===== From shevlin@uic.edu: The fur is relatively convincing and the material in the boy's coat looks pretty good, too. The snow is too smooth, though, and there scene could probably use some more details. The relationship to the topic doesn't seem all that strong. ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: The concept may work although I always judge the image independent of the description so it is a bit of stretch to see the concept of mythology. The composition of the scene is strong and the image communicates a story - that works well. The snow is not bad. The wolf or fox looks fairly realistic. The Eskimo figure needed a bit of work around the face (needed some hair) and the lack of detail in geometry shows up on the hood of the coat. ===== From jminner@sc.rr.com: Interesting, I like the look on the persons face. ===== From rgow@lanset.com: Great job on the wolf! The pose is perfect! Tracks in the snow are a nice touch. The scene could use a little more to it, it feels empty. ===== From simplepsy@aol.com: I felt that this image didnt truely fit the theme of mythology, since it could mean anything, and doesnt particualry show the viewer anything mytholological. This would rely on the viewer reading the comment - which wouldnt always be available say in a gallery. Artistly, as an image this is great. nice modeling and use of fur... so a high technical merit is warrented. ===== From the_dark_allies@hotmail.com: Good work done in this scene. The wolf looks as though he could do with some more tweaking, however it sill looks very well done. ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: The wolf is done well, especially the fur, which looks excellent. The boy is decent, but the fact that you didn't spend much time on him does show. The snow could really use more work, as it seems too dull, and the way the wolf and boy are sitting on the snow gives it a sense of hardness. ===== From file: Notable for composition ===== From file: Oh, I like the fur! The lighting is very nice. I recognize, it's difficult to model animals and humans but the wolf's head is somewhat wrong. The topic is far-fetched. And the tracks in the snow are not compatible with the characters' positions. Notable for lighting, textures
