The balloon approached and left in silence, dropping its special delivery...
Santa heard nothing as he looked for sweets....
Imagine his surprise when he stepped outside...
For me?????

Cute...Merry Christmas.
That has to be a FedEx-mas balloon then. :)
@ Lady of the Lake: Merry Christmas back at you! :)
@ N-drju When I added that balloon, I later thought...umm, hot air balloon vs North Pole...well I believe in the magic of Christmas, so .... :) :)
I am working with curves and tried some candy canes, I will probably use the vary color clip as my mapping failed on red stripes through camera. I set size at 1, maybe go 25 or .025?
Roof candy has translucency and lower opacity, front chocolate, reflective shader
3 hr render at 0.5 micro detail and AA 6
I tried bobbystahr's trick with the balloon, using 2-- mapping one and cutting opacity with the other. I think I picked the one image up here, possibly yossam or DocCharley, thanks to you if that is true.
Santa cannot seem to stay away from this place :)
Meanwhile back at the barn....
Fun with lights! Oh yes, extruded text as barn deco sleigh and reindeer.
