Rudolph dropped this off…

by Wes Burke

No he didn’t actually, we made that title up… We spent a couple hours on it and felt it was the best we could come up as we were both creatively fried! ;)

Jonathan and I would like to give a present back to the daily visitors of Blender Cookie and Cg Cookie, so we have put a present out under our site. You can only look at it, but you can’t shake it, or feel how heavy it is.

But you can mark it on your calendar to come back here and open it up on December 25th. A bit after midnight (-6GMT) we will open up the download for the present for you to open and see what is inside, and then you can post back here to the world what we got you for the holiday.

Thank you for a great year from CG Cookie and a great start to Blender Cookie. Hope the rest of the month treats you well and don’t forget to hug your neighbor and keep your Blender groove on!

Cheers!

    Ooh, I’m excited now to see what’s in it. I guess that means I also have to get you a present too. I’m working on a really cool project right now that maybe if it’s good enough I can submit to contribute.

    I guess that would be by some American timezone? I’ll have to check up on how far behind that is.
    The real question is whether this is one surprise for all or a random surprise that is unique for each download. ;-)

    (guess I just put the pressure on to see if you can figure out how many different gifts you can come up with)

    Just found Your site a few months back. Love your tutorials.
    I ‘m a patient man and will just wait till the 26th. Why drive
    myself crazy wondering about the present. Unless is something
    cool like maybe the complete and total understanding of CG. or maybe……

    Thanks for all of the guesses thus far, and all of those for not peaking yet. Caught Markus the other day sniffin his monitor, but he hasn’t figured it out yet.

    btw – Prep and Landing was pretty awesome :)

    Wow, thanks for the present! The video is a cool watch.

    (The first time I downloaded it, it only came out to 4xx MB, so I had to re-download it again, and it worked out fine.)
