I like the presents under the tree and I really like how you added the Santa hat on top of Derpy. It's a shame there's no way to make the hat bigger, but it looks like it's pretty well situated to her head.

That said it feels a bit plain. The angle on the camera does make it look like there's a lot of empty space, and this would be fine if the map and the walls didn't looks so plain. Do not be afraid to add stuff to the walls or on the floor, either more presents or candy canes to the walls. Also stockings if possible. Do not be afraid of making the map to cluttered, you can always remove things with the Remover tool if needed.

Better lighting could help as well, like lights above or in the background can help with the atmosphere. Using the post processing tab or doing some editing in photoshop/gimp may help as well.

Overall you have a good concept I just think you need to add more to it. Do not be afraid to take some risks and you'll come up with something great

Did you get ungrabbable duplicates of the presents?

i found one of the presents had a grabable duplicate underneath it so i used that as the present derpy is holding. i think the original i grabbed that from dissapeared it was sitting almost directly infront of the tree trunk from this angle.
