===== From exether@demo.xandmail.com: Nice image, with good lighting and constrast. It is a ruin and still everything is too perfect, if you take the fronton that remains on the columns, we see the back of it and so we should see the breaks of the stone that have fallen. It also seems that the standing broken column are hollow and apart from the break they are perfectly maintained it seems. On the ground there should not be only column pieces but also some squarish blocks of stone. But these details are usually difficult to design and take a lot of time. ===== From noe.falzon@tiscali.fr: Very nice, I think, and original. ===== From god@rajram.com: I liked the image a lot, just a bit too much overgrowth to show decay. ===== From rgow@lanset.com: Good concept. Lighting & vegetation work well. Columns look a bit too clean for ruins. ===== From hildurka@simnet.is: According to your text file you have used great technique, but I_m not so sure the result shows this. Why are the columns hollow? It looks like they are made of paper, the tiny shadows suggest this. Something here is bothering me. The columns that are still standing, all have an uneven break, but the parts on the ground don_t (which is far more realistic). Another thing, the pattern on the columns looks modern/futuristic, but at the same time this image suggests ancient ruins. Also the color supports this. The soft light is O.K. but the layout looks a little flat, the depth is missing. ===== From the_dark_allies@hotmail.com: Good attempt. Though you may want to work more on textures and dirty things up. ===== From Knight-Graphics@earthlink.net: Are those columns hollow? Continue to push the limits of your imagination (and your computer). ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: The columns look good, but on close inspection you can tell that the broken columns are hollow (I wondered why the ones on the ground had smooth breaks at first). It might be possible to fix this problem is you used boolean statements to create a discontinuous function for your isosurfaces. ===== From slone@hiwaay.net: The overall look of this image is very good. The radiosity provides some nice shadowing in the center, on the fallen cylinders, but it washes out a lot of the standing columns. The columns would look better with more surface variation, they look too clean. The grass growing out of the flat floor looks odd (and chopped-off), and the floor texture appears out of focus, as does the texture on the cat. The distant hill tops look great. ===== From file: I like the background a lot, but the foreground's textures are too flat, and the grass up-close has no tips! Not bad overall. Notable for modelling
