OK,.......this is going to be my entry for the March challenge,.......the working title is "Clutter",.....I get the feeling it's not quite done, you know, needs more stuff, but what ? Any ideas ? This is lit with a single spot with edge softness at about 50% and soft shadows at 75%. Render time was about 7 hours. Thanks for your attention,.....TOM(sackrat).

seems like the pic is a bit too ambiant, the light that is... but hey, otherwise amazing modelling and what not. drac

Yeah, I know, don't know what to do to change the lighting, any darker(the spot) and it gets way to dark. I was thinking of trying Flaming Pear's Melancholytron filter. Oh yeah,....the modeling is good,......too bad most of it isn't me, except for the ashtray, the pilsner glass, the pushpins, the celtic knots paperweight and the coins, they're all imports, the centerpiece being FWtempests rolltop desk. Maybe if I used a Zenith lighting rig for the lighting ?

Quite an image, my kind clutter though, looks good, doesn't seem to need anything to me...:)

Terrific! What does the post-it note say?

I think it's way too good to enter. Maybe try something a little simpler that gives me a chance to win?

That looks great. I don't know what else it needs. When I first saw the salt shaker, I thought why is there a salt shaker. Then I realized, because it's clutter. :) I love that skull! Still got a bit of dried flesh on it. :)

Well done. I agree with htose that have said leave it. I don't think it needs anything else. re: the Lighting, what if you widened the diameter of the spot and then brought the candle power down? It's a trick we used to use in stage lighting. Haven't had occasion to try it in Bryce, but I suppose it'd be worth a shot? JL

Wow.... Nice work Sackrat. I wouldn't change anything other than the lighting if you can figure out how to do that with out darkening it up too much. Looks good as it is though in my humble opinion. Nice work man.
