    I see many wonderful renders, too many to react on each of them, for now. Keep up the good work.

    Myself, I'm struggling with modeling a part for an entry. I started over several times in both Hexagon and Wings, but do not get it to work as I wanted. I get halfway and then fail. For Hexagon, it is usually the software itself that starts to decide to crash endlessly, while Wings makes very strangs things when subdividing.

    Nevertheless, perhaps it will work out. It should be a stone stairs that are worn out, winder at the bottom than at the top and have some additional elements on them. Too complicated for my very limited modelling skills, it appears.

    I do want to react on the WIP by Electro-Elvis. Almost there, I would say! Wonderful atmosphere. I would give the candle a candleholder, though. This is very unstable and you don't want the candle to fall over and burn the place and the lady!

    @Hansmar: Thank you. A candleholder would do it. But then I guess I will face the same problem as you, because I want to modell it in Hexagon or Wings3D :-) (Other software beasts that want to be tamed)

    Maybe you could model your stone stair in Bryce with the "New Primitives" S Ray offered here in this forum on January 30?. They have cubes with champfered/rounded edges.

    Electro-Elvis - excellent. She looks so sad.

    @Jamahoney/Yellow Pen

    The helmet was modeled in Hexagon for Mike 4 (its loosely based on the Sutton Hoo helmet). Thought I uploaded it to Sharecg, but I didn't. But if somebody can use it i can upload it.

    Thanks for all the very nice comments, much appreciated.

    Henryhor - very nice still life, awesome helmet and lighting

    Fishtales - nice idea

    Electro-Elvis - very nice wip, beautiful expression on the lady's face,  I agree with Hansmar you need a candleholder.

    Henryhor: I would be glad if you would do that, thank you smiley

    Electro Elvis: I like the light. Think a Candleholder is a nice Idea...

  • ed3Ded3D Posts: 2,177

    And thanks for all the kind remarks_``~...

    Electro-Elvis - though I see that a candle holder is somehow missing. On the other hand, the lady looks so sad and appears to seek some comfort from the candle light. She wasn't in the mood to search the household for a candle holder, just wanted to have a candle now. Not perfect but emphasising the lady's mood; for me, it fits perfectly the way it is.

    Dan - that's a superb indoor scene.

    ed3D - cool idea. Is the lady the dinner? devil

  • @ Henryhor: Camelot is a wonderful still life. The helmet looks great in this light.

    @ Fishtales: Funny idea. But here I do not think I can talk about the speed of light ;-)

    @ Electro-Elvis: A wonderful WIP. She looks so sad. The light is wonderful. A candlestick would still be the last piece that completes this picture.

    @ Dan Whiteside: Very nice lit scene. Good work.

    @ ed3D: funny idea. The title is great. ;-)

  • mermaid010mermaid010 Posts: 5,472

    Ah, what a pity. I need just a few months more to get my next entry ready crying

    So, please consider my 'possible' second entry as a real entry.
