I keep getting flash backs to "Dad's Army" when I look at this, it's weird. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/c/cโ€ฆ " width="18" height="15" alt="" title="Confused"/>

Looking at this piece, I avoid the obvious joke that it's a white army against a black, and look to the impression that is made by the fact one sphere stands out of place, almost annoyingly so, and yet it is because he stands out that the piece feels to have more depth than it would've had there been only perfect symmetry. It also makes the feeling of a moral coming along: those who dare to stand with one foot foward, bravely strong and true, when others may also stand only after in formation and under another's command. Sometimes it is only when one stands out for fate to notice them, does fate aid them in achieving epic destiny.

In conclusion: Although basic and simple, the piece does make an impression with the way it mysteriously draws attention, and it's only after one analyses the damn thing that they uncover the mystery and learn to appreciate the piece for what it truly is. Bravo! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/c/cโ€ฆ " width="20" height="20" alt="" title="Clap"/>

Incredible. How did you do the lighting? Was it an HDR, or just a bunch of lights? Cause I honestly can't tell...
Amazing DOF! (which I also wonder how you did as well...)
I can't stop looking at it.

Zortje In reply to John-Boyer [2011-06-25 19:33:11 +0000 UTC]

I used a HDR map and several lights, the DOF is Vray using a default 3dsm camera
Iยดm glad you like it, and thanks for the comment

Again, I apologize for taking so long to get to it. I was a little too distracted from my critiques.
