These showed up at our door today

We were just about to head out for lunch today and when we couldn’t get the door open. Looking through the small side glass panel on the side we saw this present at our studio front door! We were so excited, Jonathan repelled down the building with dental floss, Wes took a nap on the couch, Tim started drawing on the walls and Alessandro.. well Alessandro is in Rome, so we sent him a Skype Message about it. All while Jonathan was running back up the stairs to help get the door open.. With the door open we heard a grumble and.. (Ah, okay that was all fabricated and most likely not true. ) :)

But in all seriousness, this is something we like to do each year around the holidays on the Blender Cookie. A way to say thank you for another rocking year and the support you guys have given us. It has been quite the ride this past year and our way to give a little more back.

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. Until then no sneaking a peak, shaking the present, or feeling how heavy it is. You may only look at it. (It is a digital thing) :)

    lol, that’s some nice Nathan-Drake-action there, Jonathan!
    Hey wait a second, what did David do in the meantime? …wait…maybe he’s behind it all! ;)

    anyway, big thanks for another great year everyone! I haven’t followed many of your tutorials in recent months, to be honest, but you’re still my #1 Go-To site for Blender info :D BlenderCookie FTW!
