Requested by Skylore Miller, aka: Renkore - Tensaided as an Epic Santa, with a coat like that one Santa had in Rise of the Guardians.

The first of many overdue sketchbooks to come. Just one for today, though with my recent schedule adjustment, momentum should build quickly.

I would feel worse about posting a Santa request in January, but due to some technical difficulties, I actually received this request too late for Christmas anyway. Granted, it's still later than I'd like, and I do feel bad, and I can never repay Fry the ten dollars, but--Wait, that last one was a Futurama reference. Sorry, sometimes I forget I'm not Zoidberg.

I've never seen Rise of the Guardians, but I should, if for no other reason than to know just how conflicted I should feel about fan art with Jack Frost and Elsa from Frozen as a couple. Personally, I like to think of Elsa as not being interested in men and possibly even being asexual, buuuut that doesn't stop some shipping fan art involving her from being pretty cool.

I also really like Santa's design. I mean, it's really fantastic. Tensaided is wearing a very simplified version of the outfit, and the real deal has a lot of subtle details to it that are great.

Bah. I'm renting the darn thing. Or taking a chance and just buying it if enough people recommend it. In any case, yay Santa Tensaided. He gives icosahedrons to all the good little children and tetrahedrons to the naughty ones.

Note: Requests are (usually) paraphrased for clarity and brevity
