December pinup - Holiday Evening [attached]

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I'm not a portly old man in a red suit, and the only toys I've brought are porn... up to you if that's good or bad. Make your own 'naughty or nice' jokes. Or don't. Just enjoy the scene.

I'm out for a few days at my relatives' for the holiday, and I busted my chops HARD to get this done before I left, let me tell you. I'm really happy with this final piece. Probably one of the best all year, in my own reflection. I just learned a lot about lighting and shading from this and how it can treat colours. I didn't want to skimp on quality at all, so I did what I could with her outfit and figure, background too. Fingers crossed that you guys enjoy it all the same.

Vikna is a rough and tumble military hardass, but she's not 2D; downtime is important! Fireplaces are largely aesthetic of course, in the galaxy, and the screen/HUD on it behind her can adjust things like light, colour, heat passthrough, etc. so she can sit up close and not burn her tail off. She'd be the most likely one to cuddle up in bed and read a book with hot cocoa in an oversized shirt, but she does have fun dressing up in cute things.

The PSD file will be full-sized(will start to do that from now on if I can) and have the ability to turn some of these on and off. Also put whiskers on a layer for her, but decided to leave them off for the 'default'. 8 HD versions attached.
