Great modeling and great render! IMO angle of the cam (or perspective) is a little bit forced for a Xmas theme. Good luck!

looks pretty realistic, maybe instead of such an extreme angle, you could just take a straight on shot and offset the tree a bit. Just a suggestion. Great 3D modeling! Do you use blender?

Super cool render with excelent lighting 5* GL

im missing the tinsel but good job

cool' while you are at it can u saturate the leaf color and add a little more reflection to the ornaments

Congratulations!

congrats,a very well deserved win

Congratulations, beautiful Christmas tree

I really liked the frosted look on the ornaments well earned

awww no gifts for me o.o; *cries* lol j/k great entry just think it be nicer on a less shiny floor, maybe a nice thick carpet or a wooden floor. but nice work nonetheless

Eledine - There is a gift for you! Look, the one at the bottom left. I would never forget you!

p.s. I like your idea of the wooden floor (think it will tie in nicely with the gold). I'll update and reload. Thanks!

Tried it with a wooden floor but it looses something. I think i'm going to stick with the dark contrast and the shiny floor.

- Daddy, what will have under the christmas tree this year?

- Wooden floor, son!

Yay I have a present -

Personally I think the floor is a little too reflective and seems to take away from the tree etc.

nice work............

I'm flattered. I think I have the largest gift!

i wonder whats in my box , good work author and gl

Hi Mircea, the tree and tinsel "fur" was created with C4D's Hair Plugin and some custom hair shader/modifiers I made to get the effect I wanted. No Maya used. Rendering also all done in C4D.

Sorry havent look back untill now and thnx for the present a wonderfull and thoughtfull gift it was! You know me so well LMAO :P too bad the wooden floor didnt work out. but you should stick with what you like best and well you tried right? excellent work still and lmao at sigi :P

you should have put a lump of coal under there for someone as a joke, lol. Great job author!

Congratulations on 3rd and happy new year

warm and fuzzy, love the light set up, style of modeling reminds me of Gumby ( claymation cartoon of the past). good luck

Looks warm and cosy!! Well done and GL

its simply pleasant and great looking

Thanks for the advice Mircea, i'll take it into considering on later models. Also I will look up that program.
