Topics and Rules for Christmas and Christmas in July miniature exchanges are discussed in this room.

[15th] Ye Olde Inn Christmas Exchange 2026

Postby lestodante » Yesterday, 9:28 am

Hello to everyone!
Let's get this started for 2026 too!
The rules are the same as previous years.

Procedure:
1. People sign up here and someone collects everyone's names/addresses up via pm until November 2026 (we're a bit late this year).
2. Someone makes a draw so each participant has someone to send to and someone (other) to receive from. Ideally a non-participant will make the draw but not necessary.
3. People paint something for their recipient, and send it by the end of November.
4. People receive their gifts in December and post pictures of them after 90% have received theirs.

Rules:
1. Participants have to PAINT a HeroQuest type figure Warhammer Old World or fantasy type mini.
2. Participants are NOT to reveal their recipient or their sender, until everyone has received their figure. Do not ruin the spirit (it has been done before).
3. Participants are expected to commit to this. If they can't do it for certain, then they shouldn't sign up.

Guidelines:
1. Regarding rule 1: Painting is mandatory. Conversions are very welcome but the finished result should be painted.
2. Don't feel like you have to paint something exquisite and that if you are not that good of a painter then you shouldn't join in. It's a fun thing and the level of the painted figures is irrelevant. Just give it your best shot. It's always been that way, you can read the comments of the previous exchanges.
3. If you finish your figure way earlier than the deadline, go ahead and send it. Please send your mini by the end of November. In any case, please DO NOT post any photo of a received figure before a majority of others have received.
4. It's customary to write your name under the base of the figure you're sending.
5. Generally people won't be able to receive from a person they already received a gift in a previous exchange.

I would make a post but I think that would imply that I am managing it which I cannot do this year. My daughter just started travel softball so my time for a calm fall/winter has now come to an end :P
Anyone down to manage? Looks like we got some interest.


2026 topic started!! :D
Please hurry up to join; can we try to reach at least 10 partecipants...?
