                      44th Daz3D Bryce Render challenge


 

                                                    Now Sponsored by Daz 3D                                                     

 

                         Theme for this challenge is Sunrise, Sunset

*`·._.·*·._.·´*`·._.·*·._.·´*`·._.·*·._.·´*`·._.·*·._.·´*`·._.·*·._.·´*`·._.·*·._.·´*`·._.·*·._.·´*`·._.·*·._.·´*`·._.·*               


                                        Could almost be two themes in one challenge


.                                                                   There's a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they're absolutely free.



                                                                           Every sunset is also a sunrise. It all depends on where you stand.                                            
 


                                                                                                                  Should be Fun                                                                                 


                                                                                              Your imagination is the only limit


 

 

This thread is the WIP thread, so you can post here to show us how things are coming along before the render is transferred to the actual Contest thread for judging. You don't have to do that.we collect up all the finished ones and make the thread, with each render given a number and title, but no artist name shown, so it's a blind judging thread for the judging panel.

 

Rules

  • 
     
    All renders must be new renders.
  • 
     
    You can enter up to 3 renders.
  • 
     
    You must abide by the DAZ 3D forum TOS
  • 
     
    Imported content is allowed, but the render must be obviously a Bryce render.
  • 
     
    Post Work permitted, but please keep it to a minimum.
  • 
     
    Rules may be changed for subsequent Challenges, depending on the theme and the person who has selected it.
  •  

Please don't post your entry renders anywhere else until after the Challenge is judged, as judging is done in a blind judging thread, so the Judges don't know who has done which image.

Challenge ends Nov 30th 2020:- Midnight DAZ 3D time

DAZ 3D Sponsorship, in the form of Store credit

Ist place $30     2nd place $20     3rd place $15

In addition DAZ 3D Store Credit will be given to the people whose renders are selected as the Honourable mentions,

  • @ Horo: Wonderful play of light in the trees.
    Good work.

  • My first Entry:

     

    First learn stand, than lean fly.

    A wisdom from Mr. Miyagi from Karate Kid:

    "First learn stand, then learn fly. Nature rule, Daniel-san, not mine."

    A wisdom that also applies to Bryce, I think.
