[ieatrulers]

[Ψ]

my opinion: 400X400 is too small

[ieatrulers]

i agree, 400 x 400 is small


is there only one entry per person? i'd like to do a few

[esnetni]

[esnetni]

wow im impressed.

[Nikaosky]

Great work calvintage!

I'd love to see it with that big tilted beam thing removed but I realize that this is just a fun piece and that's a whole lotta work.

[esnetni]

c'mon people you only got 6 more days.

[simplistik]

GJ calvin... since you still have 6 days though you may want to fix most of the angles :lol: nice job though :thumb2:

I may do somethin... within those 6 days. I luv manipulations

[BoonDock]

Ok ok, I'll participate...I'll have my entry in tonight around 10 or so! So be looking for it, I'll try to pull in some other Kirupians as well. Be ready! :thumb2:

[calvintage]

thanks guys.

nikaosky, i removed the tilted beam on the bottom and yea, it does look a lot better. less distracting. removing the one above will take some work..

simplistik, i fixed a few angles. i think others are barely noticeable now.

beam removed, few angles fixed, and added a few more layers:

I still see quite a few angles off. But if I'm the only one seein them, I guess it's not that big a deal :D

[Nikaosky]

Good stuff. I can't wait to see with the entire beam outta there.

Keep going :}

[BoonDock]

Can we use any image in any way?

[creativeFuzion]

I still see quite a few angles off. But if I'm the only one seein them, I guess it's not that big a deal :D

I notice them. I took the *ehegm* liberty to point a couple out.

[simplistik]

That's not true, all lines don't need to be perpendicular, it's perspective. Though the picture doesn't get it right, that's not why it's not right. :)

[calvintage]

lighting perhaps? inconsistent layers? i dunno where to go from here. :|

[esnetni]

I think im going to need judges, I can't judge it by myself it wouldn't be fair.
Any takers.

[calvintage]

thought we were doing polls?

[creativeFuzion]

That's not true, all lines don't need to be perpendicular, it's perspective. Though the picture doesn't get it right, that's not why it's not right. :)

Actually, sorry to defer, but it is true. What buildings do you know of that converge in the middle at 2 opposing angles? I don't know of any. Hmm, their are a few other things. But yea, just mess around and make them perpendicular, and see which one looks better in your opinion.

[BoonDock]

Nice reflections on the car there Simp. Yeah I'd like to see your photos that you used. (I said I'd have mine up last night, but it'll have to be tonight instead...took a little longer than I was expecting)

[simplistik]

Nice reflections on the car there Simp. Yeah I'd like to see your photos that you used. (I said I'd have mine up last night, but it'll have to be tonight instead...took a little longer than I was expecting)here's the source... i decided to post them now. Took me about 3hrs total to do it. the hardest part was actually the reflections... mainly cause I basically had to "refabricate" the car to get rid of the original ones. I wanted to make it look like a legit car promo piece... and I think I accomplished it pretty stinkin well, it's fooled quite a few people.

http://www.beyondthepixel.com/images/acura_originals.pdf

Once I get back home I'll post credit to the photography that I got from SXC.

[Ψ]

It sure fooled me :D

Overall a job very well done. eventho i already congratualted you on MSN :D

[esnetni]

wow this thread is more popular than i tought.

[simplistik]

:sigh: *sigh* here it is for those of u that it bothers to download the PDF

http://www.beyondthepixel.com/images/acura_promomanip/

Also included the links to the originals... still waiting on one of the photo approvals though from the author's so I can use this in my portfolio.

~Philip

you were saying?

[esnetni]

this is getting good.

[BoonDock]

Ok so here is mine...about 4 hrs. total. (look for minor details like birds and moss)

These are the pics I used...

http://www.phoenixwave.com/jungle_used.jpghttp://www.phoenixwave.com/notre_dame_used.jpg

Here is the result...

http://www.phoenixwave.com/notre_dame_jungle.jpg

If you would like to see a bigger pic, let me know and I will post a link to a bigger one. Hope you like!

[calvintage]

omg. i like this. i think you should add more stuff to it but it looks awesome so far.

[BoonDock]

Yeah I tried to break some parts of it, and added some moss to try to make it look like it was getting overwhelmed by the jungle as years go by, I even added birds, but I couldn't think of anything else to add...heck, I even put the water in there, but you can't hardly see it because the jungle has basically overwhelmed everything that used to be there...

any ideas on what i could do to improve it or to add to it?

[Nikaosky]

That's awesome boondock!

[calvintage]

IMO flock of birds on top of the castle?

[BoonDock]

I put a small flock to the right side of Notre Dame...can you see them? You might need a bigger pic to see them?...
