===== From cdsi26@bupers.navy.mil: Ok I'll be nice. Pointers... More blood on the body. Blood on floor needs darkening. I highly recommend a rat or two. Good Luck ===== From ameede@madmac.com: I would have liked to see more of the figure, perhaps the horror on her crazed face. Also the only spike with a 3 dimensional look to it is the one on the far left. The other two appear flat. I find this same problem with the figure. Finally you might have considered some type of symbolic imagery such as a mural placed on the squares of the floor, or even the wall that might help communicate to the viewer additional informations about your story. ameede@madmac.com ===== From patrickd@netins.net: Blood too transparent ===== From dwallace@lynx.dac.neu.edu: The scene is incomplete. It needs torches, doors, nibbling rats, maybe a skull or some bones. ===== From tina@ripco.com: The blood looks more like wax and the spikes seem unrealistic. I had no trouble interpreting this as horror, your smart remarks in your file notwithstanding. ===== From ericf@foothill.net: I don't too much to complain about in this image, except for wanting more detail. Not of the woman, or of the elements in the image, but more details to flesh out the story behind the image. Everything seems to stand alone too much. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Good lighting & contrasts. But the scene lacks the detail to tell a story. How about, for example, adding some busted shackles to indicate she was a prisoner? Or the shadow of someone chasing her? Unusual camera angle: because there is nearly no foreshortening of the grid pattern, the image seems to be taken with a telephoto lens from a faraway camera. By the way, if that is the pressure plate in the middle of the scene, how did she get spiked in the back? ===== From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk: Nice textures and a well laid out but simple scene.
