Well hey! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, etc! It’s easily my favorite time of year. It’s also the end of the year! It’s been a good year for Bu art commissions! Bu art, in general, really. No commissions this time, just some seasonably appropriate stuff. So let’s get started!

First, we have the annual holiday card courtesy of Neekko (and myself! For flat-coloring, anyways XD)

Does this card image look familiar? I think there’s a reason why! This is our TENTH Christmas doing our cards. Ten cards in total that we’ve sent out to friends, fans, and everyone in-between that wanted us to send some holiday cheer. :3 Yes, this is a remake of our very first card from 2008. Amazing and incredible that we have done this for that long. Time flies… and perhaps that’s not always so great. XD But hey, here we are. Neekko did a splendid job taking the original idea and showing some major improvement in those epic art skillz. >:3 Thanks to those who signed up for our card. Whether or not you did, you can also see it now posted by Neekko… right HERE!

Next is a sticker set Neekko and I sent out with the cards!

Stickers! Neekko‘s cute chibi Bu and Nar are in top form as always! They’re both relentlessly cute. Even I had to take a couple copies of the stickers to keep for myself. X3 I hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed giving them out/showing them off. Thanks to Neekko for always going the extra mile on the holidays. x3 <3

Last, we have a Christmasy pic from BarashBenski!

Oh hey! This is an adorable surprise. I don’t often get (and would never ask) for gift art, but it’s such a pleasure to get some once and awhile. And especially when it’s this cute! I think Barash nailed the look with their expressions! I humbly appreciate the look of Bu. x3 Bu and Nar seem to not be strangers to a mistletoe. This pic also helped fluff up this Bu-Blog entry a bit, so win-win! lol. Thanks to Barash for such a lovely gift. <3

That wraps up this blog entry! This likely also wraps up 2017 on the Bu-Blog too. I still have pics to post so keep an eye out for those!! For now, I hope you have a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Happy New Year! See ya in 2018. ;3
