This should clear up the misconception that A.I. dreams of electronic sheep. I love all those designs and the presentation is amazing too.

So this is the snowman lantern I’ve made shortly after the “Paper Snowman Family”:
I’ve then had an idea to make a more traditional one, with nice cutouts etc and this is the result:
Happy Snowman LampHere's a joyful snowman, ready to illuminate your room in those long winter nights! This is more traditional take compared to my previous snowmen, but is so cute with a traditional “face” and snowflake-shaped cutouts that allow more...
However had to do a bit of photo trickery to get the cover image right. Photographing lamps is hard…

Late inspiration, a bit of “I have no idea how to do that part”, couple almost failed test prints, challenging weather conditions… But I’ve managed to finish on time to join the Trip to North Pole contest! It’s not a decoration – it’s an useful travel item! (that can then be converted into a decoration)
Santa Wine Bottle Cover / Gift BoxThis year, I went to the North Pole to help Santa out, I've got a special task - to come up with something to help with gifts for “bigger kids” ;) Since Santa has to travel far and fast, I knew that the more fragile...

Thanks! That was the idea
Maybe a bit, however…
Now that’s a lie dear sir! As a life-long coder, my “sense of style” is nothing more than lerned behaviour of “is it clean/whole/not-stupid” and adapting algorithms around that
I don’t, but if it would help, I could recite some Vogon poetry

It’s the future with cute attitude! Introducing: Universal Snowman
! Wife said I’m not allowed to call the snowman that (because not everybody would get reference to 90’s B-grade action flick) so… Introducing: Cute Snowman All-in-One
The snowman itself started as an idea for a vase, then I thought: “well, the Santa can be a vase, so what if the snowman could be something more?” and it kinda snowballed into what it is now Even the lamp part was late addition because I’ve noticed that the hat is just the right size for led kit and “darn, I need to add that now”
So - what do you guys think? I bet AI couldn’t dream of it!

Literally my biggest project so far: almost 40cm tall when assembled! 650 grams of filament! More than 4 colours! Oh my… And I did try to spare as much filament switching as possible…
Stackable Christmas Cookie Tins:
On top of making the thing, my 2 main issues were: how to call it and how to make best photos of it? Any tips?

Nice photos! I always find lamps hard to photograph.

Yeah, lamps are tricky. My wife’s tip for photographing lamps is to make sure that surrounding lighting is there, but not overpowering the lamp itself. If you photograph in the dark - you get dark scene + bright lamp. If you photograph in bright environment, the lamp is just a bit brighter sculpture. Getting a proper balance is hard - it’s part art and part science
