For starters: THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CHRISTMAS. His character's name is Noel, SO THERE. Those of you struggling vainly to make a Christmas connection beyond the name, I challenge you to find one pixel of green to go with the red.

Anyways, this is a random-surprise-gift picture for the boyfriend. I would wager that he has no idea that I did this, so it's kind of a surprise merry New Years'-mas gift.

I am retardedly happy with how well this turned out. I love love LOVE drawing armor, and for sure I have an obsession with big collars and shoulder accoutrements bordering on fetishistic, so this was right up my alley. Hopefully this is the start of me getting back into drawing and posting more regularly; I've been a bit terrible about that these days.

To the people I owe art: Patience! I'm a-workin' on it, I swear. Had to do this first, though.
