The second of my 2007 Gloomy Christmas images. Also a good example of idea being let down by execution. The theory is decent enough. A modern day Jesus is born on the streets to immigrant parents; the 'wise men' are two cops and a social worker who promptly whisk him into care. But the figures are all as stiff as hell, particularly the two men. The social worker's feet are also sinking into the ground; a common problem with high heels, which are almost as hard to model as they are to wear. (Although, I hastily add, I've never actually tried the latter.) Only baby Jesus comes out well, happily oblivious to the faults all around him.
