Thank you so much, pigobest!!! :D Your comment is twice a compliment for me, because I didn't think about how he should look like; I only knew I didn't want the traditional old St. Clause because I prefer a little bit younger guys ... XD And for the second; at the tree I had to improvise a little bit, for the pearl-draggies weren't very good visible on it. Thousand hugs for you!! :)
Congratulations! You won the third place in my contest "12 contests for 12 months: December!"! Venture with a male subject is always risky because undoubtedly women's clothes, especially at Christmas time, have more impact. Nevertheless, this beautiful creation deserves a place on the podium in my opinion: first because it represents one of the most beautiful Christmas trees that I have seen on DD; second to the amount of small, beautiful details that contains! Great job!
Oh, she's at the outside of the window ... but sadly I didn't see her since 2 weeks - maybe she's in hibernation XD. And insane: it's absolutely okay - being "normal" is boring! :P
I admire your ability to have a spider as a pet without running away and screaming in terror. xD & we're all just a wee bit insane (some of us are just better at hiding it)!! xD <3
