Hello,

Does anyone know what is the interior used for the "Make me Merry" promo image with the dog in the scene ?

Thanks in advance.

    This is an unreleased product of mine called Farrowfall Landing. It's been on my "To Do" list to finish for far too long. I really like that fireplace

    So do I, except that the back wall is rather too close to allow for a chimney. It might be something related to the camera angle, though. Lovely room.

    Partially camera angle though it is a little small. No red suited men will fit down it in its current position

    It does look like there is no chimney flue.

    Hi Hinky Punk, are the lights in the new christmas set posable or just static props?

    Static props, can only do straight lines. Its really easy when you get to an end point though. just delete the bulbs that hang off and move the "wire" over or scale down the width.

    I figured that was the case. Will still probably get them because the entirity of the pack looks useful. My original plan, though, was to have someone get tangled up in the lights for a kinda comic render.

    Funny thing, I had made about 90% of this pack complete before I looked at it and said "holy smokes, i could make christmas lights".  I was so blown away that it hadn't occured to me... unfortunately, this pack was so large by then, that every christmas light idea I had I almost immediately had to scrap because I would have never stopped adding.. and by then it was almost Thanksgiving!. I was just having so much fun with it.

    That being said, it is highly unlikely that this will be the only Christmas pack I make and definitely not the last Christmas lights, and if you need someone tangled up in lights, I'd be happy to add that.

    Until then however, I didn't make lights for the wreath, but when I was doing the promos, I took a string of lights and just manually moved the bulbs. Can always manually do it if you can find a way to string up your model

    There are lots of things one can do with straight lights! I got this today and I'm really looking forward to playing with the various props. Can't have too many gifts or wrapping paper!

    Anyway, @mambanegra, what you are looking for, to wrap your character up in the lights, is available in the Strings product. Just be aware that in order to get that flexibility there are a lot of bones and that can be a pain to pose. Try selecting several at a time and adjusting parameters to All selected at the same time. It helps. The product does not come with poses.

    Or you could just wait for the Lights Extravaganza, (my name for it, not HP's,) and use those! I know I'm looking forward to it, whatever it's called.

    (And as Christmas cards need to be ready to hand out by the end of November, I hope HP doesn't wait until next December to release them!)

    Personally I wouldn't recomend the Strings product at all, there are other products out there that use easy pose.

    this isn't iray but can be converted

    I also have some by Noggin, again older poser items but easy pose and easy to convert to iray, but I'm not sure where they come from possibly a freebie from somewhere.
