Although he's pedalling as hard as he can, I'm afraid he's not going to make it to the challenge. I've decided not to post this. Although it may be in the spirit of the idea of the challenge, I'm feeling that it's not in the spirit of a Bryce challenge, since although it was rendered in Bryce, it was modelled in Wings and a lot of shopping in PS. Anyway, here's the final version. Thanks for all the comments on the original, which I'll list here to avoid losing them: JustinBm - Great work here. Wouldn't it be cool if they made a bryce 6 with a wings type prog incorporated? Again, awesome image. 02/19/2005 ju8nkm9l - Nice composition. Your blurring gives the illusion of motion in all the right places. The human model actually looks 100% human! You really captured the look and feel of an old photograph! Good job! I only have one minor gripe: The "sea" looks a little too shiny to be real water. 02/20/2005 garyandcatherine - This is absolutely fabulous. It is 99.999% realistic looking, like a real photo. Absolutely stunning work. V 02/20/2005 Claymor - Wicked cool man...I love it!! I do think though that the kids mom is going to be reallllly ticked when she finds her mixer is missing and all the family bikes are torn apart! 02/20/2005 draculaz - man you got bored really fast. i wonder what else you were doing :) 02/20/2005 violet - Fantastic work....!!! 02/20/2005 pacogrande - Well done, it's something new, congratulations for your great imagination. 02/20/2005 Sophies - Fantastic creation.Excellent work!! 02/20/2005 colas - Beautifull composition.

It looks like an old Wright Brothers photo. Beautiful work. 02/21/2005 EngleWolf - Outstanding work!!! looks so real... good luck !!! :o) 02/22/2005 waldomac - First off, I love this image. I'm a sepia freak, so I like to see people do things this way. Second, the model really is fabulous. Third, I love the way it does look like an old photograph, but ... and this is strictly my opinion: It appears to me that the water is a bit too reflective. In my experience, the reflectivity of water undulating as much as your sea surface loses some of it's Bryce-esque mirror reflection, because of tons of smaller ripples within the waves and, if near shore, a modicum of sea foam, too. If you were thinking it isn't quite where you want it yet, that is one area you might think about. This is NOT meant as a negative comment, because I like the image, as is, very much. 02/24/2005 Li-An - Nice in sepia. The model is excellent. 02/25/2005 adrian3Dart - Excellent model. Great photographic effect *VOTE* 02/26/2005
