Hello and welcome to the Monthly Drawing Challenge of December 2016!

The winner of last month's challenge was m-gui, who chose this month's topic.
The exact results of the previous challenge can be found at viewtopic.php?f=277&t=137133

This month's topic is:

Pet and Owner

As always, use the hashtag #kritachallenge to talk about this challenge.


--==How the challenge works==--

The topic changes every month. Every image should be somehow related to the current topic.
It would be nice, if you could also add an explanation, how it is related to the topic, if you think that it is not clear from the image alone.

You can submit your image until the 25th of December, 12:00 pm (noon) UTC, by posting an image as answer in this thread.
For posting images, the same rules as in the Gallery section apply.

Collaborative works are allowed.

After the drawing phase, a poll will be created and forum users can vote for the winner.
The poll will run for 7 days, the winner will be the one with the most votes until the end of the poll.

The winner will have the privilege to choose the topic for the January 2017 challenge!
When there are multiple winners, every winner chooses a topic.
The participants of the following challenge can then freely choose one or multiple of them.

HI, here's my entry. This is my first attempt with using a image hosting service. I hope it worked.

Hi,
I'm making a comic, and tangentially it seems to fir into this month's challenge.
(is that against the rules? apologies if it is.)

Here's mine.



There's some subtle references in this one, if you get what that's all about.

Its been a while since I haven't make it to the challenge : ) this time I'm sharing a painting I made to celebrate David Revoy's 20th episode of his Open Comic, which is a perfect platform to learn from.

I called this one "chocolate fingers" (just for showing, I'm not participating )
If you think I miss the pet, think twice (hint: Yuzu)

My Entry for this Month
----------------

I want to ask, is fan art allowed here?

Hey!
The Drawing Challenge is over!
I will set up a poll in the next minutes
Thanks to everybody who participated and spread the word!

@mkrss : You can post fan art if the creator of the character(s) you draw allows fan art.

Hey!
The poll phase is over. Congratulations to beelzy for winning.
Thanks to everybody who submitted a drawing, voted, and spread the word!
I hope to see you again in the next Monthly Drawing Challenge.
