===== From fmurr@free.fr: fine nacre like texture, even if the bumpy lines in circle on the tea pot appears strange to me.(i would have used another mapping type like "Global" with Flat or Cube activeted, or 'Win' + Flat or Cube. ===== From staff@clickquicknow.com: Its a great picture... but you look as though your potential is much higher. ===== From jouni@mikrobitti.fi: A nice teapot covered with an interesting texture. Unfortunately not the only teapot this round... ===== From ruy@hipernet.com.br: Nice work! I like the textures and the stylized yin-yang. Keep it up. ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: Nice looking image... the textures on the tea pot don't look natural and something about the lighting doesn't seem natural. ===== From lrwii@joplin.com: The color scheme is good. The placement of things are to much in line and centered. ===== From chris_hormann@gmx.de: Simple, but yet effective ===== From bbowen@cswnet.com: Yep. Tea pretty much sums up Asia, that and pajamas. The lighting here is very well done. It adds an air of professionalism. While the teapot and the cup have some of the most interesting textures I've seen, I expect is because you used a planar projection bump map rather than cylindrical or spherical.( Either that or the poles were oriented side-to-side for spherical). If it wasn't intentional then it is something to notice in the future.
