Secret Santa 2020: Giving back during the year of holding down back

I’m not gonna plug in the dock until I clean it out, but it should work fine. Its actually the perfect gifts dude, a portable dock and a new game for my switch is gonna do wonders on this deployment I’m about to go do in a few weeks.

I forgot to post photos


Some expensive paint pots


The models to go with the paints.


Brushes, I forgot to take a pic of the model tool kit. You see it in the Vegemite photo


Always wanted to try this, but I didn’t care for it.
Still it a nice addition


These were really good.


Oh yeah, here a Stick for the Switch which I was not expecting. I am debating on should or how should I mod this. I might make it my player 2 Stick for my MiSTer.

Hey peeps, just popping in to prove I’m not dead and didn’t ghost.

Been working hard recently due to Covid-19 staff quarantines at work. 114 hours this past pay period.

I have all the items I will be sending to my Secret Santa, and scheduled time off starting at the end of my shift tomorrow morning which will facilitate shipping of my items.

Thank you for your patience, and please stay healthy out there.

I had vegemite once. . . it tasted - unfinished. Like they forgot to add an ingredient. I’m going to guess it’s a local natural remedy to all the lethal animal life on the continent. :face_with_monocle:

I’ve picked up from my PO Box, but will wait to open until my recipient receives their shipment. Sent it out this morning, supposed to arrive tomorrow - so somebody keep your eyes peeled for a repurposed Walmart package. :stuck_out_tongue:

:christmas_tree:Great job everybody, just have one person to check on for shipping, but it looks like y’all have been holly and jolly like Birdie over the holiday :christmas_tree:

That picture is so unrealistic!

As if a single box of donuts could satisfy Birdie. :stuck_out_tongue:

So got the call that a package came in for me and figured it might be some customer stuff. Nope SS from SRK came thru. Man…you brought a tear to my eyes on the hook up.

Excuse the desk space mess. Once again SRK SS comes thru to brighten up a crappy work week. Did i mention that the art makes me want a Metal Armed option for Bryan Fury in Tekken title like NOW? Dude the gundam models will be built with my son for sure and the snacks are awesome. Son is already laying claim so my need to teach him some Mach Punch cancels to earn that right. Thanks Again and all of you be well in 2021.

Woohoo!

Glad everything arrived safely. Hopefully the Polish treats aren’t too chocolate heavy for you. Sadly the importer didn’t have the fruit filled hard candies I was looking for to include.

Can you customize Bryan Fury to have his robot arm in game? It looks like a cool deal on his coat alternative costume, and I wasn’t aware he was a cyborg until I started doing research for Secret Santa.

I’ll open the package from my Secret Santa tomorrow after work and post images. Looking forward to it since lockdowns and pandemic has resulted in limited socialization and no gift exchanges locally.

Man it’s all awesome and really appreciated. I’ll need to jump on some T7 to see what customizing options he does have either way it’s greatly appreciated. Need to get a frame for the art and once again happy holidays!

Sorry for the delays. Work still kicking my ass. Have a brief respite today, so I headed down to the Covid-19 Clean Room to unpack parcels and tidy up. Finally got around to opening awesome gifts from @GreyFoxx!

Thank you!

Interested to see how this fine tooth sketch book treats me. 50lb paper with mild toothiness to it. Feels less aggressive than the tooth on heavier Bristol boards.

That Chun-Li Hot Wheels car has been calling my name as a companion to the previous Chun food truck they released.

The SF Encyclopedia is a nice update to the previous edition I had, where I discovered Guile is canonically a manlet. This probably explains why he rocks such an aggressive flat top. :stuck_out_tongue: Now I can engage in more of the sort of insanity that scratches an itch to know character height and weight when I take a crack at drawing them. Some times it’s fun to try drawing them as listed, instead of the typical iconic builds we’re accustomed to.

Sincerely, thank you so much. These were the only gifts I received this year, and each one means a lot to me.

Thanks to @feargus001100 for allowing me to participate and coordinating the whole thing.

Let’s look forward to 2021 being less stressful.

Glad you liked them! I wanted each gift to have a cool story to them but I’m super jazzed they are having a higher purpose. Glad to hear that the pad will be a great boon to your art. Keep it up.

Can those sticks be modded easily? I’ve been eyeballing the Chun version for no good reason. . .

Maybe that would be a bad idea, because the last time I bought a fight stick because I loved the art (Soul Calibur 5 PS3) I ended up not using it because I respect Takuji Kawano’s work too much. :sob:

Well it can take the switches and plungers of a 24mm Sanwa but not the rims
The joystick needs dremling
