The Simplify3D Facebook page says a very cool spinning Christmas ornament is available from Don Foley's site for a couple days - free to Simplify3D users. This little beauty will impress my relatives much more than the little stars and trees I was planning to print.

Guess I missed it because I didn't see it for free. Some neat work there for sure.

It's still there, and still free for the rest of this week.

Go to the very bottom of the page. This is the Astrolabe Ornament, not the Armillary Sphere.

JimC, if that beautiful ornament is your example of a "quick finish", I can't imagine what it would be like to have an extended finishing process.
Thanks for sharing your great work!

Jim, Great job. I love seeing what people do with my designs. I like your finish much better than mine.

Here's a attempted print, in pink PLA, painted. This is my first attempt at priming and painting a print. Think it came out ok.
