Beautiful xfrog trees as always.

Strange! I said Atom Heart Mother, than thanks for reminding- and Pink Floyd was gone! Can you only post one comment?

amazing realistic image

Thank you Anthropon and pc_artist. Mr.Deltoid: Apparently yes, in order to post a new comment one has to delete the previous one... But now that your first comment disappeared, and that I deleted my first reply because of that, I have to reconstruct the thing else nobody can understand! So for the sake of those who read now: what Mr. Deltoid said, is that my image reminds him of that Pink Floyd album cover. And I told him that I can see that the pose of the cow is similar, but it's a standing cow after all (standing cows don't come in too many flavours... lol!) Anyway if there was an influence it must have been subconscious, because the last time I used to listen to (and look at) that record, it was in my high school days (TOO many days ago!) :-)

hehe that duck is so cute! and the cow texture is really realistic. my only suggestion is that there seem to be tufts of grass only in the foreground that stop after the cow.. it just doesn't look right. great job overall!

Hi Bluevenus! You seem to have gotten the spirit of my picture which is indeed humouristic :-) I thought it was funny to show a duck that wants to be friend with the big cow :-) Also the idea was to be humouristic about the exciting daily life of a family cow. :-) That's why for the title I made a parody of a famous Mallarmpoem ;-) The idea for the grass was to show the limit where it was still uncut, and to display the cow standing there in an eternal indecision, maybe wondering about what could have happened to the appetizing tall grass that used to be there... LOL :-)

Nice job. Great looking cow. Love the grass.(haven't said that in a while LOL)

I like it. love grass too....looks just mown. I would have like to see the duck under the cow with the cow looking lovingly into his eye's....but that is just what came next ...in my head.... when I looked at your pic. Thanks for showing.

The only offer of suggestion I would make is 1) Don't listen to people who say it looks like something else - it usually means they are too uncreative themselves to think of anything other then compairing everything to everything else... enough on that 2) The tail on the cow might have needed some post work - I don't know how hard it is to do hair in Vue - but if it is anything like Bryce it is almost impossible to make hair work unless you make a model that looks like hair. The tail is a little to "unhairy" - if you look at a cows tail end it is nothing more then thick hair, which it uses to slap away flies, and make me a mess with cow shit when I was living on a farm. And since I don't like cows - I have to say your DUCK is heaps better then the cow... but I'm bais :P WiNC

this is a pretty pastoral scene. It comes together nicely.

Well, pink cheeks I DO love this image! ;) I would also love to know the title in english.. but perhaps it would not translate? and I never listened to Pink Floyd.. :) Lyne

Great Orio. I love the perspective and the cow, the grass, the duck:-) Allover a great image:-). And, Lyne, the english translation of the title is : Afternoon of a cow".

Great Picture with fine Details! It looks so REAL ! WOW !!!
