"Overwatch Holiday Party – Cookies, Chaos, and Christmas Cheer!"

What happens when Overwatch heroes take a break from saving the world and throw a cozy Christmas party? You get this delightful mess.

Bob has secretly taken baking lessons (who knew?) and shows up with cookies so good they leave Ashe genuinely speechless. Mercy’s serving hot cocoa like an angelic barista, and Genji’s fully embraced his holiday spirit—with a sweater, snacks, and a very chill Hammond. Meanwhile, Reaper’s doing his best wallflower impression in the corner. He wants to join... he really does.

This piece was pure joy to paint—from Mercy’s whipped cream wings to the frosting-stained gloves of Bob. Hope it brings a smile (and maybe a craving for cookies) to your day!
