Description
This is an experiment that I've never seen: reproducing a famous painting "as is". Some statistics: 529.000 faces, 15 lights, 23 m. to render.
I think you all should know already the original picture (1931), currently at the N/Y M.O.M.A., and one of the most viewed images from the 20th century, but here's a link on the net: http://www.ricks.edu/Ricks/Employee/DavisR/Art/Dali,%20Persistence%20of%20Memory.JPG
The question, my friends, is: what would Dali think about if he could view my version of his work? Please tell me.

Bravo....You have done an absolutely exquitisite piece of work.....I have tried St John the Cross, forever and can never get it right, I am stunned and silent (me being silent is quite a deal!)
graphicfreak
I am speechless. You have reproduced the image perfectly in the 3rd dimension. Jumping back an forwarth from your 3d image to the painting...i can't find 1 difference. Oustanding work palmix. WOW!

Hello, Dali! Great job!

Mr. King, what you did here, is something different. This is freaking goddamned topten-of-all-times-work. I did not know, that these kind of images can be done so greatly with computer. Dont ever stop what you are doing, or what pills you are taking, this is absolutely fantastic.
Hexagon
Ahh........ Err.......... Hell.........EXCELLENT!!!! What else can I say???
Delrino

In my name, and... in the name of Dali, THANKS everybody for the comments. I just pretended to do an experiment... Really didn't hope such a good welcome to this post.

This is awesome! I wonder what Dali could have done digitally? Would probably have sucked your eyes outta your head...
fdw
What can I say, the artist would be probably very proud.
Jimu
The Artist Dali......would love it, he would be doing it him self... But....Dali's Lawyers would have a field day with you.......... Sorry I know from experience, see my site: www.art-of-jimu.com... BUT...IT IS ONE FANTASTIC IMAGE......GREAT WORK..DO MORE..PLEASE.... Jimu

Holy crap - amazing display of 3D skill, SO much attention to detail...did you sample textures from the real painting? What I'd LOVE to see is your picture in a 3D stereo pair (a 2nd render w/camera shifted slightly to 1 side) - imagine Dali's famous work in 3 dimensions!
audre
damn! don't know qhat else to add to all the above comments. i am sitting here in disbelief... that's incredible!
