Thanks guys! One final Christmas Day treat. Here's a shot of the post present opening aftermath at our house. Of course Mrs. Gits has dutifully run around and picked up the paper and bows that were tossed everywhere, and the toys have been spirited away and are being played with. But the mighty Xenos forces still stand vigil over the tree. I was a bit nervous when the boys went in to see the tree (their mom wouldn't let them go in until I was down stairs). The fireplace and stockings are in a different room so the kids were doing that first and had not yet seen the tree or the 40k figs. When they finally went into the tree room there was silence... I wasn't sure if they hadn't even seen the figures or hadn't sorted out exactly what had changed.... or just didn't care. Then I heard the little one start squealing in delight, and my eldest walked slowly back into the room and announced that it was the coolest monolith paint job he'd ever seen... gave me a hug & wished me Merry Christmas. It was all worth it.

Merry Christmas and this blog is wonderful. It's so inspiring and it pushes me to paint better everytime. The chapter seems to be coming along very well, almost makes me want to start a loyalists chapter. The quality of the camo scheme is amazing. That chaplain from several pages back is awsome, absolutely awsome.

@Gir: Have a battle with wyfox and the boyz planned for some time this week. Should be nids everywhere!
@mekbadzappa: Delighted to have you aboard mek, thanks for such kind words... they help keep ME inspired too!
I think I'm off the hook for the rest of the day. All the official Christmas duties are done... I can sit back and relax. Kids are playing Mario Kart... wife is puttering with a fancy breakfast... think I'll watch the Dr. Who marathon until the football games begin at noon. *sigh* It's a good Christmas!

Yeah, my old man got me the start of my Nurgle army and various magnets. Also a really nice Battlefoam bag. Now to get Goatboy to draw on it....
But you, sir, are the most awesome of wargame dads. Lol. Merry Christmas, now go get some sleep. Next Christmas is only a year away.
