So here is what I got today. I gotta say it is pretty freakin sweet. It also came with a letter. I want to let BatMcFly know that I really like this poster and I now I will be looking for a nice frame to hang it up in. You did a fantastic job with this and I really like it. I think the print turned out great.

Thank you so much!

My match, bombvoyage, did message me directly to let me know he received, opened and is “beyond thrilled” with the gift I sent him. He doesn’t seem to be very active on here so here are some pics of what I sent him. I am a bit of an amateur machinist and metal worker and I used a CNC router to engrave and cut all of the aluminum for the box and coins. I then painted, sanded and weathered them all for a more aged and used look. I was inspired by Professor Broom’s box from the Hellboy movie since my match is a big fan. He is also a big fan of Jurassic Park so I included a JP paperweight of the mosquito in amber cane topper. The last picture is the one Bombvoyage sent me after he opened it.

Hoo Boy! It was a wild holiday season Down Under.
With travel restrictions changing daily I managed to score myself a total of 6 weeks in quarantine.
But today.
TODAY.

I was able to go down to the Post Office and collect my long awaited Secret Santa Gift!

Its an amazing Steampunk inspired mask and goggles combo, perfect for when you have to stand on the deck of your airship in high winds.

Thank you so much Santa!

As an added note, this has inspired me toward some kind of Mortal Kombat Scorpion/Steampunk mashup!
 
I know I am late, but I promised to post pictures of the wonderful gift my secret santa sent me. So here it is in all its beauty, a communicator from Star Wars A New Hope! It is just amazing! I am very happy to have been gifted this. He included a note that described the work he put into this. It is a combination of 3D printing and screen accurate found parts. And the display case is just brilliant. Thank-you very much! :)

Thanks very much Indy Magnoli!

Sorry for the delay but today I finally received my gift after catching up with my in-laws post-lockdown.

Inside was a note mentioning Star Wars and Blade Runner. I could clearly see the Star Wars model kit but wasn't sure if I was missing something until I opened the box. Thank you for the great cards from Deckard's wallet! I'll have to build the wallet now.

The badges are great and I had to laugh at the rebel badge with a kangaroo on it!
