My Christmas model for 2022

Every year, I make an original nativity scene for Christmas. The collection has over 40 models…
This year, the theme is a Christmas tree. It is made of 5-pointed hollow stars, getting smaller from bottom to top, linked by ribs. Each star is rotated 36 degrees to the lower and upper ones. As a result, the ribs take a zigzag shape that very much matches the traditional representation of a Christmas tree. The coloring suggests snow and is made of triangles, just like the characters. As usual, I add lighting and you can see the effect on the last picture.
This model is surely not the easiest to assemble but I don’t regret the time spent.
Merry Christmas everyone!
