I did have a thought process behind this, what do you need to dig into some Mythos than a bit of Delerium. May the pink elephants guide you well.

Part 2 of my LR4 gift arrived Thursday according to the tracking, but I haven't seen a post yet, so I'm hoping nothing went wrong.

I went to turn on the porch light, and what did I spy but another mystery package: And therein was contained a gift fit for a Fedaykin!  I don’t even see the point of keeping my other tumblers now. Much thanks, Goon Santa! This is fantastic!

Sorry to double post, but I just took the trash out and checked the mail to find a package! I, too, have been blessed with Christmas shark wreaking paper. Whatever could be inside?  An adorable owlbear pin! Two seconds after I took this picture it was already attached to my work lanyard.  Some fiendish looking wererats. Now I just need to decide whether to leave them as is or modify them to start building a new Bloodbowl team.  Custom dice made by goon Shima Honnou, complete with a cool gold dice bag. I love the gold, silver, and people color scheme. Makes me feel like royalty. Thanks, DressCodeBlue! A great variety of gifts. rydiafan fucked around with this message at 15:03 on Dec 21, 2021 |

I actually agonized over the paint choice for those dice, so I'm pumped you like that combo! I'm also glad that the Santa Shark paper was an adequate replacement for elegant squids. In other news: An amazing final package from Benedict arrived yesterday! I asked for printed Nurgley things and he came through in a major way:  Three beefy frogs and a very good dog that are definitely moving to the top of my to-paint pile. The fine boi on the bottom right in particular is an amazing sculpt.  A spectacular set of nasty 3D bases. Seriously impressed by the heft of these! And the Lord of Blights you sent earlier will have a nice home.  A festive pair of ornaments!  This lad deserved a close-up.  And everything together! Seriously, thank you so much!!!

so there seems to be a lot of confusion on those minis on what base goes to the dog. the frogs are the small bases. the dog is listed as.... i want to say 60mm? but the bases are only 40 and 180? so they suggest taking the big base and resizing it to match the dog, which is where that ....mediumish....base... comes from. so if you want to put him on the smaller base and use the mediumish for your blight boy, who am i to judge. if you want to use the medium for the plague puppy, who am i to judge? All things are right in the eyes of papa nurgle. I figured id give you options and let your heart sing to them. Glad you liked the remainder and im glad they got their before christmas.

I just got home to an unexpected package, and it contained a ruined French-style villa! (Some assembly required:)  There's no note - did you bonus gift me, Arrrthritis or have I acquired some other mysterious patron?

Since Etsy grinched me via late shipping, I deployed a $25 (it wouldn't let me do $35, so sorry!  ) Miniatures Market gift certificate to my santee and will now reveal myself to them in shame: @Bucnasti, I hope you get something awesome with your gift certificate and enjoy your Etsy order whenever it comes. I've included my email in the gift certificate, so if you want proof your Etsy gift is coming, email it and I'll send you the screenshot.Thanks for a wonderful year gang. I'm struggling with the proper placement of my terrorgeist's ribs, a classic symptom of GW Miniature Design/Merriness Disorder, but he's gonna look so badass once it's built. Thanks again!

Yes, it has been an amazing year for Santa-ing. I will be sure to post my gunfighters and Tiny Botes in the painting thread as I assemble them over the next year. I've already rolled my new dice in anger GMing my group's Christmas game.

sasha_d3ath posted:Thanks for a wonderful year gang. Oh god your username changed my poor spreadsheets Anyway good job, as I told you separately I think you've done the right thing. Today is the 22nd, the deadline! We're nearly across the finish line. Main Round According to my spreadsheet, every Santee has received something, except Cotton Candidasis, whose gift status was "shipped" some time ago. Some goons send multiple gifts, and in a few cases, a second or third package is still in transit: Sion tracking showed delivery of a 2nd package like 2 weeks ago but Sion isn't responding to attempts to communicate. I hope Sion is OK. Please check in! Hedningen had a 2nd package by my notes, but I'm not sure if it arrived. It might have been two things that were combined into one package. Please verify? Bonus Rounds Round 1: I'm not sure if Tiny Chalupa got their gift yet, it was noted as "deployed." Rid has a package due for delivery about now, but there is no in-country tracking for this international shipment. Please let us know if you get it. Round 2: Bucnasti should have received a gift but Etsy has grinched them; TK_Nyarlathotep aka sasha_d3ath has parted the veil to set this right two posts up, and is a Good Santa. Round 3 is complete. Round 4: Rhjamiz, tracking shows delivery of a second of two packages (you posted receipt of the first). Can you verify? Round 5: An order for The Bloop was placed, but I don't yet have confirmation it arrived. That's all I've got. Please, if you are a Santa or a Santee and you believe I have made an error, either of inclusion or omission, in the above list: let me know. It is very challenging to keep track of over a hundred gifts!

Think I might get some of these Turbodork paints that people keep talking about. The Etsy order for my last Santee is also going to miss the deadline (my own fault for not realizing I was ordering from Canada) so I deployed my favorite holiday card with a consolation giftcard inside to my target. Edit to add: This is been a wonderful experience this year. Really uplifted my holiday spirits Thanks for doing all this work LF

Either I miscounted gifts or one of my Santas was extra generous, because another package arrived today! It's some sweet-rear end terrain! Assembling and painting these will be a nice change of pace from painting little dudes. The box in the right even has a deck of little cards for randomizing the layout when playing with it, which is a super neat concept!  Pictured above is my wife's Halloween Town display which dominates the dining room year round. I only show it because, due to these terrain pieces being relatively spoopy, there's an 80% chance this is where it'll all end up. Thanks, unexpected bonus/repeat Santa! Also, LF, your bonus gift shows as arriving a USPS distribution facility near you this morning, so hopefully you get it soon.
