Description
Here we have a group of anonymous, nameless people getting together to celebrate Faemike's birthday. (They really need to take those Christmas decorations down.) Happy birthday, Mike! Now get off the computer and go PAR-TAY!!
This was my entry in the Perfect Holiday contest. I was reluctant to enter it but when I saw a few "signature characters" I thought it would be okay. Well, I didn't win anything, but I think I learned a few things: 1. If I ever expect to win a prize, I need to get Vue. (I could predict the winner as soon as it was entered!) And, 2. If I were smart, I would aim for the Honorable Mention in Animation, the category with the best prize value to entrants ratio.
I also entered something in the writing contest. There were three prizes and only five entries. Since I didn't win anything, this means that I came in last or second to last in this category. This really doesn't help my self-confidence as a storyteller... But, then again, I really rushed on that entry, so it's my fault. And, the other entries were really good.
I give a big salute to all the contest winners! It was another great year. Let's all do our best next year, and also for the Halloween one!
And of course, many happy returns to the birthday boy!!

Christmas or birthday party, this is a heart-warming beautiful image with many of your characters assembled for some fun. I wonder how your computer is able to render so many figures in one image (mine hangs with two V4s!). Yes, Faemike55 should have a real happy birthday party away from the computer for a change. Thanks for the post. I really appreciate it - nice atmosphere and each person has his/her character (you're a master at this showing character business!). :-)

This has great atmosphere and fun.

In response to T.Rex, my computer could not nearly handle this many figures in one scene. This is a combination of five renderings stitched together: the two in the upper left, the two in the upper right, the two in the center, the two in front plus the cat, and the tree all by itself. The tree took the longest to render!!

Excellent scene and work! ;o)

Yeah, you need at least Carrara to win a flowerpot in those contests. Guess the point is that those two contests should have been combined to give you a chance for a price: Your images are always story-telling. :-)
