Description Wow, where to start. This was really a learning process for me since I used so many different techniques and alot of experimentation.
Trial and error was a big part of it, so I had to redo parts maybe 4 times or something. A total of 120 layers finishes it. This piece is special to me,
not because I made it with something in my mind, but because it felt like a really accomplishement, and not just another abstract piece. What I
personally like is the fact that it has a really 'painted' feel to it, which was also why I didn't knew in which section to put. I'm really uncertain
about this piece, because it's very new for me, but yet very special to me. So I want to thank everyone who took the time reading this, and if
you got anything which you might add, then please do because i want to take everything out of it that's in it. Love you guys, Mark.

Edit: YES A DD. Thanks for all the support everyone, thank you =masser & @bluespeed9

Looks more like picture man. Nicely done. I think maybe it looks like ash is flying around. Kind of Apocalyptic feeling.

extremely powerful mood. I love it. the whole thing is so mighty, and you have other things as well as the painted fell in it. It sort of stands out as just a supremely authoritarian visual. Thank you for sharing this! Your skilled. Good description too! Well reflected.

I like this abstract picture. There is a lot energy with its chaotic appearance. It almost looks like there is an explosion especially with a light source that seems to be hiding underneath. good work.

Very nice. Bears a resemblance to the fires of hell (at first glance I didnt notice WHAT was burning, so I assumed it was the hell fire). You did a great job on this. Im curious - What are your computer specks if you were able to make this 120 layer image? Do you use a tablet or a mouse? And finally - HOW BIG WAS THE PSD FILE?????

This is not the appropriate place for a comment like that. The artist has no say in them receiving the DD, so it's unfair to leave a comment like this on THEIR work. If you have issue with the quality of or number of DD's, note the admin who chose it or create a thread in the appropriate forum.

This captures so well the image of a bushfire: the dirty stains of smoke and ash, the blurring of the heat and the random patches of intensity in the flames. I know it's an abstract, but that's what I see in it. Excellent work.

supernova7 [2005-12-16 22:03:46 +0000 UTC]

layers in a render? I'm confused

lol, so did you layer a bunch of renders, or did @bluespeed9 get it wrong in the description? Either way you definitely ended up with a painting-like feel without apparently doing any painting, and anytime you can bend the appearance of a genre of art, that's really impressive. Way to go - awesome piece

X2-Glory In reply to supernova7 [2005-12-16 22:26:17 +0000 UTC]

eh, the render was 1 layer, i just put another 120 layers around it . rendering in cinema 4d, doing my thing in photoshop

supernova7 In reply to X2-Glory [2005-12-17 16:45:53 +0000 UTC]

oookay, that makes sense. Turned out real nice, man.

BTW - is cinema4d good for anything in particular, or is it just another general modeling option? I have an old copy I might experiment with if C4D has any specific advantages...

thanks. ehm, i dunno, cus i'm no pro @ 3dsm. i just know that my 3dsm skills get owned rather badly by my c4d skills which is why i use c4d. i find it just easier to use.

haha ok, gotcha. I think I'll stick with max for a while then - I'm used to its controls and such, like you with your c4d.
