===== From trioker@wanadoo.fr: One of my favorites. The realism of the nature is incredible, the composition is smart, and the theme is treaten with humor. But the file size is beyong the limits. ===== From brendthess@aol.com: Pigs are very well done! Good concept. ===== From kistler@nevada.edu: I love the pigs and the idea. It is very fitting that the king of all pigs is watching over them. ===== From jgoeson@msn.com: Amen. ===== From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au: Man, if you can make an image like this when work is hell, I need to get your job! Funny, good technique, composition, obviously related to the topic in a creative way... what more can I say? ===== From johnson@pharmacy.arizona.edu: Liked it! Pigs were well done, but the water in the road is too regular and hard-edged. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Strange, the further from the camera, the more believable each object appears: from the plastic pigs to the photorealistic mountain. ===== From clem@dhol.com: In a round that ran almost 50% off topic and much of the remainder marginal, this one nailed it. Very nice lush scenery. I like the textured look of the sign. The pigs are very well modelled and their faces are expressive. Obligatory nitpick: the fence could maybe be a bit more weathered. The background mountain looks a bit 2d, but works quite well nonetheless. ===== From sdevet@istar.ca: Very nice, and likely a winner (do you ever lose??) The pigs are very cute, but I feel sorry for the one on the right who has a flower growing into his butt. The texture on the "Bill" board seems a bit too wrinkly, and distracting. ===== From file: Notable for textures ===== From file: It looks like you put some effort into this image, and it was pretty well executed. Not my taste, though. A good, original entry that sticks to the theme quite well. Notable for originality ===== From file: You won. Great idea and even better modeling. One thing you might get knocked on is the background because it's an image map but it still looks great.
