Description
Do you know NORAD Tracks Santa (http://www.noradsanta.org)? This organization tracks Santa Claus and has done it since 1955. Meshbox is a corporate contributor to this project.
This year, I made the official desktop wallpaper for it. This is a preview image of the "HD" sized version found on NORAD's SkyDrive - https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=881F4E589F6AC859
The character is Meshbox Design's Toon Santa Classic. Using Poser 10 and PoserFusion, imported this into Shade 3D ver 14 Professional, where I did some retexturing, set up the scene and sky (easily done with Shade's real sky tool), and then rendered. Shade's PoserFusion implementation is really nice because you have a lot of access to sub-objects, plus if you want to create props, you can export OBJ groupings fairly easily.
I let it render, then slipped it into a frame we came up with. The logo is the official logo of NORAD Tracks Santa, used by permission.
You are free to download the large version. Please take the time to visit NORAD Tracks Santa, esp on Christmas Eve when the satellite tracking system goes live. You can also download games for iOS, Windows Phone and Android, and various other portable trackers.
Merry Christmas Everyone! Keep Love in Your Heart :-)
