Yes, this custom used to be "Papa Smurf". I originally had to idea to turn him into "Santa Claus" after the Halloween contest because it would be more practical and easy to do. So when the "Frigid Festivities" contest was announced; I couldn't resist and entered him into the contest. I kept my description to a bare minimum, but the observant Realmers "found me out". HaHa I tried to alter him so as not to break the rules, but obviously I didn't alter him enough. Thank you to all the people who took the time and voted. Even though I don't do very well in these contests, they are fun to do.

thought I recognized this one, but great update none the less. your accessories and the candy canes are totally sweet.

nice recycle! awesome stuff!

Upon seeing that shimmy down a chimney or teleport into a living room at night Iam sure no child would ever want to celebrate Christmas again! Aside from the mental scaring nice concept you got here!

Unless I'm mistaken, this does appear to be an update of a custom from a previous contest. However, if that's the case, it has been significantly altered from that incarnation, so I'm inclined to give it a pass.

Nightcrawler makes for a rather interesting, and different, look for Santa, and I like the extras you made to go with him.

I bet this one was fun to make. This is a much better explanation than the chimney. WOW on the candy canes!

Awesome!

lol he looks just like papa smerf
