And lo, spake the Spud: "Let There Be Gifting!"

There's no immediate rush if you're not done-- the gifting period is from today until NEXT Sunday. If you require assistance with delivery (file hosting and the like), please let me know.

(oh, and for the first time since this started, I don't have my own present ready to go on the first delivery day. My giftee will have to wait until mid-week. :) )

Thunder

Well..I'll start off.   My giftee was thehitman.  I did a special skin for him on the Gl_Halv2 mesh.  Behold the newest member of the Sinestro Corps..the Hawaiian shirt wearing Hitman (heh..tried to make a Hawaiian shirt pattern on the costume)

[spoiler][/spoiler]

BTW thehitman, please PM me your e-mail so I can send the skin to you

I took care of mine but I dont want to put out spoilers until my victim recieves their gift in the mail. I did send it under pretty quick shipping, so it will be enough time for it to become feral and hungry but not enough for it to starve to death or break out and kill postal workers.

aww, c'mon.  what's a few postal workers in the grand scheme of things.  Or better yet, a few Fed-Ex/Kinkos people. GRRR!!!!!

I'm having some printing and shipping issues with my gift.  So . . . either my giftee will be getting a slightly altered online and a hardcopy of it . . . or just a online version. 

I AM NOT HAPPY!!

Glitch Girl

My giftee was FigureFan who I made a Christmas greeting pic (though I think I may have gone a littel crazy with the glitter... oh well, it's sparkly :D ).  Here you go FF!

[spoiler]
If you want to see how the base character came out without the package and hip replacement (so I could do the springee bit) I have a test render I can show you if you want.  [/spoiler]

Merry Christmas FF!!

:faint

That..is...so....cool! Thank you so much, Glitch. I love it. The glitter makes it more festive, no? Also, yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing the test render.

Flat-out-awesome.


As for my giftee, I'm putting the finishing touches on their gift. It should be ready by mid-week.

Sword

I had bought a model car for my giftee, The_Ultimate_Evil, but shipping to the UK will be a bear.

juancho

My victim this year was Thor Reborn, and my gift is a 3 pack of alternative avatars, since his look is quite new and afaik he has none

First a Micro Hero


An Rpg micro (done with Tanas base from RXMP)


and last but not least, an old trend from this forums a NEOPET

Supoib, Juancho!

Mine's still not completed thanks to hassles getting my new PC up and running, but I've spoken with my victim and they're aware of the delay.

catwhowalksbyhimself

Mine is going to be a tad late, partially because of my computer monitor causing me issues.  I just now got it to work again, and it's about time to get ready for work.

Should be within a day or two.

Zippo

Mine is also on its way. Should be done within a few days. Good work so far everyone!

GrizzlyBearTalon

Mine is ready to be sent out I just need to hear back from my giftee about their address.

Joyous Festivities of Getting, Juancho!

Glitch Girl

FF: I'll see about PMing you that preview pic this weekend.

Thunder: Hawiian print Lantern?  :D :D :D

Juancho: very cool sprites there.  Love the micros.

Spud: I don't know why, but I LOVE the face on that one. 

TUE: I like the hood.  It adds a different kind of feel, but I kinda like it. 

Everyone else: is it just me or are there a LOT of delays this year?

big thanxs to murs for skinning the skope of zippo's avatar

Figure Fan

I'm am having a heck of a time with this laptop of mine. I've been trying to use Photoshop but it gets too hot and shuts down without warning. Ugh! I'll have to complete my gift on my friend's computer within the next few days.

Sorry for the delay  :(

You need the dust cleaned out of it... blast those heat vents with compressed air and if you are confident opening up the laptop give the heat sink on the processor a good bunch of blasts too.


The Hitman

*Comes running in*

Hey guys...*pant* things have been extremely, extremely buisy for me lately, and I know it's not a viable excuse, but I'm going to be a tad late on my gift. It's about half- done sitting here next to me. Sorry for the delay.

Thunder- Wow dude! Awesomeness!! I really llike it! I'll PM my e- mail sometime in the next couple of days.

Well, gotta go *Goes running off, trips on something, gets up and runs again*

juancho

spud

I am just crying :D
Wow dude, that is waaaaaayyyyy toooo awsome to describe it, I just can't belive how lucky I am

Thanks man, you are awsome!!!!!!

Zippo

Wow, sweet stuff Thor (and murs)! Thanks so much!

Uncle Yuan, your gift is on it's way; it'll be in before the new year.

catwhowalksbyhimself

And. . . after posting that my monitor promptly shut down and hasn't worked since.  I finally bought a new one a few minutes ago after finding every one I wanted sold out thanks to the after Christmas sales.

Sigh.

Alright, NOW it will be just a couple more days. . .

The Pwime

I already messaged Spud...so yeah, mine will be a few more days, too.


Sorry everyone.  :(

Mr. Hamrick

I have messaged my person regarding the delay with the gift I am shipping to them.

Sorry for the delay here as well.

As I PMed you already, I love it. The hood works. Can't wait to play around with it in the character tool.

Alaric

I've been away for the past week, and I'm having more trouble finishing my gift than I anticipated, so, in fairness to my giftee (Thunder), as a placeholder gift of sorts, I whipped up this Thunder Abstract Art!



I'll get the actual gift done sometime in the next few days, hopefully.
