===== From chris@bluelectrode.com: Very imaginative and comical. It works for me, although you could've done _something_ with the wall and tree...they look so plain. Good job. ===== From bill@apocalypse.org: great "dirty metal" texturing. ===== From soulmates@gci.net: Wonderful imagery! One thing though.. Shouldn't one of the dog's paws be touching the ground? From the shadow, it appears all his paws are in mid-air. ===== From YaelParis@operamail.com: original image, maybe you should improve the sky (just a gradient color is short!) and play a bit more with lightning. You showed how good blender is, I must try it soon (I already downloaded it) ===== From whhale@nvl.army.mil: Good cliche. I love the flowers ===== From tom@tomandlu.force9.co.uk: Loved this. The figures, the cog-flowers. Would have scored more for more detail - perhaps a nice trellis of cog-flowers? ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: Very nice, I like it. Lots of spirit. And a nice sig. ===== From jaime@ctav.es: Nice idea, and well modelled. Only light seems a bit strange (too soft). ===== From wozzeck@club-internet.fr: A bit difficult to rate artistically: it's so ugly, but this goes so well with your idea... A bit more randomness for the flowers could have helped. ===== From albiaprime@aol.com: Technical - no description of how the image was created although it seems to be quite simple Artistic - Theme - difficult to imagine a garden here ===== From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au: This is very clever, and well executed. The colour scheme fits the robotic theme and the artistic effect is pleasing. To offer some constructive criticism, the flowers could have used a bit of randomisation in their arrangement (angles, number of flowers per plant, height, etc) - they just look a bit too regular. The sky is rather flat, and some clouds would look nice. But apart from that, this is really very good - the robot, the dog, the birds, the tree.. all well done.
