From luisvaloyes@malditasea.zzn.com:
very nice for a first render, keep working...

From tony@j4tb.com:
I think the image looks great you just need a little more depth in your subject.
It would help if you gave some idea of what the item is.

From elvish_archer@mailcity.com:
weird....hey what is the red spot means?
textures need hard work

=====
From Stickgod01@aol.com:
You have a product for a week, make one real rendering, and decide to submit it
in a competition. Hm...
Anyway, Nice modelling, but this doesn't really show anything. I'm left
wondering what this is, where it is, and what it's doing.

From stephenhasmail@yahoo.com:
Your tool is very interesting, but I wish you would have tried to show what it
did, or make a model of a real tool.  I don't know a lot about 3D studio MAX,
but I think the effort you put into this image (apart from the steep learning
curve) doesn't really match up with that of other entrants in this competition.
 I like your lighting effects.

From whhale@nvl.army.mil:
Looks a bit blurred and rather static.  perhaps a glow on the light tube coming
from the device would have been helpful.

From marlo.steed@home.com:

Not sure what I am looking at.

From StephenF@whoever.com:
Definitely nice considering the level of experience.  The 
reddish tubing looks good, and I like the texture on the 
wall.  I would like to see what you could do with a 
larger, more involved scene, but take your time, get the 
basics down, and then expand your efforts when you 
feel comfortable with it.

From jaime@ctav.es:
Not so bad for one week of experience... but a bit undefined (perhps you
wanted it so?).

=====
From tom@tomandlu.co.uk:
Not bad as a detail, but a whole picture?

From albiaprime@aol.com:
Artistic: Simple but pleasing for a First Effort
Technical: re-rendering time, how long is too long considering there are images
in this competition past and this round with render times in the 10's of hours.
Basically just curious, if you could tell us please next time. Thank you
Theme: obviously a close up of a piece of lab equipment but doesn't quite convey
the theme completely.  Very original though, good luck next round.
