And merry x-mass to you too! =P
The render definitely has that Christmas feeling to it, very warm.
I especially like the tree, the snow covering it is very well done, and the decorations look very cool.

brilliant work man, I remember those christmas cartoons when I look at your image, it gives a very cozy holiday feeling …
cheers
Great work! I’ve to agree about the lighting of the house. I think you miss too much detail now (dark). But I know, nightscenes are a nightmare to lit, so I think you did a good job on the overall scene. And the tree rules!

Moved to the gallery.

It’s got a few jaggies and glitches here and there, but … who cares? A nice picture, very Christmas-y. Got all the expected things in it, and done very well.
Very nice work. I enjoyed your gallery too, especially the “Terminator” image.
Best wishes…

this is great…stereotypical yet very pleasing…
wait, it’s snowing up?!?
EDIT - and the christmas tree is a picture…or atleast it looks like it is from the wireframe…
very nice, no faults!
nice gallery also!
good show!
5 stars!
Thomas Kincaid, eat your heart out. 5 stars.

I was going to leave it at “Wow!” because that says everything I needed to say but you can’t just post “Wow!” so I added this explanation of why I added this explanation.
Wow!
Wow!!!

Nicely done !! postcard quality…and MERRY CHRISTMAS to Everyone !!!
Wow, very professional work. I would criticize it…but its just so perfect :D. Great work, plus low render time? Very very nice image!

really great image - why do i always quit after making just the snowman.
This looks great! I was going to do something similar as well (though I lack the skills and speed…probably be out by next christmas 
).
Anyway, how did you the snow on the roof of the building and on the ground?
Also, how do you make the trees soooo realistic?
This really is a great piece of art (setting it as my wallpaper for the christmas season 
)
Thank you very much and merry christmas to everyone!!

Jaycun -
first sorry for my english:)
how I made it? I was show it on first site this post,
This is very simple (primitive ) scene. Importand for me is effect not methode :)
- snow on the roof is just subdivided multi fractal box
- snow on the groud is plain subdivided too.
- the trees are two plains with texture
- only hause and snowman is fully modeled
cheers
…and screen from WIP
Oh…now I see the planes in your trees…
Thank you very much gucias! I was interested in the method because I like the effect/mood. I love the scene…thanks for sharing the tips.
I wish I had known this last year…could have really helped out in an art competition.
Ok.
