years ago and got sidetracked on. probably not going to finish it at this point so here it is!

happy 7.07!

Picked up DotA with a flatmate again. Still horribly apprehensive about playing PvP but boy if I don’t love a lot of the designs.

Venomancer was the first one I picked up, along with Slardar, Slark and Viper. I love a lot of the monster characters. And three of my boys got VU’s.

Some commissions I’ve done for Hurricane Maria relief. I’m still taking them, details here!

DOTA SECRET SANTA 2K17

ITS OCTOBER Y’ALL YOU KNOW WHAT’S UP

For the fifth year running, fasten your seatbelts and extract your pens and pencils from under the sofa/behind your ears/from your pencil cases like civilized human beings !

As always, even if you can’t join in, we’d be really grateful if you could signal boost by re-blogging! I’ll also be cross-posting to my Twitter *here* if that’s more your jam, please like and RT~

What’s a Secret Santa?

(gratuitously copypasta’d from last year’s post)  For those who have never done a Secret Santa before, the way it works is you submit a gift request, which goes into a pool which is then randomised. The randomised requests are then handed out to the participants.

So basically, its Mystery Gift! Everyone draws/writes a Dota-themed gift for someone. You won’t know who it’s for, and you won’t know who is doing yours!  Then at Christmas we hand out the completed gifts anonymously to whomever they belong, via email. 

Sounds good, where do I sign?

Send your email applications right here!   ->  dotasecretsanta@gmail.com

What do I write in my  application email?

1. Your name / tumblr tag - a link to your blog would also be helpful so we know who you are and can contact you if emails not working or something.

2. Preferred gift rating.  NSFW requests are totally okay as long as they are not offensive/racist/sexist but if you’d like something NSFW, please also provide a SFW alternative request as not everyone is comfortable drawing such content. If you don’t mind receiving NSFW but would prefer not to submit it, please tell us and vice versa.

3. Your actual request!  If you prefer shipping/non shipping, please tell me.

Examples of requests:

- “Invoker eating cake whilst wearing a santa hat”

- “(character X) and (character Y) frickin’ the dang frack like there’s no tomorrow…. while wearing santa hats! SFW Alternative: they’re not fricking the frack they’re just playing Twister at a party”

(Disclaimer: Santa hats are optional)

4. Whether you would be able to fill an extra gift if needed.  Hopefully I won’t need to call on anyone, but in case of emergency this would be very much appreciated.
