Christmas at the North Pole. The year is 2057, and the world is changing very dramatically. On his last run in 2056, Santa encountered many obstacles which nearly ended his mission. He was repeatedly fired upon by genetically engineered attack penguins and other anti-fun assailants. Dasher was severely wounded on the return trip, and Santa himself took a small piece of schrapnel. This year however, Tandy elf, the techno genius on Santa's team, has outdone herself. Introducing the XMAS-1. It has three times the carrying capacity of the old sleigh. It can fly near the speed of light to reduce travel time. And it is armed with a battery of TOE (Tranquilize or Enervate) Mistles. These special magical warheads can either trnaqualize a potential attacker to sleep. Or inject a massive burst of holiday cheer to entire somber cities. Now Santa may complete his mission with speed and safety, and no longer needs to endanger his reindeer friends. Santa and Tandy Elf created in Poser 6. Tandy's outfit is from the Renderosity freebies area. Santa is Micheal with the M3 santa suit and fantasy beard. The Sleigh and barn we're created in Carrara 5 Pro (I wish the detail showed better but at 1024x768 you can't see the level of detail. Every door hing and screw in the barn was hand created.) All composition, lighting and terrains were done in Carrara 5 Pro. Final render in C5 Pro as well. Some postwork in PSP-X to put in icicles and slow on roof. I hope you like it.
