Title: Rainbow
Painting by: chickin

Notes by the Artist: I borrowed this idea from =lukeroberts and his photo Rainbow Vortex. [link]

Modeled and Rendered in Lightwave.

What I Like About It: This 3D rendering by chickin on Deviant Art makes great use of colors and reflection to create a dynamic and interesting image. It may not be the most realistic rendering, but sometimes, realism is not the affect you want in an image. My favorite part of this image has to be the reflection in the metallic ball. Not only can you see the reflection of the rainbow bands, but you can also see the reflection of the sky and mountains. Some other things that make this an interesting image are the position of the ball and the contrast the round ball against the straight lines of the rainbow bands.

What I Like About It: In honor of the 9th day of the 9th month of the year 2009, I present to you a fitting picture of the day: the 9 movie poster. It's hard to say what this film is about, but it looks like it could be a very good film. Dare I say a 9/10. Anyways, this poster only helps to pique my interest in the movie. Why are voodoo doll like creatures fighting robots and why do they have numbers on their backs and what's so special about the number 9? This poster helps to create more interest for the film and tells a story by itself. Hopefully I will see it soon.

Title: SNAIL ANATOMY
3D Model by: Ken Liang (funnydoodle)

Notes from the Artist: This one is made for a print/poster job. Modeled in XSI, textures done in Photoshop. Several passes were rendered separately and composited in digital fusion. Hope you all like it!

What I Like About It: This is an incredible 3D rendering of a snail by funnydoodle of Deviant Art. The mount of detail put into this piece is truly exceptional. It's as if he actually took a snail and cut it in half while preserving tall the organs and internal parts. I'm not sure how accurate this is, but either way, it feels like this snail was a living breathing thing. The texturing on this model is also very good. I'm not sure if you could have made this rendering any more realisitic.
