===== From chipr@niestu.com: Excellent authentic modeling and texturing. Scale and proportions are very good throughout. The fence is especially good, although it is an odd color for typical chain-link. Nice grass. The concept is a sad, wry comment on schools today. Very high quality image. ===== From mmandl@aol.com: Nice shadows ===== From mwhite@redshift.com: All I can say is it may not be super original, but it is truly beautifully done! ===== From mbrown@spry.com: I can't wait to see your images when yout exture skills improve. I have a feeling you will be a master. your modeling it excelent. ===== From jsaxton@folio.com: I love the fence too. ===== From bbowen@cswnet.com: Well, you may not have impressed yourself with your texturing abilities but your modelling abilities are superb. BTW, I can see enough of the chain link fence to suspect it isn't a just a texture. Nice job. ^"^ ===== From xeo@sprynet.com: Good job! Unique view of schools today... ===== From ucoakc00@mcl.ucsb.edu: Humorous and sad insight. I like the image. The metal detector looks a bit odd, but the overall image is nice. ===== From amarok@geocities.com: The fence is pretty. ===== From lowellr@globaldialog.com: Nice image - A little too symetrical (sp) though. Even a new school will have a little trash in the grass, a couple of random lights left on, maybe a broken window ( or two ) and where is the grafite ? ===== From bill.marrs@pureatria.com: Ah, I love that "clean" look that only ray-tracing can produce. ===== From klynn@minn.net: great fence ===== From jjanger@mail.cspp.edu: Having done a fence in HClPolo, I can appreciate what a good job you did on the fence here. Also, the grass looks great on the left side. The right ... ? Err, needs work? ===== From tlyons@gnn.com: Y E S ===== From pward@acslink.aone.net.au: Nice work with the grass and fence ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Everything looks too shiny, bright, and perfect. How about some grunge? Excellent chain link fence. ===== From 93johnst@scar.utoronto.ca: Nice image. The fence is very well done, as is the grass. As you mentioned, things tend to look a little too new, but how worn should a school look anyway? ===== From shipbrk@gate.net: Cynical? Perhaps, but unfortunately true. Great chainlink fence! I know from experience how frustrating it can be to do something that looks spectacular close-up -- but isn't shown close-up in the final image. :-/ ===== From sonya_roberts@geocities.com: Like the concept. The way the chain link fence surrounds just the area of the stairs, and the way it projects so far forward into the picture, is kind of dissettling and creepy. ===== From no13@ozemail.com.au: An excellent entry for your first.It would have scored higher if the view had not been square on. ===== From jlb36@cornell.edu: A bit dark, but different. The grass looks quite nice, as does the fence. ===== From jaime@ctav.es: It is a bit cold, but its very well done, and I love some nice details, like the grille. Jaime (jaime@ctav.es) ===== From marvil@algonet.se: Interesting concept! The light and camera position could have been more interesting.
