Catching up on the calendar. What fun!

That ale label is just great. Love the animated sequence, what a wonderful interpretation of those demons. As for #19 I'm at a bit of a loss as you what scene that depicts, though I sure would love to read a comic drawn in that style.
I have to be careful of getting too jealous of the talent of display here.

That said, thanks for the kind words for Dev'ad Andn Tol's early X-mas gift.

Choosing to draw Clip is very bold because everybody hates him, but I like the concept behind this depiction.

Who said only loved characters were allowed? :apt: Besides, I personally actually like Clip. He's such a little shit and a mess of a would-be villain, it makes him surprisingly interesting.

Clip is just misunderstood.

Puck and PLUGO both have done amazing work on #21 and #22, respectively. The color scheme for #21 is perfect, and I love the feel created by the irregular border. And the spiral chain pattern is mesmerizing. The hopeless determination of #22 leaves a hole in my heart, but

Great stuff guys!

I'm loving em all. Puck, Clip is a silent favorite for quite a few people here. Nimander and him might be bros in the making. I think in future books He could be fun to read.

Plugo and Dejan tend to nail all the best scenes. I am jealous.

And lastly CN, I get it and I like it! EGwene really knows how to link up ideas!

Thanks Guys for hosting the Calander! I'm already working on next years contribution. Hopefully i can get a dizzying 2nd submission in. (Honestly CN, you're amazing to shell out 5!)

I would like to add everything to my malazan collection on DA, will you guys have them on the DA wiki page and/or MAG?

Didn't thougt about that until now, but maybe it is a good idea to make a malazan advent calendar 2016 collection. Most of the artist are on DA and maybe the others who don't have a DA account and also don't want to make one would allow me to upload them. With a text identifing them as the creator and a link to their homepage of course :apt:

A big congratulations to the wiki crew and the others artists who took part this year.
Turned out great again :apt:



Dolmen, to be fair - I had Karsa finished in October, Kindly was done early November
and Spindle was a WIP from mid-year sometime that only took an hour or two to finish.

Yes, congratulations to all 13 100% equally talented artists this year. Not a one stands out as better -- OR WORSE -- than the others, I think we can all agree.

And a massive thank you to everyone who contributed. Without you there would be no Calendar!

It was a bit 'close' at times, getting something posted on the day but those amazing images were worth the effort :apt:

Feel free to use those images, I had a lot of fun working on them, though I find myself wishing I had as much time with the later contributions as I did with the first one. Watching these images pop up over December has been a delight and in some cases making me want to examine the books again even more closely.
I'll happily admit that there are contributors on this calendar whose talent exceed my own and that's motivation to "up my game."
Have a great holiday+newYear+any other celebrations

What would be the Malazan equivalent to X-mas anyway?

The season of rot maybe? :apt:

Thank you Plugo. I will link all the images to your website. :popo:

@Nom: Posted Image. But I think we have only two options. Your forum page or only mentioned.
