Hello, Friends! Merry Christmas, or whatever it is that you celebrate. This is, quite honestly, my favorite time of the year. Sadly, not a very snowy Christmas for me, but it’s still festive and full of the usual traditions. :3 More traditions… new Bu Blog entry! I do apologize again that I haven’t posted really at all this month, but it’s been crazy and busy! Plus a fairly dry month for new Bu arts. HOWEVER… yes, I did get some new (and festive) images for you to enjoy right here, right now. ^3^

We start off with the big Christmas pic from Neekko!

Bu and Nar visit Santa!!! A few people may already be acquainted with this image. This is this year’s Bu and Neek Christmas card! Neek did most of the work, but I did help with the coloring and Nar’s sweater. He has an awful new sweater every year, and THAT tradition will never die. XD This is definitely one of my favorite cards because it’s a clever piece with a nice demented twist. Poor Santa has to now endure this duo. LOL. Love his eyes too. Really colorful card this year. I hope you did sign up to get the card in the mail. If you did, hope you got it or will get it soon! :3 Neekko did a swell job on this baby, and next year’s card will rock even more, I am sure. See it posted HERE and HERE!

And now for a more adult twist, ala Guytoonist! ^^

So with this one, Guy was kind enough to include Bu in his pile of Advent Calendar character dudes for this Christmas. It of course had a jolly holiday theme with the gifts, hat, and… yes mistletoe. XD Thanks a lot for this one, Guy! He did an excellent job at really touching upon Bu’s pervvy love of everything, yes even Christmas-time. He has very full… kissy lips in this image too. XD That’s Bu for you, I suppose. Thank you, Mr. Guy, for a wonderful Christmas Bu! You can see this one posted HERE!!

Finally, we have one super gift from Katie-W!

This really was a treat. These are actually bookmarks!! X3 This went in part with a gift exchange we both did and I gotta say, Katie really beat us on what we sent. These are fun bookmarks of Bu and Nar enjoying what they enjoy the most. FOOD! >:3 The colors and lines on this traditional (not digital) work is so clean and beautiful. I don’t even think the scan you see here even captures it. Really lovely work. Neekko and I are very thankful of Katie‘s work. Thanks so much for this, if you’re seeing this entry. XD <3 I hope everyone likes it too, fun and colorful stuff here. Useful too! *Has in a book now* You can see it posted (along with the other awesome bookmarks that were made) right HERE!

That’s probably all I am up for at this moment! I am typing this at 2:00am on Christmas morning. XD It’s posted later than that I was just trying to plan ahead. A lot is going on! I have more images for you to enjoy, but I am going to stretch them out into a couple entries! You’ll be seeing them very soon, my sweet darlings. >;3

That’s all, I’ll be back before New Years for a final entry for 2011. Have a safe and Merry Christmas, guys! <3
