Good evening all!
With the holiday seasons approaching fast, it has been presented as an idea that we should try something new to our merry little community: A CN Secret Santa! We all enjoy Warhammer and all enjoy taking part in the hobby together, why not share some joy with it? Wouldn’t you like to exchange models with a “secret” recipient?
Sound like fun? Then read on below!
Starting Saturday the 2nd of October, you’ll have the opportunity to sign up for the CN Secret Santa. The goal of this event is to paint someone a miniature without letting them know that you’re painting it for them. On the 9th of October Boo and myself will notify each participant who his or her secret recipient will be. Don’t tell anyone; it’ll ruin the fun! From there on, each of the participants will get a mini and paint it for their recipient to send. Everyone should receive a painted miniature from his or her Secret Santa by the 5th of January.
To be part of the CN Secret Santa Event, you must follow these procedures and guidelines:
• You must have a post count of at least 75.
• Sign your name up on the dedicated thread for the list.
• Send a PM to Boo and myself noting your full name, full address, and your “wants” for the miniature you’ll be receiving. This information will be given to the person who will be painting for you!
When you send your PM in to us, please use the following format:
Type: Vampire, preferably armoured (Blood Dragon style)
Made by: Fine with all manufacturers (doesn't have to be GW)
Colors/ Theme: Laqcured red armour style
Don't like: Current Aristocrat Vampiress or Vlad
• There is a $15 limit on the mini you buy for someone; be thoughtful about it, this will be a gift to your person.
• Once you have a mini for that person, you must post a picture of the mini in the before stage, stating that you are ready to roll with it.
• You must post progress shots of your mini each week.
• You must find time to complete the mini and get it to your recipient by the 5th of January. While international shipping can be a pain, please take this into account and use your time wisely.
• We all paint at different levels and have different strengths. Be respectful of this. Realize that someone is taking the time to paint a miniature just for you! Any negativity about the gift a person receives will be dealt with sternly.
• If you sign up for this exchange, please follow through with it. If you cannot complete the exchange, then do not sign up for it. If anyone is left without a mini due to the incompetence of his or her Secret Santa, that sender will be dealt with sternly.
Please keep in mind that this event is for all of us to have fun. Any foul actions, such as not sending out a mini after you’ve made the commitment or the use of a poor attitude will be dealt with by stern moderator action. We’re here to have fun and enjoy each other’s creativity and giving spirit!
All in all, this should be a fun event! Now sign up!
All the best,
Jake and Boo
