===== From helene.dumur@free.fr: Good work, but the wall seems to be unfinished ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: Nicely done. More attention to a realistic background and lighting and bit of dof could have turned this into a stunning entry. ===== From tigerhawk@stic.net: I remember those! Those things were awesome! Nice scene, but I took some points off because of the lightning, floor and wall textures. ===== From irtc@maartendinger.net: Nice picture overall. The bricks, however, need work - the PovRay bricks function makes IMO incredibly unconvincing looking bricks. Check out http://www.shipbrook.com/jeff/raytrace/bricks.html for a tutorial for making more realistic looking bricks with PovRay without resorting to isosurfaces. ===== From rgow@lanset.com: Good concept & good modelling. Walls not up to the level of the toys though. ===== From jacoons@ameritech.net: Extra points for realism, but i deducted points for the lack of detail on the walls, window and sky. Also (just my opinion), having lights *in* the room would have allowed the toy surfaces to reflect light, which would have added realism. Still, you received one of my highest scores. ===== From enrique.sahagun@uam.es: I know meccano and it has remembered me lots of good times when I was a kid. I have played a lot with it. Seems that you have worked a lot in the meccano pieces but the background is a bit simple. And finally I would like you to explain to me what I think it is a joke, the one of the "erector". ===== From jgrimbert@free.fr: The wall needs more work to reach the technic level of the models. ===== From jouni@mikrobitti.fi: Nice Meccanos, wealthy with detail. Too bad you didn't have the time/energy to give equal focus on the background and the floor textures. ===== From p.gibellini@teinos.com: Meccano pieces are very nice. The room could be better. ===== From bertram.henze@t-online.de: I used to play with this kind of metal construction kit, when I was a boy. What I miss a bit is the "feel" of screws tightened and loosened a hundred times and scratched accordingly, of tin sheets bent this way and that so often that the surface is bumpy and the paint starts to peel - in short all the traces of use that optically distinguish metal from paper and cardboard. Try next time.
