 Jebus...I f*cked up again and this time I actually finished a render...sigh...must be gettin old...brought it to the e computer but forgot to post...@#$%$#@#$%$#@!!!

 

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again

 

 

 

 

 

 Wait a minute - I thought the deadline was midnight? By my reckoning it's now 12:23 PM Renderosity time (CST). Isn't Rendo in Tennessee?

"Reinstall Windows" is NOT a troubleshooting step.

Maybe, May on Mars has only 30 days!lol.

I was going to vote a few hours ago but held off thinking more entries might still be accepted.

Yes, I too think there should still be some time. I think bobbyStar should still be allowed to enter, as well as any others so long as they are in no later than midnight.

I agree though that it is important to get the voting done as soon as possible, so as to avoid delaying the challenge start date for next month. I for one found it hard to keep to the deadline this month as I did not learn of the contest until a bit late, well into the month of May. Hopefully we can get a winner selected and a new theme within a few days to provide more time.

Thanks for the early votes btw!!!!!!!

Bobby, my apologies and to all you guys too. I been thinking all week that Saturday was the last day of the month. Of course the 31st is today. My bad.

Bobby, post your entry and I'll sort it out.
Keep voting though. If anyone wants to change their votes I'll organise that too.

I wasn't thinking that there was still one day left....saw the challenge was in voting and picked my votes.I think the others should still be allowed to enter as per deadline,I may want to adjust my votes accordingly!

Maybe I wasn't clear. Please upload your entries until the proper deadline.

This was terrible. A lot of good entries to choose, all of them excellent in different ways.

In case anyone should vote for me. I change my user name. I am now vncnt9663. Vincent is my real name. Rjay is not. It's a long story and I won't get into it here.

I don't care what your name is. Vote already! ;-)

And in my final hours - I would cling rather to the tattooed hand of kindness - than the unblemished hand of hate...

C-Ram -Excellent realism overall, including detail and Bryce modeling. Excellent light and reflections.  Your wisely chosen low saturation color palette adds greatly to the realism. Excellent posing, though not essential to this challenge, it is still a noteworhty job! 3pt

Orbital- Excellent application of light to tell the story of the scene! Fantastic Bryce modeling. Gorgoeus mood. Arresting energy.  Powerful result. 2pt

Dan Whiteside- Simply brilliant implementation of IBL for an indoor situation! You never fail to inspire me. I would expect nothing less. Modeling and all other details are absolutely superb! 1pt

So much excellent work! I'm hardly content with the ordering of my choices, as I find myself extremely torn and my opinions seem to change based upon the whim of my mood.  With the same enthusiasm I would love to have also acknowledged the craft demonstrated by Dhama, Wanda, vncnt9663, Grafikeer, Bobbystar, Quest, rj001, and others.  All of the various genres represented here make voting with any confidence essentially impossible.

Thanks again to Lown for choosing this theme! You brought out alot of different ideas and exposed alot of potential for Bryce as a software!

rashadcarter - 3 pts
Wanda Burns - 2 pts
Quest - 1 pts

Excellent entries lots of tough choices.

Rashadcarter : 3 points
C-ram              :  2 points
Grafikeer         : 1 point

Thanks to all of you for your comments on my post specialy to rashadcarter... it's great to see my work appreciate by a bryce master...

Here is my vote:

Rashadcarter    3pts
Wanda burns    2pts
Dhama               1pts

Again another tough choice to make. For some reason it seems to be getting harder to decide on the winners.

RashadCarter  #17 – 3 points
Wanda Burns #14 -2 points
Dhama #8 – 1 point

H.M. to Orbital, BobbyStahr, Dan Whiteside, rj001, Grafikeer, Vangogh and Thanduluz. Congratulations to all.
 

Anyone else? I'm about to close the voting.

If I may make a suggestion, those who have entered but have not voted should be sent an email to ask them to vote (incase they have missed the voting thread...

OR

They should be eliminated from the challenge.

I'm really pissed off that people who are willing to enter the challenge are not prepared to see it through and vote as well.

Dhama, that dog wont hunt. 

Voting is closed. This thread is locked. Thanks to all of you who took the trouble to vote. I will be posting the results shortly.
