This is really great! Just 2 things that might make it better: I would have blended the top spiral on the body into the cloth for a seamless transition. This way the head doesn't really seem attached to the body. The only other little thing is the hat doesn't really look like it's sitting on her head. Over all, it's still a fine image...good luck!
PS: If you've got the arm on a layer, just put it behind the body layer! Reply »

This is quite lovely. The hand is definitely weird. Any way you can move the arm to the other side of the body instead? I also find the scarf distracting and unnatural for the image. Would you consider creating a neck? I really like the "fantasy"! Reply »

Thank god you fixed the ARM.. cured me of the giggles and I can look at it now without cracking up..GOOD LUCK Reply »

This is a very interesting image. I agree with CMYK46 and elemare. If you're able to adjust it just a little it'll be even better. I love the smoky body of the leopard and the mask on the lady... Reply »

Super High mark.. just one question.. WTF??? I hope some universal sized KARMA will bless you to give you back all the time you put into this.. YOUR SBS INSANE.... I'm exhausted just reading it and I didn't do ANYTHING... BWHAA HAA.. If you don't place in the top 5.. I will be surprised..heheheh..good luck author.. JUST AN AMAZING AMOUNT OF WORK.. just WOW Reply »

I've never tried VRAY render.......as compared to whole scene tat intense blue aroumd photoframe and light........ bothers me rest is gud.......... Reply »

Reply:

There are 4 direct and indirect light sources hitting the picture frame, as the materials used are unrealistic it has given me huge amounts of problems with photons bouncing in all the wrong directions. Normally I would have used a gold material, or some kind of wood for the picture frame, these by default have blurry reflections but putting blurry reflections on this material on this frame created more problems I will work on trying to iron it out
PS. Vray is the daddy of all renderers... Reply »

Nice work.... The whole lightning and setting of the blue room looks so soothing... I mean the picture looks so calm... Reply »

Very stylish room, really well made, thanks for the sbs, Reply »

Reply:

I would personally crop out most of the boring ceiling. The empty fireplace opening (which doesn't seem to match the lines of the surround) is a deficiency. The furniture is cool but seems oversized relative to the back wall (or the back wall is undersized relative to the furniture). Reply »

Pretty nice furniture and I like the light. The cat is looks good too, haha . I agree with Dan about the ceiling though, it could be cropped a bit. Good luck! Reply »

Reply:

Looks extremely real. 99% real. To get the last 1% you have to add a shadow in front of the couch(closest to the window)I am not saying a very thick shadow. You just enough to make it look as if it is not floating above the ground. You don't have to change it if you don't want to. Looks really good anyways. Reply »

Cool, except for the steam -- should be wispier IMO, and probably doesnt create much of a reflection. The angle of the handle reflection seems off as well (too far from the real handle, I think). And why doesn't the white table-top oval shine not affect the tea-pot reflection? Reply »

Reply:

Lol@DanLundBerg. If you look at the SBS, you will see that the white table top is actually a reflection of the top edge of the infinite backdrop. As for the reflections, they are true to life, You cannot sinply flip and copy the object to create a reflection in 3ds max or vray. The mathematics involved and used by Vray to work the bounce of light photons is so complex it would make anyone except a physicist go faint. All the reflections are calculated and reproduced perfectly. If I were to photograph this T-pot in this situation with this light this is what you would see Reply »

Anyone else have a little difficulty mixing 3d renders with pure Photoshop entries? I do. This is gorgeous, author, but I think someone using 3d rendering programs has an apple/orange advantage over us good ol' PS choppers. Feels a bit like someone using DA artwork. ; ) Just an observation. Reply »

Reply:

good Reply »

Reply:

I have to disagree elemare. Using 3D programs is actually somewhat of a disadvantage, in a big way. It is three times more time consuming than PS, considering what is involved in even the most basic of renders. Also there is still the attitude, despite the name change that PXLEyes should be PS still, despite MrMonty stating ALL image creation software is now fully acceptable. I hope in the future they have a seperate 3D contest, as this will negate members who cannot accept the changes. Reply »
