So how are you preparations going?
>>149638341
My first package came today!
Finished the rough carving of my wooden hatsune miku nendo gift.
Waiting for my package. I hope my anon likes his waifu on a sheet.
>>149638431
What? A wooden nendo?
>>149638341
I am the gift.
My first set of gifts are ordered. Unbelievably, a package from Osaka will be here a full week sooner than a package shipped domestically.
It's gonna be torture waiting to send them out.
First timer here, how would you feel if you were gifted stuff above your bracket? I personally would have no issues with it but I can imagine other people feeling guilty over it, dumb as it sounds.
>>149639083
I have no issues about it. But like you said, some people might feel guilty about it.
>>149639083
The people who would feel guilty for more than five minutes are in the vast minority.
I've been waiting all week for this thread.I feel like a child again
>>149639083
Chances are they know or did it on purpose. Just thank them, write them a card if they give you the opportunity, or pay it forward later on.
>>149638341
Two of my cards are done, I just need to go to the post office. I'm supposed to have two more assignments but it looks like Santafaggot is still trying to figure stuff out.
>>149639386
Me too anon. It's the most fun I have on /a/.
>>149639432
To clarify I'd be the one gifting above the bracket, that's why I'm curious how you guys would feel receiving it.
>>149639432FHfromWA
I'm shipping stuff directly to you because it's coming straight from Japan and I wouldn't want you waiting until way after Christmas. I'll try and send you a package of my own as well so you get something I personally put together.
>>149639623
>>149639432
I regularly spend ~70 on poverty bracket.
>>149639649
Sorry, didn't mean to quote
>>149638341
Two out of five cards done.They look like crap and hopefully Anon doesn't hate me for mutilating his waifu so bad
Also paid 3000 yen to forwarder (books are heavy as fuck) and wait for Amiami to send the invoice. I wish Anon will like what I got them.
Also on a completely different note, how would you feel if you got drama CD? I wouldn't think that anyone would downright hate it, but it does require some knowledge of moon.
>>149639623
I'd love whatever an anon would send me whether it was worth 25 or over 50 if i chose 25-50.
I'd rather have something than be grinched
I've already had all my orders arrive, took less than 4 days by airmail. Guess I'll sit on them until the end of the month before sending them to my assignment though.
>>149638341
Had two drawings out of six done for card but I'm gonna redo one because, even if I'm not an artist , I have standards. High standards and low skill sucks. Fuck me I guess.
I have a little more shopping I should complete today, too. So I guess that's ok.
>Nippon Yassan still "preparing" my order since the 7th
>havent even started on my 3 cards
I still can't buy anything because of a certain anon's unclear wishlist.
Messaged already but haven't gotten a response yet.
What do?
The ideal deadline for international shipping is the first week of December correct? Does someone have the chart?
I have one present ready since it is lieing around, but I haven't even started, too. Should start soon.
>>149639973
Just ship it as soon as you can.
>>149639973
Your postal service / courier will have shipping times on their website, just go by that.
>>149639695
I know how that is, I was looking for some books for my anon and the shipping would have killed me. But luckily I also found those books on amazon, so I paid next to nothing for shipping.
Just received his gifts. Gonna add some posters, a card and maybe some candy and ship it.
>>149640164
Funnily enough, I ordered from Amazon too, but it was a marketplace-sellerand it was A2-sized posterbook so yeah.
I was expecting it to be heavy, but I really underestimated how much it would actually weigh.
>>149640350
Ah, yea shipping from amazon itself can be cheap or even free. But it's another story if it's from someone else.
Still haven't ordered the materials.
In the final processes of brainstorming and organizing what to buy then going to start working on the gift asap.
Zalgo-kunofSacramentowhat clothing size do you usually buy for t-shirts?
Is sending cards in early December okay? I doubt I'll be able to finish them earlier.
>Just learned a few days ago that I will be out of state for christmas
SantaFriends I sent you an email to send to whoever is assigned to me, gomen
About t-shirts, an M would fit just about anyone r-right? I don't want to contact my giftee directly and ruin the surprise since it's based on a niche series and I plan to design it myself.
I sure hope Obto likes Ferrero Rocher
>>149640895
Weabs aren't known for their athleticism or general wellness. You're better off just asking his general shirt/clothing size and keeping as many details hidden as you can.
>>149640662
Just send them as soon as their finished.
Received my card today.
Save it until Christmas, right?
>>149640895
Im an xxl/xxxl, wouldn't risk. An m would only be of use as a wash cloth.
Ordered items for my two anons and already received one yesterday, unfortunately the outside is slightly damaged due to >amazon shipping.
Haven't started cards yet.
Finbro, you said you'd update your list "soon". I've been waiting;_;
>>149640895
>>149640966
Damn I guess I am a small exception for this since I started looking after myself since my family started having operations left and right and diseases. I went from 235 down to like 170 lbs, also sorry for blog shit just saying since I actually made it apparent to my santas that I wear size M's now instead of XL
>>149641114
Well since they sent it so early, they might expect it to be posted early. So great, looking forward to see the early card every week.
>>149641234
I'm in the same boat, brah, no worries. Used to be a chunky monkey, got into weightlifting and dropped a ton of fat. Now I can indulge in my degenerate hobbies without looking like a total drain on society.
I mean, I still am, but I just don't look that way.
>>149639960
Might not be a bad idea to try to get contact to them in threads (even if you've tried before, they might have just missed it).
I guess if that doesn't work, maybe contact Santa again in case something went wrong somewhere in the message chain.
>>149638341
Ordered all my shit with SAL
Livin' on the edge
>>149638341
My printer heads fucked up and they cost like 80 bucks each so I'm fucked if my backup printer isn't working.
That aside I'm ok.
All my gifts arrived and I've wrapped them.
Now I just need to tie them up with ribbon, do the cards, and ship them off!
Got two of the things I ordered from Mandarake, started working on the card now. I'm just waiting on one order from Nin-nin-game since I had hard time finding it on other sites. Nin-nin charges a bit more, but they tend to have a lot of good stuff. I really hope it ships out soon, I wanna get this shit done. I really hope the person I'm gifting for loves the stuff I got them.
>>149639916
Fuck, I know that feeling. That site has some good stuff, but sometimes it feels like an eternity by the time they ship.
>>149642232
I normally use amiami in /ss/, havent used Nippon Yassan before.
Any idea how long it usually takes and is this typical for them? Glad I got EMS instead of SAL
>>149642329
Nippon yasan is good when it comes to content, but when it comes to shipping out, it's a mixed bag. Their schedule can be a bit strange. Since you got it on the 7th, I'm sure it'll ship out soon, so don't stress too much.
>>149641221
I sent the list on Sunday/Monday.
If it didn't come through yet, I'll resend it.
My gifts to send out have been arriving.Ordered two copies of a manga I am including so I can keep one for myself. :3
Now to embarrass myself with a hideous wrap job.
Is anybody else more afraid of their giftee not posting anything than they are of being grinched? I can handle not getting anything but it'll be depressing to just throw something into the void.
I hope my anon likes my dismal attempts at tying ribbon.
>>149642924
I see your point. I'm not sure which scares me more.
>participated last 3 years
>on a ship this year
M-merry Christmas guys.
>>149642545
I wonder if santaloli didn't see it.
MSfromNJVGfromAZKHfromCA
I managed to finish all the cards last week. I was going to send them later but I went ahead and sent them a few days ago since I figured I was going to get busier as Thanksgiving approaches.
Merry Christmas. Getting the lewd card printed at the print shop actually was not as embarrassing as I thought it would be.
>>149638341
I haven't received a match yet, there's nothing in either my inbox or spam folders. I emailed him yesterday (didn't realize we were supposed to get matches already). Anyone else have this problem? Is the
[email protected]
email the best place to reach the guy organizing all of this? I want to send a gift but I can't right now.
>>149643812
Yes, if you haven't received a match yet mail that address.But if it's blondefag you can fuck off.
>>149643812
It should be, yes.
BWfromthe U.K.andJMfromCanadayour cards are being made and your gifts will be ready in a few days, so everything will be sent next week.
no initials=no gifts Im just gonna grinch again since Im moving soon anyways
Would you rather receive apparel, a mug or a decorative cushion of your favorite series?
JfromNSWyour gifts have been ordered and are on their way to me.
>>149644367
As appealing as a mug is, I would never dare use it. At least the cushion is supposed to be just a decoration.
HeyPHofOH, hope you're having a nice autumn!NOW CHECK YOU FUCKING MAIL
>>149644367
I prefer the mug.
Anime cusions are something I never liked.
ARP from Spain I got something for you ready, but I'm thinking if I should add something.
EJ from France I like Spice and Wolf do you want something from that?
>>149644367
I have a tons of mugs so I'd rather get cushion
>>149644367
Hmm, I think I would prefer the mug, it's the most practical.
>>149644340
Fuck off. I and many others don't do an initial roll call to keep the secret in Secret Santa.
>>149644518
How does posting initials stop things from being a secret?
>>149644367
Mug
>>149644498
>ARP from Spain
That's definitely me. But anon, if you already have something that's okay, you don' need to add any more. I mean, I'm on poverty bracket and I shouldn't ask for something expensive. Whatever you got, it'll be fine for sure.
>>149644594
Oh I'm so excited, my first /ss/ response.
It was a give away from a convention, so I want to add something to it or I would feel bad anon.
>>149644708
It's okay if you want to add something, I mean. not that I'm going to complai about it or something... but again, I'll be fine with whatever you send, it doesn't matter if it's something you got from a convention. As long as you send it with love, everything will be perfect.
>Working on cards
This is hell.
>>149644907
While working on cards, always remember the #1 rule about anime christmas cards: don't think too much about your shitty drawing skills, the only thing that matters is love.
>>149644983
Well, they look like crap either way.
>>149645092
Dude, you should look how mine looks.
I was supposed to draw Homura dressed as Santa, and it looks nothing like her. But I'm sure everyone here cares only about the love you put on the card, whatever it looks good or not.
>>149644983
I wish I could.
I always end up doing bad edits with photoshopwith love
I'm hoping to get a response back from the santas this weekend with my anons updated wishlist, if not then I'll buy stuff I think they might want and hope for the best. I've already waited close to a week for the response and if I'm ordering from overseas I don't think I can wait much longer.
>>149644983
Although they're filled with love, being mediocre is worse, I don't even have the excuse to say "I don't draw"
>>149644907
I'm working on some minimalist templates right now. Once that's done I can print them and piece them together. I wonder if I should print them on cardstock or use construction paper.
>>149644983
>>149645092
>>149645199
That's why I'm going with a minimalist style this year. It should turn out much better than my lame drawings.
>>149645451
Yea, waiting much longer might cut things pretty close.
>>149645200
I'm drawing them by myself. And I could probably do some edits that would definitely look better, but I prefer hand-made things. Pic related is one of the cards I'm going to send and it doesn't look good at all but love is the only thing that matters. Also, dear /a/nons from Canada, don't open the spoiler because this card could be for some of you.
I only got 1 done. I'm hurrying to get them done by mid November so I can ship them early.
>>149644546
Because you signed up, and it's expected that you will be reciving a present.
>worried that I hadn't seen my initials in any of the threads
>check my mail to find a letter from my /ss/
>tell me not to worry and that they're doing their best
My /ss/ is the best, I don't even care what I get I know it's coming with a bunch of love.
>>149645505
If that's the case, then you should practice a lot and I'm sure your skills will be better next year!
>>149645522
Minimalist style is also a good option, well done.
>>149645624
That makes no sense.
>>149645522
>doing minimalist style cut-outs right fucking now because I can't draw
>they look like shit.
I should just retry, but making just one takes so fucking much time.
>>149645628
Now you two should see each other andhold handsif he's okay with that.
>>149645710
What, minimalist? Making 2 shouldn't take much longer than 1 if you're using the same picture.
>>149645712
They didn't put a return address so sadly I have no idea where they are.
>>149645536
Don't get me wrong, I like hand-made things, but I just can't bring myself to do it. It's a weird double-standard that I have on most things in life.
The drawing isn't the worst thing I've seen, mind.
>>149645536
I would love to receive this. Good job anon.
>>149645781
I'm cutting the parts out by tracing a normal, printed image onto thick colorful paper (I tape the printed image onto the paper, trace the part I want with a pen and cut out the traced part). Every major color is a different colored paper.
Maybe I'm doing it wrong.
>>149645791
And thus, the beautiful love story between the two anons ended abruptly. That was fast.
>>149645834
I prefer hand-made stuff, but if some anon sends me a card with a photoshopped drawing or something, I'll be fine with it. Whatever I recieve, I'm sure it'll be beautiful.
>>149645909
No that sounds about right. If I use construction paper, I'd be doing the same thing, minus the tracing part.
>>149645874
Thanks, I did my best.
But still, I'm a bit worried because that's supposed to beHomura Akemiand I think it doesn't look like her at all. I hope my dear canadian anon will love it anyways.
First scarf is about halfway done. Probably going to finish it this weekend.
Would you rather receive stuff all from one show or from multiple shows on your wishlist? I was thinking of having the card + stuff all come from the same series but I'm wondering if that's usual or not.
2 out of 4 cards done so farand my room already looks messy as fuck because of crafting those.
What worries me is that I still haven't recieved my 5th and last assignment although I was told I would get it as soon as the rest of the assignments were done.
>>149646080
My first thought wasTomoko, but after I saw QB I thoughtHomura.
>>149646118
Variety is nice. But keep in mind 1 large gift would have more impact.
DidSCinSapporoever post what shows/characters they like? I need something to work with.Are you the anon in the YoI threads saying they were going to a doujin event?
>>149646095
I swear to God, one year I'll recieve one of your famous scarfs. I need them on my life, it's starting to be really cold where I live.
>>149646198
Now that you mention it, you're right, looks likeTomokoin some way. Good thing I added the alien cat, that way my anon will not be confused.
>>149646187
I wanna see messy rooms picsSo i don't feel that bad about my crafty mess
>>149646353
Are you inMN,NY,MI,CT,Poland, orGermany?
If so this might be your year.
If not, you can always wait until I have open signups (usually mid December).
>>149640924
Who doesn't?
>>149646441
>no initials
The tease is real.
>>149646441
None of those;-;
But that's okay, I'll wait 'till december then.
>>149646441
Are you doing the scards as cards or presents?
>>149638341
One of the store's emailed me that one of my orders are only getting in stock at the end of November.
It's being sent from inside of Europe but I'm still getting pretty anxious about being able to send my gift in time.
Since my /ss/ didn't put who they liked from bakemonogatari at all I hope they likethe fire sisters.
>>149646095
I wish I would get a scarf from you but you are only doing the poverty bracket, aren't you?
>>149646620
I'm sending one in addition to my gift (I'm in the 100-150 bracket this year) and one with each of my cards.
It was weird going from poverty bracket to upper end, since I was used to "I have basically no merch" to "I have all the common merch of my favorite characters that doesn't suck" was an interesting experience buyfagging.
>>149646660
Of course they do.
Everybody loves sisters.
i wanted to participate this year but i don't know how or when to sign up : (
>>149646697
Which of >>149646441 are cards?
>>149646660
Get them snake merch, they were probably ashamed of their worst taste so they didn't write that snake's their waifu.
>>149646761
Time travel.
>>149646761
Sign ups start in sept.
Is it possible for me to change my address at this point?
>>149646900
It's worth a try. Just contact santaloli or faggot.
>>149646900
Short answer, yes.
Long answer, don't do it because that would mean trouble for our beloved santas, the loli and the fag.
I don't really think this'll get me anything but I thought it'd be worth a shot.DPfromTorontoIf you're around please either send your updated wishlist through the santas or post it in the thread. I'd really like to make sure I get everything you want but I need more details to work with. Otherwise I'm buying your stuff by the end of the weekend and hoping you like it.
>>149646997
I guess I'll just hope that my cards come in before christmas week then.
I never participate but I love these threads. They're so comfy.
>>149638341
1 card done out of 5.
This is hard.
>>149647171
You have to believe in the spirit of christmas.
>>149647177
I know, right. And people told me threads would become worse after the assignments, this looks pretty good and comfy.
Got card stock and colored pencils. Ready to draw some cute girls!
>>149646795
I think I wrote I liked the monogatari series, and snake is my favorite.
JNfromOH. I have not forgotten about you. I just haven't quite figured out what to send. I wish I had some references of what you have to prevent sending duplicate gifts though.IVfromONandVfromNHI am still practicing with the cards. I can't fucking draw, but I will try my best.
>>149647411
>>149647399
>>149644367
Cushions suck, either go full dakimakura or fuck it. Shirts and mugs are sweet.
Scarves are even sweeter, though.
>>149647393
Christmas is the only time of the year I take pencils. In any other time I want to draw and give color to something, I use shop programs.
Where do you guys recommend for customized mugs? I have a coupon for Shutterfly, but I'm not sure if they consider Chinese girl cartoons as copyright infringement or not.
Is it bad that I just jizzed on a scale figure and sent it out?
Anyone else learning new crafts just for their cards? Right now I'm learning how to make a pop-up book.
>>149647622
Go for Zazzle.
Or you can also try on "La Tostadora", but that's a spanish website.
Finished 3/4 card templates. The last one will be the most difficult.
>>149647649
As long as you're not sending it to Spain, do whatever you want, dude.
Also, people always accept extra love with their presents.
>>149647719
Ganbare, anon-kun!
i finished my gift but the card is a struggle, I don't want to dissapoint my anon ;_;
>>149647846
I'm sure you won't disappoint him.
Your anon will surely love you and your work in a totally non-gay way.
>>149647781
Thanks.
>>149646441
>one of them might be me
>>149647940I hate when the file says "gif" but it doesn't actually move
>>149647495
Nadeko is cute! CUTE!
Did I miss the secret s/a/nta thread this year again? It's the third year, for chirst's sake.
>>149648168
>thread
You missed multiple threads.
Add it to your filter, dummy. It's in mine all year long.
>>149648168
Damn, better luck next year? Sign ups start in sept and stop near the end of oct. So there's always plenty of time.
>>149648168
Use the fucking archive, nigga.
>>149648168
Newfag here.
I didn't even know about /ss/ until a couple of months ago, but I still saw the threads when there was time to participate.
Badly, I still don't know what to order. I don't have as much to make as I thought I did, so I'll likely be fine, but I still have a lot to do.
Would you like a box of treats along with a box with your gifts or is that overdoing it? I mean two separate boxes sent.
>>149648331
Order an onahole.
That's something that always works as a perfect gift.
>>149648407
To clarify, this is a general question, not something I forgot to quote.
>>149646796
Route Y Araragi, please kill yourself
>>149646749
Araragi, please stop
>>149648407
Extra things are always appreciated.
Like, I was supposed to send a gift to someone and a card to another someone, but I'll end up sending gifts and cards to both of them.
>>149648168
You gotta check every weekend, starting with September. Or, as other Anons say, Archives are your friends.
>>149647940
>Don't honk
Why so serious?
>>149640895
I got a Japanese M shirt (that I would never, ever fit into) two years ago and I still cherished the thought. If you're getting a shirt, I wouldn't get a pricey one just in case.
I got to hold a laserdisc today thanks to shopping for my anon. It was pretty cool.
>>149646401
If you got some free desk space left, you've already won this game.
>>149648572
>>149648681
That sounds cool, but be careful with those laser things.
>>149648818
Oh, I never took the disc out of it's sleeve. But getting to see it's size and weight in person was fun.
>>149647411
I have a few nendos, but none of the series' that they're from are on my list. Shop away, Santa-san.
I'm making all of my cards lewder this year. 4 of them have visible vagina bones and one has a toplessmalecharacter.
Is the host of the homothread card exchange here? How long before assignments are given out? I send in an application on the 7th and haven't heard back yet
>>149648922
>a topless male character
>>149648968
I asked them a couple a weeks ago when the deadline was and they said the 20th or around that time.
>>149648922
H-how lewd are christmas cards allowed to be?
>>149649023
My cards are all worksafe at least. Just skimpy outfits with the odd visible vagina bones, navel orarmpit.
Now for the V/a/lentines cards, I sometimes push t further.
>>149648922
Last year I had one topless with ribbon bondage. You'll be fine.I hope I didn't get them in trouble, they never posted it.
>>149649023
It depends.
If you live by yourself, no problem at all.
If you live with your parents, then lewd cards could be a problem if they saw them before you.
>>149649104
Sounds awesome.
>>149649081
>armpit
Hey there, that shit could get me into jail if customs open it
Pls no lewds for me
>>149649171
Too late.
>>149649272
I want assault pre-magic madoka (sexually)
>>149649023
I'm sending ani-indirect kissuto a few anons.
>>149648968
>>149649081
You've made me curious, I hope your cards get posted.Specially the male one
>>149649382
>>149649496
If you'reEBfromQuebec, maybe you'll get to see it first-hand.
>>149649382
But what if your anon kisses the card in the same spot you did? H-he could become pregnant! Would you take the responsability?
SZfromCA
Got your stuff on order buddy.
Kinda shot myself in the foot since I forgot I had a 500+ dollar order on amiami already.
Any anons fromBalkanparticipating?

Is the address at the bottom of your response e-mail good for sending to, or should I wait for your card with hopefully a return address?
>>149649842FUfromCKYfromOU
Fuck my /ss/. Everything is out of the bracket range...fuck you now you're getting what I like.
Question: How do the major shipping companies feel about drawing/writing on boxes they ship?
Can I draw or print porn out on them? Can I write lewd things? I would imagine nudity isn't allowed, but I guess I might be wrong.
Additionally, how they will the response to various things I write on the package? Things like:
"Contents: 1 loli, live"
"No Illegal Drugs"
"Over 20 lbs of pussy and ass andlove"!"
"Not drugs, please do not search (or you'll find the drugs!)!"
"Illegal anime porn"
etc.
I imagine it'll be fine
>>149649496
>Specially the male one
Seconding this.
>>149650069
>spoiler
Enjoy christmas in prison.
>>149650069
They would probably open the package and check whats inside.
>>149650069
Why don't you try it and find out.
If you want to send your super funny package, do it in a box in a box. Chances are outright writing it's illegal will send it into the furnace.
>>149650069
I'd imagine anything obscene or offensive would be denied by the post office. The drug thing might be taken as a joke, or it could really get stuck in customs for god knows how long.
I've seen people draw on the outside of boxes and cards, but my advice would be to keep it clean.
I really hope people in $10-25 bracket don't hate handmade. I'm not sure how many things to include to make it fair though.
>>149648922
First time I did Valentines exchange I did a topless man with vagina bones and armpit. Second year I drew a girl putting acarrotin aplush rabbit's bum.There was some bondage involved.
>>149650069
>no illegal drugs
>they open it and find something far worse
>>149650284
When can you sign up for valentine cards?
>>149650364
In January during the late gift posting someone will start organising it, but it's a little less reliable than these. You have a lot less time to get your shit together.
>>149650284
Poorfag bracket here.
I love handmade things.
>>149643812
Still no email. I do have the confirmation that he got my entry, but then I never got anything else as far as I can tell. I want to participate!
>>149650060
What tier are you in? And what is the price of stuff they are asking for?
This minimalist card is starting to look not so minimal.
>>149650585
Am all for.giving but I want to stay in bracket this year. I got other people that needs gifts ;-;25-50 and some shit is 70 and up/not even released
>>149650689
There must be something that is within tier. Prize figure, manga, light novel? Or maybe some accessories like a keychain.
>>149650666
Then you just need to take it up another level.
AT from Finlandcan you please be more specific with what you want
>>149650947
I mean it doesn't have much detail, it's just using more colors (6) than I thought.
Just got into the navy so I can buy you fuckers gifts next year. Not sure which tier I'll be in due to not participating before, living in a shithole country and inexperience as a buyfag though.
Good luck, nice holidays and don't you fucking die on me next year.
>>149648856
duly noted
>>149650884
>your Anon put Sora no Woto
>this is what you find
MSfromNJlooks like I might have to go under the bracket. I'm sorry.
>>149651368
What tier are you in?
>>149651287
Heh, yea some figures aren't of the greatest quality.I did put down sora no woto.
DPfromTorontowhy do you have such shit taste?
I've missed Secret s/a/nta every year for the past 4 years, this year I really want to participate.
Is it too late again?
>>149651577
Too early mate
>>149651610
How do I participate? I want to make some anon happy and have myself surprised with a pretty gift.
>>149651642
When the threads start in about 10 months, there will be instructions in the OP for how to join
>>149651684
>10 months
>>149651423
Even the manga is out of print, you demon.
If I get my cards done this weekend I might even sign up for homo cards. This is just too much fun and I dont want it to be over yet.
>>149651368
>I have the same person probably
If its who I think it is, you are better off making multiple things at home since that person seems to have everything already.
>>149651577
Maybe you should use filters so you see when the threads appear or check the archive.
>>149651706
First thread this year was 9/13 (>>147140938). So about 10 months until /ss/ 2017
>>149651577
Do you really browse /a/ so little that you missed like 10 different 72 hour threads, every weekend, for a month and a half?
>>149651368
>MSfromNJ
Could be me. Don't worry too much about it, I hope you're not in any financial trouble anon
>>149651786
I'm 26 years old now and don't have as much time for 4chan as I used to. Please don't bully!
I. I feel violated by EMS. The feeling of needing another gift's worth of money to ship it over to America. I wish there was more time so I can just be a greedy motherfucker and go SAL like usual.
Everything has been purchased. Now we wait.JSfromVAwould you eat cookies if I sent some?
>>149651856
There's always the archive. And even then, there were plenty of chances to sign up.
>>149649595
Dear lord, that's me. I look forwards to what you have in store for me anon.500 dollars on figsI'm sure it's because you're ordering a whole lot for yoursplendid taste in PVC girls and anime
>>149638341JDfromLeafland
Your gift has been taken care of, the cunts are sending out on Dec 1.
>>149646441

I'm excited, but at the same time it seems like there's a bizarrely high ratio of Connecticut /a/nons.
>>149652113
Jesus christ spoiler that shit is fucking spooky
What's the shipping time like at CDJapan? I found a nice looking item, but not sure if I can get it here in time.
>>149652294
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/guide/help/shipping/available_shipping_methods
>>149651287
SnW was on my list.
I'd be overjoyed to receive that.
>>149652293
>>149652373
Thanks, but I guess I should be more specific - do they actually get it out of their warehouse and in the mail quickly. I've shopped from a few places where the shipping was great, but they took nearly a week to box it up first.
Question
Are we supposed to send them so they arrive on christmas or can we send them like, a few days or so before?
>>149652463
You're suppose to hand deliver it to them the day of Christmas.
>>149652463
How many countries do you think ship on Christmas day?
>>149652463
send things as soon as possible
anon can wait until Christmas to open it
>>149652463
It's best to send them early and anons wait until Christmas to open them like good little girls.
BCfromMARPHfromQC
Your cards were sent yesterday. Might come a bit early, but better than being late I suppose.There's also a humble gift attached to them, hope you like it
>SS and I share the same waifu
It's going to hurt me sending something of Illya to you,AmandaofFL.
>>149652514
I'm sending it to Canada, so I didn't think much of it.
>>149652516
That sounds reasonable enough. Thanks.
>>149652575
Fuck, I mixed up a card wishlist withJ of TX, don't bully me.
>>149652463
You want everything to arrive by christmas eve at the latest. With how crazy shipping times can be in december, it's best to ships things as soon as they're ready.
>>149652575
>Amanada

>>149652774
>>149643217KHfromCAhere, I got your card safe and sound!
>>149652802
I doubt anyone would care if the box is a little banged up, so long as the item inside is safe.
>>149652900
Fuck off.
Is it considered poor taste to get an oppai mousepad of anon's waifu?
>>149652900
Feel free to figure it out!
whatanime.ga
>>149652961
depends if they asked for one
>>149652984
They did not, but there's a limit of what I can get related to his waifu in my price bracket. I don't want to gift him shit, either.
>>149652961
If they say lewd is okay, go for it. If not, I probably wouldn't.
Does this look a little too detailed to you? It will probably be a pain to put together.
>>149652869
Well, it's an old item where I feel that the package is a bit of the appeal for a collector. I imagine people who collect stuff like vinyl records or old toys, etc care about the package too, at least a bit.
>>149653243
Nope looks good anon.
>>149649595
i wonder how you did it with my awful list and taste. good job.
>>149652961
I think it's okay, as long as the mousepad is tasteful. Well, as tasteful as a boob mousepad can be.
>>149653243
Add Nyano's orange and black, simplify any jaggy bits on the tree.
>>149653243
At least give nyanko-sensei his head markings. Then it's perfect.
Hey SantaLoli, remember this
>>149653309
No one cares, fuck off.
>>149653309
Fuck off, faggot.
>>149653309
Fuck off, bitch.
>>149653309
oh no
>>149653261
From what I see in the buyfag threads, people don't mind if the figure boxes are a little banged up. And I feel the same.
>>149653296
>>149653302
Yea, I was thinking of that, but 8 colors seems like a bit much for something that's supposed to be minimal.
>>149653476
Reuse Natsume's hair colour and the dark grey?
>>149653476
Thanks for the reassurances, but I've got it all ordered anyway. Guess my anon will just have to put up with extra.
>>149653309
Fuck off
>>149653476
I think you're thinking a little too hard on the minimal part.
>>149653647
Maybe. It is my first time doing this kind of thing.
>>149652643
4/5 of my assignments are girls. The one guy I got is gay. None of my assignments listed a single female character. I only know how to draw cute girls.
>>149653937
>draw a girl
>call it a guy
>>149653937
At least you can draw. I'm getting crayons for mine.
>>149653937
Just draw really pointy chins and huge hands.
>sketch 1/6 cards tonight
That's enough right?
>>149653937
Are you Persona Quest again? Draw Teds.
>>149653937
3/4 of my cards are male characters, but 3 of them did list at least 1 female.
>>149654059
Just be sure to send them with enough time to arrive by Christmas!I haven't even started working on mine.
>>149652111
>>149653275
Your list was actually pretty solid, and don't worry anon we have pretty similar tastes actually. I'm more of an Idolm@ster guy instead of LL but Nico and Maki are my favorites too.
>>149654059
Depends how much time you have. I have to finish 6 this weekend since I won't have time soon. But if I did 2 per weekend I could still deliver them fine on Dec, so you're good anon.
>>149654242
Truly, 2016 is such a wonderful year. Thanks Seismic.
>>149653937
I wish I had gotten more girls, I only got one and the style was fairly simple.That's why I like joining the homo cards too
>>149654242
>>149653275
Wait. Is there anotherSZfromCAhere? I thought my initials were pretty unique.
I spent about $25 on various japanese sweets and snacks to split among my card assignments. I hope my anons enjoy them.
>>149654236
I should be fine, I work fast! I'm worried about my extra projects though. But I should be able to send them out at the end of the month.
I hope.
>>149654623
I'm sure they will.
De Anda from TX, your getting nothing but monogatari because its the easiest of the choices..FORGIVE ME,
HOPE YOU LIKE SNEK
>>149653309
Why would you tell me I was signed up SantaLoli?
>>149654628
Same here, I still need to draw up some patterns for my extra projects. But that doesn't take long compared to the amount of time it takes to actually make them.
>>149654555
Don't worry I'm sure you like Neps a lot more anon.nice digits too
>>149640606
pls respond anon, I need an answer soon, it's been 4 days and Santaloli hasn't responded.
I finished the pencil scribbles of all but 1 of my cards so far, but I still have to ink and color them.
Presents for recipient and special extra gifts for card recipients have been ordered, just waiting for them to arrive.
Did the person organizing fujoshit cards ever get back to anyone?
Any anons from Argentina participating? Just curious
>>149655209
That looks really great, anon!
>>149654864
Ah. Then it is me.
No one loves my Neptune more than I love my Neptune.
>>149655209
Those look great.
I want to try making my ss a themed stuffed animal. Would that be weird?
>>149655374
Go for it.
Still got to get my gift, but I know what I'm getting. Then I got to find a good cookie recipe and get it all sent out.
JfromCanada
I'll start your gift next week and I'll try to ship it as fast as I can. You didn't gave me much to work with tho so I'll try my best !Hope you like handmade stuff ;_;EBfromCanadaJTfromCanadaJJfromCanadaandMWfromCanada
All cards are gonna be finish in one or two weeks max, so expect them soon !
Went over budget for my anon.
We like the same things so it was hard to resist buying stuff for myself as well. I did score a cute Tippy shirt though. I hope you love your stuffDA from CA!
>>149655209
I haven't heard back from them yet either.
>>149653937
You could try going full on Clamp
Grandpa started drawing two days ago and he wasn't satisfied with the first drawing (the character looks comically off model) and I said it was still alright.
Then he said "I cannot let such a drawing pass, not with my pride as an artist."
And then the absolute madman drew all ten of them in just two days while also doing his other projects (huge oil painting, painting the new front gate, getting the furnace to work better, small bodywork on his car...). They turned out very, very well.
Now it is up to me to color them.

I personally believe it does even if we're essentiallyAlp Slavs.

Should I play it safe and get EMS or get SAL registered? My bracket is 10-25 but found something real fucking neato that's a tad big.
>>149657298
I have to use bags.

Also, where is the best place to buy artbooks?
>>149646348Yeah, that's me.
Are you one of my cardanons? I'm pretty sure I put a card wishlist down. If you send the organizers an e-mail I can have a list sent back to you.
>>149657745
Mandarake has some, but shipping will be expensive. So I would check all the amazons first (jp, ca, com) because their shipping won't kill your wallet.

Already did.

He can get pretty scary.
>>149657682
Death will have to take him fighting. His medical record is legendary. Sepsis, blood loss, heat shock, lung embolism, aorta thrombosis, atherosclerosis, severe gale infection, hernia at two places, severe nerve inflammation near his trapezius muscle, cut his thumb up in three places with a circular saw and sewed it together on his own, had a nail up his foot and broke the other foot on the way to the hospital etc.
>>149657792
Yeah, I'm sending you a card. I'll email the organizers, but I only got your name & address. Although I suppose I now know one thing you like.
>>149657822
Damn, he sounds bad ass.
Should I be super scared that I havent seen my name or country anywhere in the last 2 threads??
>>149658181
Nah, some people just won't post initials at all.
>>149658232
yeah I get that but I havent even seen my country
>5 cards
>40% completed
>Completely stuck on some of them.
At least already got my anon's gift ordered. And finally started watching Shirobako.
>>149658181
Some, actually most people, won't post initials.Just joking, you have been grinched, sorry :^)
>>149658267
Maybe you're the only participant from your country. There was only one anon from Hungary participating in previous years.
>>149658267
Which country, anon?
>>149658267
How is that relevant? Where are you from?

Don't worry f@m, I have 6 so we can suffering together.
Do you guys put your email in your cards so your anons can get in touch with you if they wish, or is it better to let them get your email from santaloli if they wish to speak with you?
>>149652836
Sounds good, hope you like it!

I'm about half done 4 cards now.
Does anybody know of a place that will let you create wrapping paper even with copyrighted images on them? I had a good idea, but was turned down by a few companies for using a copyrighted image.
>>149638341
am i too late to give anything away this year? when do these giveaways begin towards my fellow /a/tards?
>>149658730
Not yet. Sorry. Found out my post office basically is only open while I'm at work. Gonna get one tomorrow morning.
I'm going to bed. Good night, /a/.
waiting for pay day to buy gifts; 1 card is almost done, just struggling to find a decent image ofGuts' mask

So I ended up going SAL.
I'll make it on time for the Christmas miracle.
Well, I was waiting until I had all of my assignments to post initials but it's probably not gonna happen for a while.JSfromMAandMSfromCanada, I got you. My cards are pretty simple but I put my love into them.
>>149659933
Looking forward for it.

I can't draw, so I generally just use photoshop for my cards. Are there any other transparent hats, santa sacks, or reindeer antlers I could use?
>>149659908
Sign ups start in sept and close in late oct.
SZfromCADAfromCAJFPfromCA
Al your gifts have been ordered since a week ago and most of them havve arrived I am working on some cards for all of you as an extra and will probably be shipping them late this month or early dec
>>149660204
Not mocking your methods, just a tip. If you want to put a little more effort into cards, an easy thing to do:
>find christmas image on gelbooru or pixiv
>replace head with your anon's waifu
>make a new layer and trace over with a 1px light gray brush
>print out 1px light gray lines and go over it with a good pen or fine tip sharpie
>color it in with colored pencils, sharpies, pens, whatever
Technically you're stealing someone elses work, but its really easy to make a nice looking hand made card when you're a talentless hack like myself.
>>149652575
>>149652611
Treat me well anon!
I sent my anon a toothbrush last year. I wonder if he used it.

guess i'll have to wait till next year
>>149660327
Thanks for the tip anon, that sounds like a great idea.
FUCK FUCK FUCK NO INITIALS IN ANY ARCHIVED THREADS ITS ALL OVER
>>149660725
You gotta search better.HAfromHA, got you covered.
JHfromFrance. I ordered your gift a few days ago. I'll update you again when I send the package.
I live in Romania so I don't know how long it will take to get there but hopefully it won't be late.
>>149660327
>little more effort
Not him, but I use photoshop for my cards even when,in my opinion, it would be ten times faster, easier and probably cheaper to do draw them myself. It takes me >1 day per card between designing, vectoring, finding a suitable reference image, effects, etc. But I prefer to do it that way because I like them to look extra nice.

>posting fake initials so anon gets his hopes up
3 out of 4 of the packages forTM from AK's present arrived today! I've been brainstorming card ideas all week and I finally know how I'll be constructing their gay ass card.
>>149661401
If you haven't already received your gifts, it's over. Everyone else is posting random initials and locations for the sole purpose of keeping up the charade to see how long the people that aren't in the know stay hopeful.
>>149661401
>tfw got double grinched last year
I got grinched by my first Anon, and then the second Anon who was supposed to de-grinch me also grinced me.
>>149658579
Are you ok with lewd.
>>149661567
i feel you anon. I got grinched too and my initials were never posted. I swore I wouldn't do SS again but I couldnt help it.If you get grinched I'll send you something.

same, quadruple grinched if cards count.../toy/ also grinched me
and it's looking like I'll be grinched this year too

Mat? I don't think so then. I did mention SW and GuP.
I wish I would have gotten an /ak/-type fan (not that I really associate with /ak/ threads). I got a guy who I only really know of one thing on his list from, but i'm doing my best regardless.
>want to post my shitty cards here so Anons can call them shit and motivate me to get better
>that would spoil them for my Anons
>>149662684
No need anon, we know they are shitty.
Would a drama CD or soundtrack be good gift? They're pretty much the only merch I can find for series my giftee listed.
>>149662880
Sound great given that you anon knows Japanese.
>>149662910
>given that you anon knows Japanese
Yeah, that's the part I'm worried about too. I also don't feel like bothering them again, I already asked a mountain of questions.
>>149662880
See if there's any character song CDs, much better for non-speakers.
>>149662927
If he can't into Japanese then an drama cd is mostly useless. How about an OST, chara songs, artbooks etc?
Just dropping by and reassuring Anon from Switzerland that i got him
Sent out my cards yesterday, but I'm not posting initials, sue me
if I get fucking grinched again im signing up for god damn plebbit secret santa
>tfw it took me 10 minutes to get this screenshot because my PC is a cunt and decides to BSOD every 5 seconds
Fuck MSI right in the ear. Have my Shinku.
Ro from CA reporting in for duty!

>>149663241
please, go ahead.
AAnd I have just finished my cards.
>>149664315
T-three out of fiveand then there's the one I include on the giftisn't that bad, right?
>>149664344
Nah, it's ok.forgot SantaFag's oneOh well, just another all-nighter
>>149664385
I was planning on doing all-nighter last night but when the lines on paper started jumping around and I couldn't tell where to cut, I figured that maybe I should continue on morning
>>149664480
Please avoid dying while making cards anon.
>>149664500I almost died this year already. I'm not gonna die that easily.
Gonna draw more this night too.
>>149662619We talked last weekend, silly.Do not worry, you are in (questionably good) hands, but hands nonetheless.
Meanwhile, no sign of my initials, but w/e I doubt most peoples' get posted anyway.
>>149664523
Godspeed anon.
>>149664559
majority of anons actually get posted, odds are not in your favor my man. Prepare for the worst.
I wonder if doing a cross-stitch is a good idea as addition to the gift.
>>149664559
Oh, I'm very sorry. I thought I was on your cards assignments. Thanks anon!Also, did you receive the email with my correct address?
>>149664559
>>149664667
I am doing two gifts and ten cards and have not posted any initials.
Most of my gifts arrived this week though (I spent over $120 on shipping). Does anyone else feel the need to wrap it quickly or else you will want to keep it?Except for the figure of the worst girl in the series. There is going to be a thesis included on why she is shit and why my favourite girl is best.
>>149664678
I dont see how anyone wouldnt like that.
>>149664678
-i would fucking love a cross-stitch, even if I wouldn't have anywhere to put it.
>>149664719
Yeah, I did.
>>149664760
Yeah, parting with what I've got for >>149664719 is gonna be pretty tough.
>>149660785
>JHfromFrance
That's me!
Thank you, i'm sure you've chosen wonderful gifts for me!was it you who posted a few weeks ago that you had no idea on what to choose for me?
>>149664957
Yes.
>>149664949
>Yeah, parting with what I've got for >>149664719 (You) is gonna be pretty tough.
>>149664966
Well I hope it wasn't too hard since you told me it was fine if i didn't add stuff on it
>>149664949
Oh god that almost happened to me last year on /toy/ secret santa.
I've been waiting week for a thread.
I found a dvd series of one of anons favorite series in his native language. Its only missing volume 5, what should I do?
>>149665085
I shouldn't get your hopes up though, it's nothing super special, just pretty dear to me.
>>149665277
>in his native language
Please do not buy dubbed anime.
>>149665289
They could mean subbed in his native language? A lot of DVDs have dual audio
>>149665277
Don't waste money on fucking localised DVDs.
They're literally 480p shit that don't even make a good collector item since Japanese DVDs have better extras.
Since people are scared,GVfromNetherlandsandSBfromGermanyyou are in good hands. I think i might even overshoot the bracket because I find it fun to give stuff.
>>149665346
>GVfromNetherlands
Oh. I may have him too.Please don't buy them same stuff I got
>>149665341
>>149665289
>>149665277
Its jap dub with local subs. Its 15 year old series.and I already bought it
>>149665346
>>149665373
I have him too.
>>149665346
>>149665373
>>149665404
And this is the story of how Anon got three copies of same thing.
>>149665373
>>149665404
Yeah you can choose to enter more times. I hope he doesnt grinch others. I can drive to his house.
>>149665435
I'm going to make something handmade, so no worries.
>>149665437
I always wanted to visit Netherlands.
>>149665485
you should. But dont visit Amsterdam or Rotterdam its full of (Sand)Niggers. Go to Haarlem or The Hague. I dont think we'll buy any same presents.
>>149664949
Did he ask for Aria stuff?
>>149665572
Yes. but later we got more info.
How many people got him. wow?
>>149665603
Nah, I just made a guess based on the images he was using.
I'm so sorry if you have to part with your Aria merch. It was a stellar show.
Do you guys think someone would appreciate a commissioned piece of art of their waifu printed on canvas?
All but one package are in the my state. Sincerely hoping my anon likes everything.
>>149665669
I wouldlovethe shit out of that.
>>149665669
Depends on how big it would be.
>>149665669
I would love something like that personally, thoughtful unconventional gifts like that are the bestin my opinion.
>>149665669
Absolutely.
Even if it turns out badly it will be good. I sign up for cards to get pictures of my waifu.
>>149661327
I do at least 4 gift a year. I don't mean to be an ass, but I got one grinch, every damned year. Seems to be a 50~100 dollar tier lurker.
There's also lot more card grinch last year then I anticipated. I sent out 7 and got 1 back. Fun.
>no tracking info from proxy
I just want to get it before next weekend but I'm not honestly expecting it now.
>>149660176
>MS
doki doki
For cards, do grinchers get blacklisted?
How long does one wait after Christmas to consider themselves grinched?
So signups are already over I presume?
>/ss/ thread
>there aren't any shotas fucking older ladies
hehe i bought my anon a loot crate hehe
>my country wasnt mentioned in any of the threads
>>149665437
Go deliver his present in person
>>149666140
I read some people receiving theis gifts not only weeks, but month later after christmas. So, never lose your hope and consider yourself grinched only if you haven't received anything in, let's say six months.
>>149666373
For the 4815162342 time on those threads, yes, you're late. Wait until next year.
>>149665437
>>149665485
>>149665556
>>149665373
>>149665346GVhere, I've already bought all the gifts for my anons.
We could chill and watch animu together.I hope you all received my e-mail with additional information, sorry for the fuckup ;_;
Sketches for 3/4 cards complete. I've been practicing painting just for this, so I am looking forward to coloring them.
>Cutest video game developer of 2016.
>Top tier ahoge.
>A very cute sleepy eyed character.
I need to speed through some manga before deciding what to do for my last card.
>>149667016
I received it, anon. Don't worry.
One question:Orange Planet, Himeya or Aria Company? I'm going to buy the materials for the gift, so this is important.
>>149667016
sounds like a plan I messaged your phone number.
>>149661569
I am fine with Lewd ( there is a chance that my parent might be next to me when i open it )
>>149667110
I'd preferAria companybut I don't mind at all /a/non.
>>149661569
>>149667267
ignore that, I am super OK with lewd
>>149658654
I just realise you might be the first person I saw, that get the name
>>149667016
Well, now that I have the chance, might as well let you know that I have ordered one part of your gift and will pay for another later today.Do you mind soundtrack CDs? I was eyeballing some
For anyone wanting to participate in rotten homo card swap, send an email to [email protected]
Give me your name, address, best boys/favorite shows and how many cards you want to do.
>>149666487
A fate worse than death.
>>149665346
>Germany
Thanks for the notice, anon. Already feels like Christmas.
>>149667428
I never got the point of these. Aren't you just exchanging husbando cards? Why not do it directly through /ss/? There are plenty girls requesting their husbando in here.
>>149667396
IloveAria OST.
Can't wait anon!
>>149665346
My initials are SP and I'm from Germany. I was excited for the blink of an eye
>>149667671
Awesome.
I hope you'll like the other things I got you too.
>Santas still havent replied to my email with new info for the anon assigned to me
when can I panic
>>149665677
Is your anonJMfromMAby any chance?
>>149667722
>got reply last weekend saying santa would ask them
>still nothing
I can't tell if it's because of my /ss/ or the Santa's are backed up.
>>149667839
It's actuallyYESfromGETHYPE
>>149667597
Because I always get stuck making waifu cards and have been grinched before, probably from people who didn't know fujo shows or were malicious about fujo taste.
>>149668083
>>149668106
I always hope to get a fujo assignment. It breaks up the monotony. Too bad not everyone feels that way.
>>149668003
It's kind of unfortunate when you don't know where the problem is, and seeing comments like these make the other side worried too.
I gave an answer to someone, but I'm worried it won't, for one reason or another, reach them.
>>149666446
There it is
Coloring ain't easy
Especially if you want to be as good as grandpa
Next Time... For Sureā¢
I give up.
Fuck cut-outs.
>>149667597
It's probably the safest way to get a Yuri On Ice card without being called an annoying fujoshit.
>>149669553
Finish it. Even if it sucks.
To the Anons I got linked with -MfromCA
Getting your gift together now, good taste btw. Our favorites align almost exactly.AfromNM
&S HfromNY
Got the stuff to make your cards and working on them this weekend. Like my "Gift Anon" you guys like the same waifus I do, respect.
Just popping in to say that it doesn't matter if you can't draw, a well designed and put together card (using Photoshop, vectors, whatever) is better than some half-hearted scribbles imho.
see you guys next thread
>in the $75-$100
>only spent $76 not including shipping
That'll show that anon to have shit taste.
>>149669741
I prefer whole-hearted scribbles.
>>149668106
I feel the same. I signed up for 5 cards, all waifus and hentaifus, no guys at all. Drawing so many cute/sexy poses in Santa costumes can get kind of boring after awhile, but I sorta expected it.
>>149669741
Full-hearted anything beats half-assed anything. I've gotten crude drawing made with crayons that I cherish more than execellently photoshopped stuff that felt cold and generic.
>>149669751
Oh nice I finally got mentioned.
Santas, respond to my email right now!
>parcel attempted delivery while at work
>at post office
i know what I'm doing tomorrow!
>>149669553
Cut outs are fun, but they can be a lot more complicated to do than drawings. Gluing the pieces together is the hardest part. I spent 5 hours on a cut out yesterday and it's still not finished.Don't click if you put Mio (Nichijou) on your list.
>>149662614
>>149662347
The J i'm talking about ask to receive is gift before the 18 dec if possible
