Xmas 1 (Patreon)

Since 1990 or so I had my own Xmas/New Year pinup printed and I sent them to my friends and family by snailmail every single year. I actually liked the tradition I created for myself, even though it was always pretty hard to get a good enough design in time for the holidays. It took not only money but also a lot of effort to make it happen. However, since some years, as you all may have noticed, people rather send their holiday wishes by web, mail or social media. That's of course a sign of the times, but it started to increasingly feel like I was sending most of my cards into a black hole. I ignored that feeling for a while, but I think it's about time for me to accept that the end of an era has arrived and forget about my personal Xmas card in print. Too bad really.
I'll still try and paint the perfect Xmas card. This is just the first. I may have gotten lucky and painted the best with this, but I'll still try other designs. I hope you're prepared for it, because you'll get to see them all as Patrons. The best one will wind up in a moderated version on my regular social media when the time comes. And just in case this one is already the best one, I'll only post the censored version for now, so that you'll have something to look forward to when it's time for actual holiday wishes.
