Join in on the Tapastic Winter Fest!

[Doubtcent]

Well turns out I don't have time to make anything. Last minute Christmas stuff to do and comic work to finish up on. Oh well. Back to work.

[aspiderjonny]

Hello Cyndi! Love the WinterFest so far. Hope I'm not too late to upload something. Here's my contribution to the festival. It takes place in between the Silversong part, where The J-Man and Sleepy Bear are WinterFest volunteers setting up the big tree.

Sorry if it's not up to my usual standard of quality but I'm on a time crunch to get my own Christmas images up on my series' (hopefully released on Christmas Eve). Merry Christmas to everyone in WinterFest, and Tapastic in general!

[PotooGryphon]

Ah! So cool! I really like the wordless dialogue between them. I know @elixiadragmire will love this too.

I've added you too, and added it to the original post too where you can see it with a title card.

QUESTIONS! XD

Is Jonny a volunteer at the event setting up Christmas trees?

What's his crazy story for ending up here at the festival?

And tell us about Jonny Comic. <3

[cobra_n]

Man I wish I knew about this sooner I would have loved to have drawn something. I'm loving the winterfest though so far it's pure genius! I Discovered a lot of new great stories I hope there are more events like this in the future!

[PotooGryphon]

^-^; Yeah, I wish I had thought of opening this thread sooner too. D'OH! haha

However, I can still post any extra event stuff on my Extra Fluff series even after the deadline has past. It's not quite the same however, it's nice seeing all of them collected together.

Tell us about Jonny Comic:

Jonny Web Series is a superhero action comic with elements of sci-fi, drama, and comedy. The main character, Jonny Regionson Jr., takes the (not well thought out) name: "The J-Man". With help from his robotic buddy Sleepy Bear and intelligent best bud Abraham Anderson, Jonny hopes to help his police captain father uncover the truth behind who the "Big-Man" of crime in is as well as protect NYC from the new rise of supervillains

Is Jonny a volunteer at the event setting up Christmas trees?

The J-Man and Sleepy Bear are volunteer staff at WinterFest, setting up the huge (and heavy) tree as well as other jobs. They're doing most of the background stuff. while the present story happens.

What's his crazy story for ending up here at the festival?

After saving one the managers of the WinterFest from mutant gingerbread monsters during a hoilday bash in Rockefeller Center (long story, don't ask), he asked if The J would be available to help with the festival. The J and SB agreed to help as long as their pay would go to charity.

They're kind of a clumsy and mischievous duo so whenever they saw the present flying, Ikou grabbed it but when some delicious food caught his attention, he forgot about the present and dropped it

They went to the fest because they were attracted by all the lights - Ikou's afraid of the dark and Moth follows light. There was also the bonus of all kinds of delicious food there!

Um... Trivia from Nature is about various interesting aspects of nature, animal behavior, fun facts and discoveries, etc. Every episode is self-contained but there have been two "tale" specials - one two-part about a leaf and now the four-part special about Ikou.

BTW Thanks for this opportunity, I had been cracking my brain about what to draw as a Merry Christmas card and this made me realize I can simply draw Ikou this way and everything suddenly becomes funnily connected - the fest, the Trivia special (it will become clearer in the next episodes), Christmas, Tapastic, readers... So cool <3

gosh golly jee whiz it's a miracle i got this done. I had so many ideas as soon as i saw this topic and was so excited to participate!!!!! Lalita and her crew mates have set up a booth at the winter festival to sell of some of the extra items on the ship. I've also put cameos from other different characters that have participated in the winter festival from images on this forum to the actual series. <3

i loved it i'm happy i got to do something.

[PotooGryphon]

You guys that can complete full episodes so quickly are blowing my mind.

So many LMAO! And I love that you cameo-ed a few from this thread too XD
The meta joke of the present passing by so many times and Violet (@lira) buying a Death blaster. omg funny!

Ok questions XD

What crazy backstory lead them to building a booth at the Winter Fest? Is the Fest near the original crash site in the Lalita series? OuO!

What's the strangest object they have for sale?

And tell us all about your series.

[Thesleepypencil]

I'm glad you like it I was super down to the wire. working on it in between pages. I actually had a second part planned but new i'd never get it done in time so i edited things down : 3

I really wanted to do something with both Violet and the satrians Because their stories are also alien, space and sci-fi based and it just makes me connect their series to mine much easier. I had wanted to do something with Ri as well but just couldn't think of something and time was running out.

Answers!:

this short is probably set somewhere way later in the story. the ship was probably Getting really crowded with souvenirs from the different planets they visit. causing trouble for the ship. They checked the Universal database to discover the winter fest nearby and thought it would be a great chance to loose some weight. So they landed and set up!

What's the strangest object they have for sale?
tha'ts a tough one! There must be a strange weapon like a Blaster that shoots thunderstorms, or a musical instrument like the singin opera heart, plants like lalita's collection of Prism cacti, or some weird food from the back corners of their kitchen cupboards like canned "smell of family gatherings". They seem to find and collect the weirdest things.

And tell us all about your series.
Lalita at the end of the universe Is about a group of aliens who have all been individually abducted from their planets. The Main character is Lalita from earth, the story mostly follows her as they travel across space on a huge quest given to them to find a place called The end of the universe. They of course take alot of detours and check out alot of planets and get into alot of trouble. But hey it's not about the destination! (or is it?)

[Starfestival]

Is it too late to participate?

[elixiadragmire]

Love it! I love seeing her in your artstyle

[aspiderjonny]

@elixiadragmire Thank You!

And good job with your WinterFest part.

Hello, I'd like to take part with a N.A.T. booth!

(I haven't seen about the deadline change, I thought it was still on the 25th Oo. Unfortunately I couldn't color it on time, I'll be able to do it later though (like, after Christmas.)

Well actually it's more a double booth! These two new friends (?) wanted to come together to Tapastic Winter Fest.

On the left side, Jill offers plants from planet Novalennda. Those aren't for sale, however you may get one through barter. Trading living beings for money is very badly regarded by Novalians (this isn't valid for fruits and vegetables though). That's why most of the time, plants and animals are swapped for something else.

On the right side of the booth, Kaïla is selling models of spaceships from her people, the Azrilians. By purchasing one, you might take part in the funding of an invasion army, but maybe that's only rumors...

That's all for now! Thanks for creating this topic \o/. All the entries (here and in main episodes of the Fest) are so great!

[PotooGryphon]

If you submit one I'll do my best to include it X3

Hello, I'd like to take part with a N.A.T. booth!

@Nerual Ah! So COOL! <3

Yeah, I'm so sorry we didn't think of opening this thread sooner. We just didn't know!... WE JUST DIDN'T KNOW! :shakes fist to the sky: that the Winter Fest would go over so well. In fact many times, we were thinking to ourselves, "I sure hope this takes off and doesn't flop" ^_^;

What's the strangest plant Jill has of their side of the stand and what's Kaïla favorite spaceship model on their side?

Is there a crazy story to how they ended up at the Winter Fest?

And tell us about your comic series <3

[Maffi]

Took me forever but i hope i made it on time!
(most likely have to click on this to view it cuz its a gif file)

[legendriders96]

Gah! Hope we made it in time. This is The Mini Place booth. The Place is a sweets and coffee shop in Terveru, the fictional land where Legend Riders is taking place. Inside the booth, Alex, Kassie and Vera, three or the protagonists of the series are voluntreering to help The Place sell some hot drinks and cakes because it's their favourite cafe and they like doing stuff like that. Ok Alex just likes eating macaroons, but Vera is an excellent cook and Kassie is good with public relations 8'D. Also presenting, the Buttercup Puffs, a special round cake with filling <3 People can try it for free~ More about the Legend Riders series here: http://tapastic.com/series/LR_LoL
The Place appears much later in the story but it's already a cool place to have coffee for some of the characters~ The show is still in the beginning so can't reveal much info about the world, just that it's set in the current times, in a place called Terveru, as previously mentioned and it revolves around an ancient civilization, the Lennay as well as Heaven and Hell.

Merry Christmas everyone~

Would I still be in time if I upload something in about 3 hours?

[whydocowsfall]

This is awesome, I can't believe I only just saw it! I got so excited when I saw Polyphemus in the background, you've totally made my day! :DD

[PotooGryphon]

Go for it, I'll do my best to include it.
