Christmas Special: Anim8or Christmas Tree!

Christmas Special: Anim8or Christmas Tree!
Ornaments

That's right, Christmas time is coming up for many of us, and we moderators thought it would be a wonderful to get the community together to make an Anim8or Christmas Tree!  We'll provide the tree in the end, so what we need from you all are decorations, meaning ornaments!


So here's the deal.  We want everyone to participate by making their own ornament.  Get creative as you want, or stay as classic as you want.  Feel free to post renders here, but most importantly, be sure to attach the Anim8or file.  With this we can put all the different ornaments on the tree, and have a beautiful final render, which we can send to Steve as a Christmas Card "thank you!"

So bring your holiday cheer, and lets deck out our tree with all kinds of art!

Deadline: December 20th

I don't know what that has to do with the topic kreator.. maybe something for its own topic or something?



I made a typical christmas ball thingy, you can easily change the color , hiho, so it can be used a few times maybe

Are there any limits on ART usage? could slow the render down a lot if there's too much.

There are no limitations no, but if something is too intensive on the system we will simply change it.  If we can render it with ART, then all the better.  If not, then we wont!  Don't worry too much about how it will be put together, for now we need some beautiful ornaments :D

And great ornament there Simon!  Good way to start it off.  I'll see if I can get something simple up soon as well.

Great stuff by everyone!  Keep the ornaments coming, they're all looking fantastic.
Don't worry too much about the render time.  I'm sure it'll be high either way!  We're going to give it a few days to render, so the contest will most likely stop the 20th of December (10 more days!)

One problem with the cats, the image isn't saved with the file atm so you might wanna zip 'zem together.
