From digitalburn@totalise.co.uk:
good, but the whole image looks a bit flat, as if it needed more contrast.
perhaps deep shadows illuminated only by very birhgt aquariums would have been
better.

From darwallace@earthlink.net:
Nooooo.  I agree that your scene is incomplete but simplicity will hit your
technical score, at least for me.  I rate object variety highly.  Pipes and
valves, perhaps under floor grating, is my initial recommendation.

From pbourke@swin.edu.au:
I didn't get the feel that it was underwater perhaps larger
windows are needed? An OK scene but nothing special.

From luisvaloyes@malditasea.zzn.com:
I think the image lost quality with the .jpg conversion, the next time try to
get better quality...

Nice concept....

From tony@j4tb.com:
Perhaps if its different enough you can submit to the next IRTC. (The
Laboratory) Not too bad for a first time entry and test render.

From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com:
Nice try especially for a first, but as you say, lack of time shows ...
pity.
There is a nice atmosphere indeed, but it feels a bit empty / cold /
clean.

From StephenF@whoever.com:
This does have a very unfinished look to it... I think it 
would look quite good if more time were spent on it.  
The fishtank looks very nice; it's a shame more of it 
can't be seen... it could have made a good picture all by 
itself, it looks like.

From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk:
A good first entry.  The textures need a lot of work, and we can't tell if
there is actually water in this room or not, so it nees something to show
us the, like a coffee table with a cup and a teapot on it, and if the room
is full fo water then have bubbels coming out of the teapot, and if there
isn't then have a cigarette on in an ashtray with smoke rising from it. 
These additions would also ad a bit of interest and make the image much less
stark looking.  I hope to see more of your work in future rounds.

From delfeld@mailcity.com:
Good start to competing.  Of course you should finish, but try starting with the
most important objects first (if you are going to interpret a theme, then you
have to at least state the thesis visually).  The room is usually not the most
important, and can be done later.  Lighting is, but try to set up at least 2
lighting schemes -  one for the final render, and one for testing.  The
lighting and camera placement I always find being changed at the last minute,
so expect those to be one of the last things done.  
Have fun, and happy thinking!

Not convinced this lab is underwater. Also, there needs to be more detail,
objects on the floor, etc.
