Citroën Mehari & Christmas Scene - By Albert Prats



Honorable Mention - Holiday Scene

This scene from Spanish modeler Albert Prats is of the typical Christmas markets that many times are placed near the Cathedral or close to an important church of a town or city. In the scene he has done, Santa Claus has bought a Christmas tree and has picked it up in a Citroën Mehari. Meanwhile, a grandfather is buying a balloon for his grandson and some other children are already enjoying them.

The Citroën Mehari is an unpaited resin kit by "L´Obsidienne" that Albert painted and built. The orange was the most characteristical colour of this car. The Cathedral has an internal LED system (originally one of those party gadgets you can find on Ebay) that works better than a normal bulb lamp to enjoy the coloured windows.
