    Spuddy, you're thinking too much over tiny details.  It's a great image.  I like the second best.  I don't like the mouth open.

    Drachenlords, wonderful mirror effect.

    Melaniel Thanks magic yes well smoke and mirrors day is to celebrate the illusionist of old and the theme of the challenge as I understood it that's what made it a difficult one for me technically

    .but i think you meant more magic as a compliment in that you liked it and a play on words

    Yes indeed, it was intended as a compliment and also a (maybe clumsy) bit of wordplay laugh

    Slepalex good point cheers it's someting I forget to do

    NGartplay  I live for tiny details but thanks for the concern I do however agree about the open mouth so I endulged my inner detail demon and refined the mouth and smoothed the head object as per Slepalex

    Drachenlords: wowser, that is very nice and great idea. Brycini is, of course, the best magician there is!

    OK. so form my first entry, I took the theme on face value and added smoke (partly from fog patches by Horo and David Brinnen and partly made from metaballs, but difficult to see) as well as several mirrors. Title? Maybe: "Better ventilation would be good"

    @ Hansmar: smoke and mirrors in many ways. I think the idea is great, but under the middle mirror there is a foot that I cannot assign and under the right mirror I can see the rest of the table with the candles. This is real magic; -)

    Hansmar : cool idea, beautifully done.

    drachenlords : fantastic last entry.

    Based on the "game2" challenge. The portal and figure are free items by MatCretor, added smoke, mirrors, light and a dark sky.

    The tilte : simply smoke and mirrors.

    Hansmar: Nice entry.

    Drachenlords: the second is very funny, I love it. And the last one is beutiful. Both are very well done.

    adbc: I love this Picture. The Colors, the Reflection and the Smoke - all are on Point, perfect interpretation of the theme and very well done.

  • spuddyspuddy Posts: 449

    Hansmar Nice image ......... apart from drachenlords obsevations also the table should be to the left of the figure in the left hand mirror because it is behind the central figure 

    drachenlords...should have used spell check lol. Magic Rose well bringing out your A game I see simply smashing image and right on theme re celebrating the old illusionists

    adbc..Nice moody image

  • drachenlordsdrachenlords Posts: 821

    @ Mermaid: Thank you.

     

    @adbc: Thank you.

    Simply smoke and mirrors - the picture is really cool. This contrast between the light ground and the dark sky is awesome.

     

    @ Yellow Pen: Thank you.

     

    @ spuddy: Yes, should have read the text correctly again before I put it in the picture * laughs *

    Thank you.
