music2u4u · August 2013

Just a little NAE I did last night. Young girl has no problem getting low to take the 57 TBird's order!

Handicapped?...NOT!

GRNgiant7713, you're definitely not having an "unfair advantage". Your entry is very pretty - the reflection, the weeds, the pines. What I really enjoy is the subtlety of the work: the prosthesis is so finely included - it shows it's nothing weird, just a normal accessory like sunglasses or something similar. What puts me off 0 only a bit though - is that car. At first, I was wondering what kind of paddle the man's using. Only after a few seconds I realised the car is blending with the paddle. If you want, try to move it away a bit. That's all. Even though you list this render as a non-entry, I feel you deserve my entry gifts totally! I kindly ask the judges to include you in the list of receivers.
Star Books, I'm very sorry if you didn't have good fun this time. My advice is that you recreate the image with real people instead of aliens; I understand you might have wanted to play metaphorically, but I must keep the judges' views and therefore I'm kindly asking you to rework your render. After this, you'll still be able to take part and so on. I hope you're not offended.

KaribousBoutique, your entry is very fine and mood-boosting, so to say :). She knows her limitations, but doesn't mind that and that's perfectly captured! The only thing I'd like to ask you is to remove the direct link to the hairstyle and possibly paste the closest link instead. The contest's rules ask not to link directly. That's all :).

Carola O, I see you know how to use MilDog to create cute renders! I don't see a troubled person, but a man and his dog, that's all. Good job. The prosthesis is an interesting freebie.

"How did you get lose" is an entry that may qualify for the contest. However, a few things must be fixed prior to accepting it: firstly, indicate which freebies require registration (I suggest writing something like "register to get", some entrants put a certain mark like an asterisk); secondly, Wild Many Hair should be listed as a no-count since you apparently got it with Genesis Starter Essentials shipped with DAZ Studio. Lastly, my last suggestion: include lights in your scene. A friend told me lights are approximately 70% of the render's quality and you know what? She was right! Even the simplest UberEnvironment light makes a huge difference.

And Mmalbert's "Girls' Day Out" is fantastic! I'd sweat you didn't use nearly only freebies there, but put the scene together with paid-for items from the store. The woman are happy, chatting and laughing. You can see they're having good time. Frankly, I have little idea on what can be improved. Maybe the sky could be made slightly less blurry - usually you can see more clouds' details. But truly, you can surely leave it and it won't lose its quality. Good job you used various freebies!

I feel we as judges should put an emphasis on submitting renders that show we are all equal rather than showing any differences. That's why I like the subtle way "Welcome to Holland" is composed.

I'm submitting another version of my render. This time I put Edwina into a frantic pose. You'll have to click on the image to view it fullscreen, because otherwise you will not be able to notice their expressions correctly (I posed their eyes totally myself!). I used another freebie from Richabri's Simplicity Set, that's a decorative plant. I moved the previous one into the left corner. The rest of the freebies is the same. The description is here.

FREEBIES:

(register to get) Gwyneth Dress from Jan19 (with my own shader - red 61, green 61, blue 61)
(register to get) Maturing Pack for V4 from Tempest (converted for Genesis by Wancow, the link goes to Genesis version as the original pack for V4 is linked there too)
(register to get) SSS Shaders from Wancow
(register to get) Hand Jive for Genesis from Katastrophe
(register to get) Window Seat from CoolTuna
Spinning Wheel from Sams3D (the site links to Sams3D are down, but Sam accepts e-mail requests for all of his stuff)
General Store Bottle and Chest without stand from Mapps
Necklace from Faerie-Dreams
Wreath from LM-Design
Fruit Bowl from MortemVetus/Andi3D
(register to get) Elven House Figurine from Arah
(register to get) Medieval Boots from JaneB
(register to get) Greehouse Potted Plant in a Pot from Richabri
Candle and Persian Cat from Adam Thwaites
Plant[/url/] and Goblets from Mystic Nights
(register to get) Simplicity Wallhanger and Plant from Richabri
(register to get) Tribal Bow from Spyro
(register to get) When Watchers Fall Sweetheart Morph from Laticis

NO-COUNTS:

(register to get) Cabinet from Dreamland (it was a monthly freebie on Rendo, some of them can still be grabbed, but it's a roulette, so let's tag it as a no-count)
(register and checkout with software to get) Basic Female, Basic Male, Basic Female Texture (on Edwina Moira), Basic Male Texture (on Garrett), Basic Female Pose (tweaked), Basic Male Pose (tweaked), Aldora Hair, Duke Hair, Journeyer Scout Pants and Shirt from Genesis Starter Essentials
(register and link to get) Backdrop Texture from Lady-Aimee-Valentine

PURCHASABLES:

None :)!

By the way, does any of you know where can I obtain a free graduate hat please? And a graduation diploma, if it's possible.

I like this one better. Just some simple movement and directing his attention to her made all the difference.

ENTRY ACCEPTED.

RobKelk, your bar's texture is a realistic wood, I like how it turned out. The row of bottles and glasses adds a nice touch. What I'm not very enthusiastic at is a bit odd pose of the guy, he looks quite strangely. Or I may be wrong - maybe he's just extremely nervous ;). I see you recoloured the shirt - try to make it appear less plastic if you can. The poke-through is not a big deal for me. I'm more interested in texturing the shirt with a cloth shader - maybe one of Wilmap's free packs will help you? You can apply one and then colour it to suit your tastes. The woman is definitely more self-assured. Overall, it's a nice render, but there are a few things that can be improved. Nevertheless, you're on a good way :).
Thanks for all replies about the clothes. Now I can fiddle with them, thanks!

For all entrants: I need your response on possible donation of sneak-peek versions of texture sets for Xylia Double French Braids 2 and Harlow 2. Thank you in advance.

I managed to get the shirt to look slightly less plastic by making it a slightly darker shade of blue... (see below) Any further work would require more tinkering than I have time for at the moment, alas.

(EDIT: Come to think of it, the image might be better this way - not as a work of art, but as an example of how to use the freebies. Folks can see the outfit he's wearing and see the difference between simply changing the colour and applying a proper texture... So I'll leave it at this.)

As for his pose, that's intentional. He's at a disadvantage in that the cues he's getting from her aren't the cues he's used to - for one thing, he can't see her eyes - and it's throwing him off, but he isn't letting that stop him from talking with her.

Okies I updated it a bit, and fixed my links, so here it is!

How did you get lose?

Out intrepid Michael was captured! But they made the mistake of merely handcuffing his arms together! Now he is loose and getting ready to kick some butt!

It looks better, Star Books! What we only need to accept your entry is:
- indicating which links require registration;
- listing which items are no-counts (stuff from Genesis Starter Essentials should go there!).

Evening paddle

I love the thought of a gentle evening row on a serene pond. Sounds like a great way to end the day!
Nice touch with the leg prostheses on the shore. I really like that imagery of him getting away from his limitations.
Man, now I want a cabin in the mountains by a lake!!! ;)

For some of us, the act of embracing life makes one a superhero. Just deciding to breathe is another one of those everyday activities that most people take for granted.

Really beautiful render. A great reminder for all of us to appreciate the little things that we often just speed right by everyday. :-)

Carola O said:

Handicapped?.. NOT! - Playing with my Dog

Nice interpretation of the theme. I couple of minor things I might comment. Narrowing the shot to focus on the man and the dog might help bring a little more attention to the subject. Slight change in camera angle (for example looking at the guy from over the dog's shoulder ) could help increase the depth and keep the render from looking too flat.

Ha ha. I wonder if that's how Houdini did it? ;)
Hmmm, you could do a follow up render of him knocking out the guard using his arm as a club! :-P

You've chosen a difficult subject to portray with an image. I do like the pose better in this render... it gives her a "Helen Keller" quality.
Though the render is set a night, I wonder if this would not be better with more intense indoor lighting effects, for example a candle or fireplace and perhaps some moonlight spilling in from the background to backlight the characters depending on your intent.
Out of curiosity, why is the male character holding a bow... I think missed something in the original post. :)

OK! Here's my entry. In a post-apocalyptic world. Anything that will grow even the scrawniest plants is considered valuable. With her hair just growing back from the radiation in the dirty bomb land mine that cost her her legs. She climbs to the top of the guard tower to take her turn at protecting the "farm".

GrapeGrandpa, thanks for your entry. I like how the textures are laid, you can almost feel the rock. I'd only kindly ask you to edit your post with the image and copy the links into it, add the link to the rope and delete the second link to Soto's Flat Top Hair. Last, but not least, please write which items require registration. Then the entry will be eligible for acceptance :).

Tramp Graphics, you did a really good job on lighting. It looks as if there were candles lit on the other side of the wall. You have many freebies used. However, I feel that there could be less empty floor on the lower left side of the image. I never understood ninja popculture, but I guess you know what you do since there are many renders of yours with this theme. What is a bit troubling is that the arms - well, they look as if he had gauntlets on them (you know, if it wasn't for your description, I would never guess the theme). Thank you for submitting it.

Aargh - you beat me to it... but my scene isn't too much like yours (and my list of freebies is different), so I'll go ahead with my entry anyway.

Oh, dear.

Glad you'll enter your version, though. I enjoy looking at everyone's ideas for the challenge's theme.

Did you use the Lorehand Cane too, or did you find an actual guide stick? I searched all over and had no luck. Originally, I wanted to use a seeing eye dog, but the MilDog has nothing like a harness or a leash, much less a seeing eye dog harness. Not even as a pay-for item.

Neither, actually - I used Zippo's walking stick, and made the handle completely transparent in the Surfaces tab. It's almost perfect; all that's missing is the wrist loop.

And, since the render's done, I may as well post it. No title, no story - I'll just let the artwork speak for itself.

Paid

None!

Somehow, I missed an entire page up in here...sorry for the delay. I like this Kirk guy...he's smooth. But he will probably never amount to anything....wha?.....huh?.....oh, he did......well nevermind folks I'm too late!

ENTRY ACCEPTED.

well I'm off to the hospital for my surgery, see everyone in a few days

Normally I'd say "take care of yourself," but you've got specialists to do that for you this time... Hope all goes well and you're back soon!
