Open Rendering Season Contest 2016

[Szark]

well my second one is done and uploaded but not yet updated....something completely different from me this time. Good luck everyone (especially me LOL )

 

[Satira Capriccio]

It is different. But very cool.

All the submissions are wonderful!

 

[Szark]

Thank Satira.

@Ken Gilliland are we NOT supposed to have a signature on our entries? I found one of my older pieces that I think is pretty nice, cropped and sized it for the contest...but have not put my sig on yet... I'm confused- we can see who did which one in the contest gallery. Just let me know and I shall submit

Signatures are okay... the judges aren't from our 3D community so seeing a signature won't lead to any hints of favoritism. I did recommend earlier in this thread that if you do sign the work, I'd suggest making it inconspicuous. In past years, several people have submitted art with huge watermark signatures; that simply takes away from your work.

 

[Lyne]

I'd suggest making it inconspicuous.

I did!

 

[Miss B]

Yes, inconspicuous is always better, even under normal circumstances.

Take a look at my second image:

Good tip for Iray.
Look at the Rugby ball and see the jagged edge of the shadow...I missed that. I should have used Sub-D on the ball to stop that happening. Damm

 

[Miss B]

I just went and looked at it, and if you hadn't just posted about that edge, I wouldn't have noticed it.

 

[VortigensBane]

And here I thought it was one of those extra-large kiwi eggs...

too small.

And here is the proof, before and after applying Sub-D

 

[Miss B]

Ohhh, that's quite a difference Szark.

 

[Szark]

Indeed it is Miss B

 

[Stezza]

Managed to upload my entry last week but hasn't updated as of yet... Hopefully I'll be able to get a second one done if time permits but so much to do when settling into a new home.

Though rain is forecast for the next week so that might help

 

[Lorraine]

Put mine up last week and it's not showing yet either. Fingers crossed it did upload.

 

[Satira Capriccio]

Sorry guys. I need to contact Lisa. The artist nicknames seems to be missing, and I can't locate it on the submissions.

I know some of your artist nicknames, but there are submissions from others who haven't submitted before.

 

[Lorraine]

Mine was just under my own name, no nickname, Satira. If it's disappeared into cyberspace can you let me know and I'll re-upload.

 

[Satira Capriccio]

The images are there. It's just that I can't rename them with the image name by artist name.

Like ... The Baby Bird Dragon by Satira Capriccio.

 

[Rae134]

Mines there with my full name, that's ok by me (not sure how others feel about it tho)
