Honestly Samster never really dresses up in red because everyone calls her "Elf" and poke fun of her because it's not the holiday time (what dicks). Like she already had issues with people poking fun at her ears, that just made it kind of worse. Although she will happily dress in red around the holidays since the locals can't say shit about her wearing red on that time of year.

This was originally gonna be my for the forums icon, but... Not gonna lie, it's not my proudest moment, especially with the teeth shading. Like I'm okay with this version because the teeth shading is less ass, but the one before it made her look like a fuckin shark of Christmas. As cool as a Christmas Shark sounds, it did not at all look good with Samster's mug. Not saying she uggy, but I never wanted to picture her being a fuckin shark. In fact she kind of has a phobia of sharp teeth and also Sharks.

Also yes you are see the Bob Ross mood background since it was made to be the background of this piece. I will admit that my character art vs the background art here is noticeable. Like you got a nice painted background and then you get this cartoony otter freak with the extra thicc lines and everyone is confused. Granted most animation had the backgrounds drastically lineless to show it's a background, but idk here.

Though this piece does have a good portion of positives. Firstly I like the costume design. Might make a full body picture of that. It is a cute outfit. Secondly I wanted to show off the FLUFF textures on the collar, hats, and a bit around the sleeves. Thirdly shading practice, it's not the best, not the worst, though it's coming along alright.

So feel free to tell me ya thoughts on it. I would really appreciate that, you'd have no idea. Be free to be blunt and honest about this. Because by god I am not gonna improve is no one is honest here.
