===== From BigTrav2001@chartermi.net: Funny description, and nice image. ===== From babouche13@YAHOO.fr: good idea ===== From pixel_guy@hotmail.com: rock on Blender! nice image, but next time do your own modelling ;P ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: This has a nice look to it. The grass looks really good, and the fence works well. The scene itself has a very real feel to me, much more than the sum of its individual parts. ===== From marlo.steed@home.com: Nice concept. The details are not quite convincing... too rigid (e.g. trees are too straight and bees are all in same position). ===== From marcelocarvajal@ieee.org: Artistic? Not, at all. Technical? I expected more realistic trees and insects. The concept is original, but I don't think is a good interpretation of the theme. You should work harder with lights. ===== From lrwii@janics.com: The grass looks real. The use blender to animated the bees make them look all the same. ===== From delfeld@mailcity.com: Nice work. Try using lighting (contrast between hues and values) to direct the eye to the important parts of the image. Reference Caravagio's paintings and Raphael's work. This is a general note for everyone who entered a realistic image this contest, since IRTC has problems with "Additional Comments": Realism is nice, but why is realism significant artistically? Is there any other way(s) to represent more accurately, or more beautifully, which are not realistic methods? ===== From file: The trees seem a bit barren to me - the branches are too straight. Other than that nice scene. ===== From file: not bad but your background needs some work ===== From file: Notable for textures, composition, originality
