Santa's Secret Space Raid - 2015 **signups closed**

I shall still take the opportunity to whip DGP the next time we pass in the Warp, however, in the meantime we have movement on the gift front.  And what lovely movement it is, too - some outstanding Grots from Mr. Pink for DGP, and a fantastic Talos for Mr. Pink from an anonymous fleshcrafter!  Not to mention, two fine pieces of correspondence.

And PICS, glorious PICS!!!  Thank you, gentlemen.

Our Raid is slowly edging towards the grand finale.  With just twelve participants, all wily vets to boot, I had hopes that it would be a smoothish affair this year but at the moment, we still have four outstanding.  Two were mailed late, and the mail systems in general seem to be possessed by Greater Daemons of Stupidity this year, so there remains good hope that both of these will not only arrive still, but will do soon in the not-so-distant future.

And one of them, I wish we had a drone camera in place when it is opened!  Oh, yes indeed.

[EDIT] BOOM! Dropped already That leaves just three.

The final two gifts were also late getting mailed, but their whereabouts are less certain and all we can do is wait, sadly.  If, by month end, nothing has exploded in their vicinities, the Aid Committee will swiftly swing into  action.  Until then, I can only apologize to my fellow Archons for the delays.

I shall help purchase a gift for my victim that isn't receiving his gift on time because of issues with the mail (I think)

Let's give it some more time and see how it pans out. Thank you very much for the offer, though.

Mr_Pink,
I am looking at getting some Grots soon-ish and I am curious what models/bits you used to make those gift-grots. Minotaurs as the base?

Sorry to lag on posting, but Dark Green Pirate really came through with the most awesome gift!

The parts to build Tthe Ultimate Dark Eldar Battle Tank MKII!


If you don't listen to Splintermind you have no idea why in the hell this is so awesome! It will feature in episode 20 next month

Oh, and there was a Death Jester in the bottom of the box

A really thoughtful and wonderful gift, thanks again DGP.

Ha-ha, that looks excellent, and freakin' hilarious! I hope you paint it to match the Mk. I

I can't quite make out what he wrote about the tank(?), any chance of a close-up?

A ************** is ready if the gift doesn't get there.

I am still waiting to hear about the delivery of the final three gifts, unfortunately. If there is no movement by the end of this week, I will be asking the Aid Committee to step up. Hopefully, it won't come to that, but it has been a strange year ......

I'm slightly annoyed. If I sent it to the wrong address though then I'll make sure my giftee gets the best thing a 16 year old can buy (-incoming conversions-)

It may be a bit late to ask but just want to make sure because I haven't heard anything. Has anybody not gotten a gift yet?

I haven't, but Archon Claus has informed me that it's being taken care of.

Finally it arrived!

Sadly not the original one, but neverless a pleasant suprise.

Inside I found: an Archon, a Haemonculus, a pack of wracks and a box of Incubi.

Awesome!

Thanks Taffy_10 for the gift!

I suddenly feel as if the gift I sent was really meh o.o Don't break all the resin!
