Description


Every Friday evening from September through November activity ceases in small towns all across America as families, friends and neighbors fill the stands at the local high-school football field to watch as their young gladiators do battle with the team from the next town down the highway. Winning teams are revered as saints and stories of noble feats in epic games are told and re-told for generations. In West Texas, where I was born and raised, horizons can seem to stretch forever and small towns can be recognized from a great distance just by the lights from their football field and their water tower, which are usually the tallest things on the landscape. On Saturday mornings, there's usually a lot of trash to be picked up, but that's a totally different picture, and I would have to go download all of ernyoka's stuff. ;o) Assorted free stuff from baument, 3D Cafe, and Carrarra content cd, I believe. Some modelling in Bryce. Grass is composed of spiky terrains at global resolution close to the camera and decreasing in resolution toward the distance. Only post was some work on the grass at the bottom of the image and adding the wires... and the name, of course. This image was part of a 3-way tie for second place in the Bryce Forum October Challenge. Many thanks to everyone.

Well you captured the feel of small towns accross the country. Your use of light and color is right on helping to add to the realism and overall feel. Great texturing and composition.

100% awsome. Beautiful work, every last detail of it. There is nothing I can say to do this image justice.

I love everything in the picture, but I must add that my favorite feature in the piece is the pad around the field goal posts. That is amazing with the wrinkled detail on it. The football is awesome too. Overall a wonderful job. I just wish I knew about Renderosity in October, I would have voted for it too!

i'm not a football fan of any sorts, but this image is absolutely amazing. the more i look at it the more details i see. the litte bumps on the football, the creases on the protective cushioning around the pole, the sagging electicity lines, it's all amazing. the scenery and positioning of the camera are also great. i hope you won this competition, because you sure deserved to
