Should have time, so placeholder… Then again, that’s what I said last time…
Very Suitable topic. I’m in!
Since I have nothing better to do this weekend… Count me in…
edit: pure blender…
“The Star Of Christmas”
Updated… I didnt like the original eyes… so I re-modeled them 
I guess #176 will be my first challenge entry…
EDIT:
I decided to take a different direction with the ornament. I have changed the entry from a dark shot to a bright and more realisitic composition.
Open: I had to use Photoshop to modify the image as well as place some of the needles on top of the ornament and add some shadows on the Santa for realism.
I guess I should give this piece a title. Lets see, since it is Christmas and we put ornaments on trees every year… Ha, got it!
