I actually had a very light hobby Christmas.

I got a set of drybrushes, a brush and a texture stamp

I did buy myself some Skaven and the Forgotten Ruin rules from Modiphius, so I guess those count

However, there was a lot of chocolate :D

I have a copy of Midgard and a couple of Sarissa buildings coming that were supposed to be gifts, but they’re still held up in the post.   :(   It’s been a great Christmas despite that, though.

I didn’t get anything hobby related!

My spouse did get me a Gibson Les Paul Standard, in cherry burst, though - so I have NOTHING to complain about!  lol

Great mix of stuff here:

Frontier Wargaming paint handle set
The Silver Bayonet rulebook and the Riflemen box set to get me going
Goblin Wolf Riders and Skeleton Chariots to add to my fantasy armies for my Dernland campaign
A set of Gallows and some scatter for my Traitor’s Toll town
And some odds and sods like a really fun set of skeleton characters that I have no idea what I’ll do with but they look great.

4 volumes of Refighting History by Charles Grant to fill some gaps in my collection and a load of Isabelinos for my First Carlist War project, all Perry figures which are quite superb. Good haul and very happy with my lot. :)
