My first pull is killing me. I don't know why. Can't seem to do anything with it:

Some great renders and great fun already:
MelanieL - I love the poses, so dramatic! Great cat!
Ken - Glad you are back. You were missed. I love the Indie one.
Totte - LOL, the little old ladies will take care of Johnny Purse-snatcher! Go Agnes!
KaribousBoutique - I second what Storypilot said! An awesome render - you do fit in with this crowd for sure! (not that there was any doubt.) :lol:

Title: Visiting El Dorado
Tag: hawkonthewing#1
"All right, everyone, here we are a the last stop on our tour today! Now you can watch the Priestess of El Dorado perform a ceremony of renewal! We hope you enjoyed your tour, and we thank you for joining us! Please be sure to stop by the gift shop on your way out, where you can find many souvenirs to remind you of your magical time in the lost city of gold!"
Pretty - but don't forget to post this in the entries thread too!
Sasje - love that render, nice idea too.
Luci45 - thanks for the comment, I hope you come up with something soon (I'm sure you will)
Sasje, this is just plain charming! I love it!
Unfortunately I don't get to play yet as I have somehow pissed off my computer and it's not talking to me at the moment. (Currently, it's at the shop being worked on - hopefully they'll figure out what's wrong with it. Probably they'll tell me to stop letting my cat walk on my keyboard.) So I am borrowing my husband's old computer which would have a complete meltdown if I tried to use it for 3D rendering. Oh well, at least I can enjoy everyone else's renders. :-)
Ken OBanion: Indiana Jones... Raiders of the Lost Ark would have been a whole different story with this guy involved! (I've missed your sense of humor)
Totte: Agnes... This is great! Never mess with the little old ladies!
MelanieL: Who Done It I love the cat sitting calmly in the middle of all that. And the woman on the ground - that looks downright painful!
Karibou'sBoutique: Remains of the Day Beautiful job on the render, weird and funny to see the skimpwear on the corpse. I like your style!
Sasje: Not All Creatures... Cute idea and nicely done!
Hawkonthewing: Visiting El Dorado I love the lighting effects and isn't it so true that everything's commercialized these days? :lol:
Thanks for the comment, emsim - hope your computer comes home feeling better soon!
Thanks, Melanie, I totally spaced that! Oopsie...posting now!
;-)
Lucy, I see a lost ninja climbing a stone wall in a futuristic city just to get a peek at his next victim ;)
!
Thanks, Totte, a great idea, probably would have been more fun then what I did! But I didn't see it until today. Maybe I'll use the Ninja guy again.
Flying Ninja Delivery Service
tag:luci45#1
Dr Sidereal is delighted when the Flying Ninja Delivery Service delivers the final package of his construction kit. Hopefully building a retro-SciFi gazebo will be as fun as his last project, applying faux-brick veneer to his abode.
Also used:
Air Traffic (a freebie from Stonemason)
Aircar Jumper
SciFi Crates
A Dimension Theory Skydome
LorenzoLorez
Santo for M5
Freebie package from Rendo (http://www.sharecg.com/v/32139/view/5/3D-Model/Post-Package)
Skycar
Here is my next pull:
Dream Home: Pantry, Gallery & Wet Bar
English Saddle Textures
Colors for Wild Orchid Hair
And from last time, Way of the Shinobi
Sasje, I love that one, especially the dragon and the hissing cat.
hawonthewing, another awesome one! I love your compositions and camera angles and great sense of humor!
Thank you emsim.
Just explain to the cat (in your best Obiwan Kenobi voice): "This isn't the mouse you're looking for...."
...enjoy. not about to go to go up against submissions done in apps like 3DS or C4D with my little old Daz Studio toy..
I learned my lesson the hard way.
Love the concept, but wish it was only open to Daz Studio, Carrara, Bryce and Poser instead of the Pro grade stuff. I'm not about to spend a lot of my time setting ups a scene only to have it trumped by software I will never be able to afford.
EDIT: I'll even Match you entry for entry if you do. And I swore off playing as a Sponsor.
Thanks Luci and emsim! I have a lot of fun with these, and it's nice to find a group that has a similar sense of humor.
I always feel bad coming in late with comments, but people have such great stuff, I'll try anyway!
Ken Obanion-I just love this, I actually know a couple grad students just like this. Nicely done!
Totte-LOL-FRAG, that is awesome! I love the screen effects, too.
MelanieL-The poses on this are great, and I like what you did with the shadows on that. Innocent cat is innocent.
Karibou'sBoutique-I wish I could come up with something the others haven't already said, but that shrunken head is really hysterical.
Sasje-The colors on this really are nice, and I am a sucker for charming dragons.
Luci45-I love the flying ninja delivery service idea, they ought to make a movie out of that!
My next draw: 94 Diner Food 2
75 Crow's Watch
467 Svana for Genesis
and I'll carry forward the Gemologica.
And Kyoto Kid, I hope you'll come play too. I'm really a newbie at this, so I'm not sure how much room I have to talk, but for me the whole fun of this is pushing myself to try things I normally wouldn't try, regardless of what tools I'm using. Just seeing all the creative ways people put the different elements together has taught me a lot. I just stumbled on this the last set of contests, and I thought I'd give it a try for fun. I actually found that the randomness has pushed me outside of the things I locked myself into. It might be something to think about.
...I'm just getting a bit burned out by spending a lot of time on a submission only to have it pale against someone who uses a high end application. They have their own forums, let them compete there.
Thank you everyone :)
My second one

Kyoto Kid, I do all my renders in DS4 with postwork in Photoshop. I have won a couple of these and placed in others. I think that most of the winners and placers (is that a word?) in RRRR contests use DS, Poser, Carrera or Bryce. This is one of the few contest where technical proficiency is not as important as content and "impact of the render," as Jaderail said.
And..., it did.
What is this strange fascination I have with vampires all of a sudden?
This one turned out to be a real beast! (Mostly because - hell, you know me; "nothing in moderation!") Characters were built in Poser 9, and the scene was assembled and rendered in DS 4.6, with a bit of post-work in GIMP. (Yeah, that damn alpha-channel reared up and bit me on the tuchus. Again!) And the render damn near brought DAZ Studio to its knees!

Title: "I'm Just Sayin'...."
"Look, all I'm saying is that it's just a bit..., probabilistically anomalous..., for there to be so many people here dressed as vampires."
"Dude, could you at least try not being a statistician for one frickin' evening? Lighten up, man! It's Halloween! It's a costume party! By the way, what are those things on your neck?"

M4: okay okay ........ the button on the left side at the top
It made me think of "I have reputation, reputation is not solid. Now I show you it is not only gossip, now we are solid". Cool one!
Great one, Luci! (Cutting a little close to the bone, but I like it! ;-) )

Hmm, this gives me an idea. Let's see if I can pull it off....
Thank you Melanie for the kind thought. No computer yet but I'm hoping to hear something soon.
Lol! Unfortunately, my Jedi mind tricks don't work on Scout (my cat).
I'm loving everyone's sense of humor here. I can't promise that I'll be able to keep up with commenting but I'm going to try.
Luci45#1: Flying Ninja Delivery Service - That turned out really cool! Hawkonthe wing was right - I could totally see this as a movie.
Sasje#2: Minor Maintenance... - I love the contrast between grungy garage and the bright happy little car.
Luci45#2: Danielle's Talking Horse - LOL! This is hilarious. Is that why they call them nags?
KenObanion#2: I'm Just Sayin'... - Another fun one! It may have been a pain to put together but it turned out really well.
KenObanion#3: Enticements Notwithstanding... - I wouldn't get into that coach either but nice job on the render. (I remember GH even though I didn't watch it. Seems like that was all anyone talked about at the time.)
Sasje#3: Intruders - Very cool! This looks like a scene from the type of movies that I like to watch, lol. Brutus looks like he'll use M4 as a punching bag anyway.
