Thank you very much, I had much fun working with this scene in the contest as it's one of my favorite themes. First time I've really won anything. Again thanks :)

Congrats, bh404 -- I'm really impressed with your stuff. There were some amazing entries, too. I don't envy the judges this time around. Also, I'm impressed that there were so many RDS entries; for an old orphan package, it's still able to produce some incredible images. - Dex

Good job bh404, I can tell a lot of work went into both your scenes. I'm not sure, I may like your other entry a little better than the one they chose. Way to go!

Tell me about it. If it wasn't for the fact that there's similar features and still some plug-ins for it I would've moved on to Carrara by now. I'm probably the scarse few that's still using a RDS version earlier than 5.5.

Congratulations. I also like image 31 better... Great texture work! The pavement and sidewalks textures add a lot of realism to the scene. Did you make them yourself or are they pictures?

The sidewalk texture was done by using a texture map of concrete then it was place in a a mix operator with squares pattern in the color channel. The road texture I found on the net which was heavily altered in Photoshop.
