===== The plane and St Paul's are nicely modelled, but the "squareness" of the bird lets the image down, IMO. Leaving out the bird altogether would improve the scene [djs]. I've marked down on the technical merit due to use of old models you had lying around, which is discouraged (banned?) by the rules. ===== Love the dome. Like the plane. Could have done without the birds. :-) Good detail and fair texturing. ===== Nice picture but you said that you used the dome of St. Pauls from another project you were doing. All the objects in your scene were supposed to be created specifically for this competition. It is a beautiful picture though. (The seagulls need some work too.) ===== Very well crafted plane. ===== Extremely well done - only thing I found a bit distracting was the beak on the closest seagull, something about it is a bit odd. Decided to not count this, and gave you a triple-twenty anyway. ===== The plane & dome are photorealistic -- the birds aren't. That dropped the Artistic Merit of the picture slightly. Overall, however, a very good picture with just the right amount of detail. ===== The birds helped this rendering of an aircraft be unique. Wonderful touch. And the plane--NNnnnniiiiice. ===== I'm not crazy about it, but the dome and plane look very good. ===== Like it. Love it. ===== Great modelling, except for the birds... they're not bad, just a little too static. ===== Great attention to deatil but what's in the bird's mouth? ===== The lighting scheme escapes my understanding. The undercarriage of the plane near the tail seems well lit and yet it is the top of the foreground bird's head that is lit. maybe I'm too tired and have looked at too many entries. ===== The dome of St.paul's is very impressive and raises the overall appeal. The plane aswell is nicely done, but overall lacks flare. ===== looks a little flat, but the sea gull is a nice touch ===== Is London weather always like that? Beautiful triplane but the near bird ruins what would otherwise have been a perfect composition. The lack of detail in the freightened avian in contrast to the other elements (excellent cathedral) spoilt it for me. Either keep the birds away from the camera or defocus them. A detailed close-up bird would have distracted from the Arvo being the central object of the image. ===== I love the Dome!!! ===== Beautiful model. Minor point, the foreground seagull model could have done with being better build. ===== Very detailed and good-looking image, but you should have skipped the closest bird. ===== The final bird, heading towards the camera, was a nice touch - and modelled nicely, too! ===== beautiful and good interpretation of the theme ===== Now this is a raytraced piece of artwork. Looks really good! ===== Nice modelling job. Good attention to detail. I also like the sky texture. ===== Well portrayed image, thought the gull in the foreground distracts from the design of the airplane. Nice architecture of the craft. ===== Artistically I liked the avro plane but the sea gull close to the camera lacked enough detail to carry it off something else different or another building top might have worked better overall good quality ===== Great visual effects ===== You could have done without the close up bird. ===== Look out, little birdie!!! :) ===== Clean, clear image with interesting interpretation (Jonathan Livingston Seagull in attendance???) ===== Good concept--nice juxtaposition of the natural and the artificial. The plane and the dome are extraordinarily good. The birds are a bit stiff and boxy, but nicely posed. ===== A superb plane!
