Very nice render. And SBS is detailed except the most important thing, what program did you used ? So, we are at least two who read it.

Wow, one of the greatest 3D entry seen on this site. Lights and textures are perfect. I considere those contests as a workshop, hope you dont mind if i made few remarks.Making the two jars from boxes and not as usual ( spline > lathe>outline) create problems. Cant see the bottom of jars, look like are raising from the table. This is visible especially to the olives in front jar which are not distributed on all jar bottom. Same problem to the bottle on the right where liquid dont match edges of the bottle. Once again congrats, is a joy to see such entries on 3D contests.

Author, if you find the answer to this question, please let me know. It will be a great happiness for me to know that I have direct acces to God via PXL site

Edit : IMO look much, much better now after all the improvements. And I appriciate author's effort who was forced to play so many hours with the balls of a dog.

Dog leg is too close from that hydrant, he will be hurt You should study in detail how far is the leg of a dog from the object work when he piss. Cannot be more constructive than that. Good luck, excellent idea.

wow, thats why i loose vote power. i voted very high here cause idea is excellent. but is not on PXL taste. I want to make something similar in 3D, once again congrats for your good idea.

Sorry, just dont get the idea. Its a magnificent parade of virtuosity. A lot of work, skills and talent for what ? To make a duplicate of a snake photo ?Your effort remind me a great short story ”Pierre Mesnard, author of Don Quijote ” by Jorge Luis Borges. If you have time, read it, you will love it. Good luck.

Idea is really great, shape of the snake match perfect with noodles shapes. I'm not a good photoshopper to give advices but a little more shadows of snake on the noodles ?And of course the blur suggeted by jawshoewhaw. its a good work and can be improved, good luck.

I see...you found the original pictures made by Noah..next time you can use Photoshop to fix it ..excellent, i love idea and work, GL

Quote from Missy : ”Damn good”. I read twice your excellent SBS and I still cant believe to my eyes that you've made this beautiful car with the primitives modelling tools of Bryce. I'll never try that, it's like to work only with my left hand. Incredible good, congrats.

A lot of high quality work. Excellent entry. Congratulations.

My fav on this contest. Good idea, humour, blend, color... I love it..hope will be where it deserve...on 1st

I saw your little problem, if you dont mind..1. you have Optimize modifier, this can reduce 20-30 % poly whitout visibile quality loose 2. according SBS you made„few planes”. why ?can make a single plane, convert to Edit Poly or Mesh, apply displacement map and then,for adjusment, select one or more poly (see also Soft selection) and move on Yaxis with Move tool. This will take few minutes more than displacement but will reduce dramatically poly number and render time. And you will have a full control of how your planet will look.

i love when behind manipulation is a story, an idea, like here. good, congrats.

This time is the normal result. Dont try on a third contest, LOL, congrats.

Mr M should be much, much bigger, like a real leader. Very funny, good luck.

This was one of my fav on PST. Continue to think that is the result of a great inspiration moment. One of the best seen of this site. Chapeau bas.

Your work is too good to not try to improve. Just few details. Fish texture is excellent, try to rotate/move one fish, simmetry is perfect now, nothing is perfect in real life.This is valid also for other objects in your work. The yellow egg is not very yellow, look more green to me. Onion - or what is green in the plates- looks very good. When you have time teach me how to do that, I love it. Green liquid in the high glass looks too metalic. If the glass is made with splines - taper, best results are if you make a double line and the liquid is exactly between the two lines. Welcome, enjoy.

Good. Blender is a difficult program and this is a fine beginning. Take it easy with reflections and things will improve for sure.

Fabulous ! Since a half of hour i switch between SBS and HR to understand what exact you did. Simple and magic.

Wow, i dont remember that. I believe you was never a beginner.

My preferred on this contest. I love your bird, is very funny. When I see such entries I regret dont know PS. Good luck.

I really dont know if i have to envy or to deplore you for those magic ideas. For us is fantastic to have every week such miracles on this site, but for you...dont know..must be tough..or agreeable..still thinking..Fille's quote.

Well, author, if i anticipate what good entries you can do with V-ray...dont know about the help..maybe next time i shall gave you wrong links..

I love your robot, is classic and same time very original, very ingenious. As a simple suggestion you can switch off shadows from one of the omni, now you have two shadows on the floor.

Amazing work, super, good luck

Nice work but where is the source link ?

As Pixelkid say it. People should use what program feel necessary to have a good final entry. And combination between PS and Bryce is a good example.Good luck.

Good render and good humour. There are embarassing moments when I dream at this room, LOL. Two minors observations. Toilett paper still look rigid, maybe a relax or wave modifier could make it more atractive. And the toilet itself look a little higher as normal. As usual, few good geometric models, like the sink, can be seen only in SBS. I know, is frustrating to work on details which can not be seen in final render. Impressed by mr sky portal, is this a new feature of max 10 ? Good luck, good work.

Două maidaneze, un colţ de zid, un colţ de poartă forjată... am simţit imediat Bucureştii..nu ştiu cum ai făcut asta dar m-a emoţionat. Felicitări.

Double click ? !

OK, where can I subscribe for this mag ?

Its my childhood dream.. thanks author !

As usual great, good, best in this contest IMO, bla-bla... Lets get to work
1. I love the old aspect of the helmet. Is easy to make a new, perfect object in 3D but is difficult to make it look old. Maybe some redish color for a rusty look.
2. This was a just a detail. Sorry to tell that ( I tell you cause I appriciate your work ), the sand and water are disasters. So monotonous, so uniform. I know, is hard to work a 3D underwater landscape in 2 weeks but better you used a photoshop background than that. Good luck and congrats.

Yesss !! Billy the Dog want one of that !

Look excellent. To make such a beautiful pic with a thin program like Google..you have all my respect.

This is not on theme, is three time on theme. Good job, author, GL.

Helmet modelling is super OK, fences look good, the far helmet is fine, something wrong with the mauve light. The helmet shadow on the car is from a light on the left, suppose is the key light with shadows on. But it seems the colour light is on right without shadow. For the rest high marks for me, a good mise en scene.

Hi, man ! Better later than never. Your landscape is really beautiful. I like very much when i see people with open minds which realize how good is for their work to learn more graphic programs. It was a tough fight here between the old photosoppers and the intrusion of new softwares. But when I see pictures like your landscape made with Bryce and Photoshop I'm very content. Now I know our fight was for a good cause. keep your good work, congratulations.

Beautiful ! With more lights and shadows on background remember me Rembrandt

if you say what program used and what settings have for render maybe somebody can help you. maybe.

HavingFun advices are excellent.Myself learn a lot from what he said. I dont think all advices are good for this particular entry. For me is obvious that author humanize the cat. Is not realistic but is very expressive. Even if is anatomycal wrong.

Usually i have a comment on the picture i think is the best in a contest. Usually this picture dont win. Sorry, this is the best picture in this contest.

Yes, I was waiting for that, excellent humor. Thanks to Cornelia, I knew is something new but dont remember exact the face.

You should make a Gallup pool, who like and who dont like sepia . I vote for sepia, good luck.

Great, excellent, bla-bla, you know,.. I have a lot of question, please. What z brush did you use for the hair ? How did you export the paint texture from Zbrush ? Eyes are made in Zbrush, you used a subtool ? When i use subtool I see no more the tool in viewport, why ? thats all for the moment, congrats, good luck, bla-bla, you know...

Oh no, sorry, with the new angle you lost 90% from the beauty of this sword.The bump map from the blade which look like an unfinished metal in previous version look now like a stone. And the fangs look made from plastic now. Just an opinion.

Much, much better with the new background. Maybe the bricks are too glossy for an old stone castel ?

Fine colors, fine idea, there is something wrong with the hilt, look at the shadow, the guard dont match the hilt. GL.

I like the way you played with the gray materials, shapes are very clean, render is OK.. but you can kill me with your sword...dont understand your concept .. looks more like a tin opener..just my humble opinion.. good luck.
