Cool render, where is the pic, in the framed photo, from? If you made it, you should add a SBS for it , if not, you should post the source.

thanks greymval i improved it .....

i wish after posting the source links and giving the credits to the site my entry don't get removed....

Nice Job! Only thing IMO is that the white dots? Are they meant to be the white particles snow like things in a snow globe? because IMO they don't really blend into your image author.. I'm not sure... maybe take them out or make ALLOT more of them and ALLOT smaller Hope this helps! Great Image! Good luck!

I also spotted one more thing on the green tree the top is nor smooth and has small quads visible.. Sorry to be picky just add a smooth modifier and it will fix the very small problem best of luck

Thanks for your input toothpick, a few things you think are "wrong" however were done on purpose, haha. For instance, when I made the tree, a simple spline with loft nurbs applied, I noticed that the top was a little off, I could have changed the spline, added more rotations or put hyper nurbs (smooth mesh) onto it but I think it makes it look more 'plastic' and toyish, like its been moulded that way. And yeah the white dots are meant to be the 'snow' particles from the globe, some of which are still floating a little, this is to make it look as though they are flying from the smash.

Fair enough author You're the BOSS haha Good Luck !

The snow man shows no shadow on his body, although he shows a shadow on the floor. That makes him look very flat and artificial.
Likewise, the two "snowy lumps" are casting no shadows on the floor.

Otherwise, this is very nicely done!

Snowman looks to be lit from within. If that were the case, it wouldn't cast a shadow.

The snowman simply has a very white texture. it does need work but with the time it takes and being home over the holidays I cannot get around to it for now so it'll have to do.

oh no! broken snow globe!

how cute! the little pxl guys! great imagination author

The background of the snowglobe is pitch black...Even distorted, some of all the ambient lighting from the tree lights should be visible.

That said, this is a very well done image.

Perhaps maybe through the screen of a CRT monitor you dug out of a dumpster, but through a LCD 22" widescreen, I see the background of the globe very well. You even turned it upside down like it should be.

Holy crap! I just saw your SBS! YOU MADE THAT globe in a 3D render??? I'm impressed! GL!

Um.. duh... 3d contest

very nice entry...good luck author

Nice take on the theme!

very cool different concept...gl author

Nice work in Zbrush, but i don't like the position of the final render.
I think it would be awesome to see it from behind the globe, like the Santa is a bit blurred and we can see grinch's eye through the glass or something similar. It must be epic!
Maybe you can find a pic for the BG as well.

i think this entry should have been further up on the list
