Heya. This year was a tad different in NG Secret Santa terms, as this year you had to be scouted to partake in the event, and i felt a bit sad because of it, cuz im not scouted to begin with. :( But thankfully, a user named @LegoLaSS created Group E, thus allowing unscouted artists like yours truly to participate in the event. :D (although unofficially, but still.) Anyways, this time i got to draw Daklil, a cute living scarecrow OC courtesy of @SomeDoodles, and while there's no corn whatsoever (which i presume is the OC's favorite food) in this artwork, it's still set in a stereotypical farm nonetheless. (i really need to get better at drawing backgrounds asap) Speaking of the artwork, drawing it was a real rush (to me at least) as it only took me 8-9 hours in a single day to create.

Also, i've recorded a timelapse which showcases a sped up process of the artwork's creation, thanks to a neat function CSP has that i've used for the first time while making this artwork.

Now then, with all that outta the way, i'd like to wish you all a merry (belated) Artmas! and a HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024!!! ;D (i'll take my leave now)
