===== From mjklein00@msn.com: Very Photorealistic! Poor fish. ===== From charliemc@prodigy.net: I really like the idea. ===== From elvish_archer@mailcity.com: not understood u must explain first I guess ===== From tim_cutho@smileyface.com: WOW, it's so realistic! Although, I'm not sure what it has to do with the subject. You should have written a more descriptive text file. ===== From hgregory3@aol.com: Technical - Nicely done ground, good use of layering ===== From steve@neurotrain.com: A 18 T 20 C 15 Well framed, excellent proportion, good lighting. I would like to see the fish right side up. Technically - perfect! [One extra note: I was surprised at how poorly Rat's life did. Though disgusting, it was an excellent image]. Concept is good. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Awww, what a sad image. A bad place indeed. You did a good job with the very dry look of the image -- no water anywhere. Logical and contrasting, both at the same time. Outstanding textures. ===== From hfventer@ing.sun.ac.za: Wonderful textures ===== From white@rational.com: Fish eyes look wet. You could have been going for a live wet fish vs. dry barren ground, but I wasn't sure. ===== From file: Your texturing is wonderful, that's the best use of displacement mapping in MAX that I've seen! ===== From file: Your fish looks like a bottle with fins. I would try and round it out. Nice Textures ===== From file: Very strange, as usual, but interesting anyhow. Superb displacement maps and textures. Only light seems a bit dull. Notable for modelling, composition, originality, textures ===== From file: very nice (as usual) ===== From file: badass! Notable for modelling, textures ===== From file: This picture is just absolutely beautiful, and is completely original! The textures and lighting are so realistic.
