Thanks that's a great reference, especialy with the coins in the pic,... hmmm,... no canadian coins eh? ?;>)

Bryster,...That sounds interesting, I'ld be willing to give that idea a go! As to the wip progress, I have alot of whittling left to do. but I really like the way the handle turned out (so far). I've been looking at countless images of guns and accessories and ammo. It's like trying to count stars, there's so many of them. But I have picked out alot of things that I like and plan to incorperate some realy cool stuff that I found. I still have to design the stock, finish the barrel, add more rails, an ejection port, the safety, and so on, and so on,... I'm up to 988mbs worth of files on this thing. I do so love a challenge!

Thanks again guys, and I am still chipping away at it. And looks like I am going SMG but with style. I figure it's not for production so it's got some eye candy. Looking like the executive type firearm. I'll post a pic later tonight,... I figure one more pot of coffee and I should be ready for round 2! BTW I may make a "space blaster" or something like that out of the original design,... who knows! Thanks Guys! Artworksco ?:>)

I've been having trouble navigating renderosity quite abit lately. I blamed spyware too. I did have some and I did remove them. But strangely enough, it keeps happening, and only when I surf Renderosity? I can get to the site but every so often the link I hit takes me to something else alltogether different. Anyone having this trouble too? And did I mention It only seems to affect my attempts to navigate here?

Thanks a bunch redneck, I had never heard of "picatinny rails" before. So I did a search and found a wack of info. Even grabbed a PDF color catolog, can't ask for much more than that ?;>) This is a great challenge for myself, and I really appreciate the insight. I'll be tooling with this over the weekend and I'll post an updated version soon. Take care, and have fun ?:>) Artworksco

Thanks guys,... Yes I am going to "chop" it up into "working " pieces. I want the top part to be able to slide back for cocking the pistola ?:>) I aslo will need to seperate parts for texturizing, and hopefuly animating, should be fun!!! ?x>}

I think you might ask them for the names of the artists they have used on previous screen savers (like the $2,000 in a month one). And contact a few of these artists for first hand accounts about there dealings with the company. They should be able to tell you what you want to know regarding the "mystery formula". And they did actualy mention that they would be happy to direct anybody inquiring about the art in the screen saver to the respective artist so if they don't that would tell you right quick to back away. Hope you get some answers, and some moola! ?:>)

3-shadowdragonlord (very cool, very magical lighting effect) 2-twisted symmetry (strange looking thing, but I like it ?:>) 1-Drogan (reminds me of a album cover, Pink Floyd I think, very trippy!) Nice work everyone ?:>)

Really neat idea. Cocktail waitresses are getting nervous as we speak. ?:>)

a stripped down car is good. hmm,... maybe a working girl in the back seat,.... or a some nuns.

That's a good idea (Vile) I don't know how mush detail there is to see on the house, but a little lighting, (just a little) could add alot to the scene.

I'm sensing some tension. This was such a happy place when I found it. Sometimes I view an image and I don't comment because I have nothing "constructive" to say at the time. But the fact that the artwork was seen, regardless of how it is received, is in fact the whole point of posting in the first place I thought. If someone has something to add, that's gravy in my opinion. As to the hot 20, never seen it. I,m to busy looking through the whole gallery. Everyone here, new and old has something to contribute. And I'm glad that there all brave enough to put themselves out there for the scrutiny. Imagine if you had the chance to meet Picasso or Vangoh when they first decided to scribble. I'm sorry you and some others feel this way. It's because of people like you that others like myself can see the possibilties, and the heights that can be achieved. As to the others, this was just posted,... maybe someone here can cheer Qwister up too! http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=587686&Start=1&Sectionid=2&filter_genre_id=0&WhatsNew=Yes

I hope all goes well. Hmm,... life on mars,... I wonder what the real estate prices are like up there?

Love the image, nice high walls, makes you feel really small and overwhelmed. (side note) Hoggle is still one of my favorite characters of all time. Labyrinth was amazing,... now I'm gonna have to rent it,... thanks alot. ?:>P

I was kidding about the decaf. Ever since I read the university study that showed that men who drink five or more cups of coffee a day are far more likely to maintain there sexual potency well into there 80's... ...well,.. let's just say I have two coffee makers, and leave it at that. ?;>)
