Wife asked for this one as a Christmas gift. I got it mid November. I wanted to give it to her early, so it can be out as a decoration this year. It’s 11 figures (including ox) which is roughly how many I paint a month. i also want to get lots of points from RCL. the plan is to finish the basic nativity set, and give that early, then rest of the box set under the tree, and finally a display base in January I added the Ox from wizkids, it’s mentioned in many versions - I may add more sheep for final display. Need more work on Mary s back RCL - pc (Joseph) holiday (Jesus) monster (donkey) December pc (wise man), backstory (sheep?) diorama (without base) 2022 pageorama (decorative base + sheep?)

part one was opened in mid December, part 2 on Christmas morning. I’ll build into a full diorama in January Which I will then hide until next year

I actually finished this some time ago, but frankly wanted to get it over to Ma and Pa Strawhat's ASAP as we knew that Ma wouldn't be around too much longer. As such, I didn't have the option to get pictures (as soon as I finished sealing it, I went to bed, then boxed it up the next evening as soon as I got home from work and ran it out there). I grabbed Ma's phone one afternoon while I was over there waiting for hospice to arrive and took a few pictures. I had hoped that Ma would post them so I could grab them, but she didn't. The pictures are a little dark (I'm not real good at using other phones), but I think the idea comes across.

This one was started back in Nov, but obviously got back logged. I got through most of them and just lost steam. Here's how most of it came out. Still finishing the manger and one wise man. The three in most pleased with are baby Jesus, herding boy, and the donkey.

Christmas gift for my Mother. The size difference threw me for a loop the whole way through but I got it done just in time. I let yaw know what she says tonight or tomorrow.

My final figure for 2016, Gabrielle by Bombshell. I slightly altered the position of her arm, and changed her stance by basing her on a step, so it looks more like she is running, rather than lunging. Really proud of her face, I used a magnifying glass in addition to my usual painting glasses, so I could get the detail.

One of the last pieces I painted for 2016, a sarayad, or noble dryad from DGS Games. She is going to really surprise some PCs one day.
