It's been a long time since the last contest. This contest is inspired by the holiday season, in particular, Santa Claus and the animated film Kung Fu Panda.

Theme

The theme is to drawing a kung fu-style Santa Claus.

Since kung fu implies action, your illustration must show Santa in action.

You can redesign any aspect of Santa but he should be recognisable so you might want to keep his beard and his red and white colour theme.

Additional props, weapons, characters or backgrounds are optional unless you think they can aid your visual.

Prizes

I will pick my favourite as the winning piece. Let's see whose Santa can kick the most ass!

The winner can choose any art book(s), under a total $50, from this list or list of upcoming art books as your prize.

Please can you confirm if it is acceptable to use a photograph as the background for this? I am inspired to have a go with an idea that came to me, but it will only work with a photo behind! Thanks in advance.

Hi, I sent the design for the contest at the above address, but I had no answer. I was wondering if the email has arrived?

he doesn't need to be knocking anyone out right? Santa could just be in a cool action pose right?

@randy
It's 1024px wide - resolution is not important. 1024px at 300dpi is the same as 1024px at 72dpi.

@Anonymous
Santa can do whatever he wants as long as he's in the scene.

Parka, I sent in my entry twice (the first one was an older version with a glaring translation error, and the second one is fixed.) Please only post the finished second one. I would like to know that you received both the files and the instructions.
Thanks!
