===== Is Orville wearing camophlage? I'd suggest avoiding human forms in the future. ===== Love the sky. ===== Legos! ===== The light source should be moved according to the background ===== Looks like toys. ===== the plane look too heavy to fly ??? and stripe of grass ... a little weird ===== Good concept. The airplane is constructed on unusually large struts, though ===== For a ground texture, try importing one from VistaPro. Much better! ===== Looks to heavy to fly--maybe use thinner objects, and not wood for the look of the wings. ===== I love your people! There are *way* too many shadows, though. Perhaps turn off shadowing for all but one or two lights and use area lights for soft shadows. ===== Overall, I'm not impressed. About four more hours of work could have improved the image a great deal. The plane is a bit too simple. And it looks like a really heavy oak texture. Strip the bark and use a lighter color wood. ===== Quite atmospheric with the sky and the darker foreground. ===== The wooden pieces of the aeroplane needed to be scaled smaller in the y-axis; they are too thick. The background and foreground are too close in color saturation and luminance - little depth to the image - the plane gets lost in the strong sky. ===== I think the people are really nice, even thought they are not very realistic. An odd thing is the sky. There is a bright spot on the right, where it looks as though the sun is behind the clouds, yet the lighting in the scene is on the left. Not a big deal, but I think it is noticeable. ===== Nice and then stick in those goofy people, it takes away from the beauty of the trace ===== too cartoonish ===== The shadows of the pilots seem to imply that they don't need that plane in order to fly. Dark shadows hide details on the plane. ===== These could have been perfect for my little brother's christmas... ===== Looks a little too heavy to fly ! ===== Odd Hands?!? ===== Don't get discouraged; this is what my efforts look like sofar. I, like you, need to get past the geometric primitives and into more natural looking shapes. Take a look at your competition this month; some of them are giving away their sources, so you have some new material to try out. ===== wONDERFUL CONCEPT LACKS ECHINCAL SKILLS OF SOME.. ===== looks somewhat naive, but good job ===== good image! i like the colors you used. if you are trying for realism, try flattening out the wings and struts and stretching the plane longer. ===== The brothers appear to be levitating. What do they need the plane for? :-) ===== The surreal Wright brothers. ===== A very nice toy model of the Wright Flyer, with some toy figures next to it. If the scene had been set on a bookshelf, I'd have given it very high marks--but set outdoors, it looks fake. A good effort, just more thought next time.
