===== From maarten_hofman@hotmail.com: I'm not sure what to do here, as the rules (5f) say that motion blur isn't allowed as a filter. I however take it that it is part of the Blender programme, so that makes the rules a bit unclear. ===== From awilcox@dreampeach.com: Doesn't convey lonliness to me. ===== From whitey@telefragged.com: i really like how it relates to loneliness. ===== From beighton155@yahoo.com: I love it ===== From novotek@web.de: this looks very fine - but i can't see the topic right now (loneliness speaks through images - to see and to understand is most important) ===== From jpgargoyle@sapo.pt: This king isn't lonely. HE must be TERRIFIED!! :)) Best regards. ===== From dapigg2000@yahoo.com: Good blenderage, dude. I enjoy this work. ===== From wozzeck@club-internet.fr: Great image, in every aspect! The background and motion blur make a good improvement! ===== From tim.nikias@gmx.de: IMHO the image strikes more as an act of war, than actual loneliness. The king should have been tight in a corner, the camera angle and perspective showing off its loneliness with him being the sole survivor... Otherwise well done. ===== From rclee@oklahoma.net: Great textures and lighting. Not very lonely though. ===== From glenn@mccarters.net: Great idea, but the execution does not really work for me. With so many = various colors, textures, and shapes going on, I could not tell which = side the pieces were on. So I completely missed the "lonliness" theme = at first. I like the menacing look on the rook, though. ===== From bill@apocalypse.org: Was a bit of a strech relating this scene to loneliness... the sense of destruction (cloud and broken stone) was nicely done. ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: Excellent work on the textures. The only thing I can think of in terms of improving the textures would be to have the broken rock texture "match" the brickwork. The dust is a nice effect, and I also like how you have created a 3D checkerboard instead of just a flat, checkered plane. ===== From patrick@sypa.net: Great description !! (c: ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: I like the broken castle, and the knights and pawns are interesting. ===== From jl@artcom-gmbh.de: Nice scene, but I don't see any connection to the "loneliness" topic. ===== From clem@dhol.org: Misses the point. He would be to busy/angry/scared for loneliness. Even if you are willing to be anthropomorphic.
