===== From sshaw@fas.harvard.edu: You have created a very striking image here. The single object in the scene, the guillotine, is well done and has sufficient detail to satisfy my desire for that in a scene. However, since it is the only object, I would like to have seen more done with the surface; this looks like very expensive and well polished wood, which I am not sure is realistic. Using the document in the background works. ===== From Martin.Magnusson.7121@student.uu.se: Excellent concept. Good modelling too, I don't think this scene could be made a lot better, but still it's a bit too simple to get a high technical score. ===== From jerry@hoboes.com: Yipes! Cool perspective, and nice choice for background. Would have made a good horror entry also! ===== From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de: Quite a simple scene, yet rather impressive, especially the contrast between the declaration of human rights and the guillotine. The blade is too smooth but at the same time too little shiny to convincingly represent steel. It rather looks like a modern age ceramic material. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Good structure. I would have preferred to see the text tilted the same angle as the guillotine. ===== From ethelm@bigfoot.com: Pretty gruesome, very on topic and very well done. ===== From 101741.541@compuserve.com: brrrrrrrrrr... Would never become my screen wallpaper ! These engines makes me shiver since I seen (long time ago) a real one in a museum... Would be a good contender for the "horror" round. ===== From r@pluto.icom-solutions.com: Liked the composition. I had assumed that the blade was quite thin but it looks very thick (about 5cm) in this image. Notable for composition
