Carlos Eduardo Montoya C. has entered the Master and Servant 3D.

Challenge Page (http://www.cgnetworks.com/challenge/masterandservant/view_entries.php?challenger=7136)

Latest Update: Final Image: The Phsyco and his big problem
http://www.cgnetworks.com/challenge/entries/9/7136/7136_1116477478_medium.jpg (http://www.cgnetworks.com/challenge/entries/9/7136/7136_1116477478_large.jpg)

This is the final image. I tweak it a little in photoshop and use filters for that.

Ok, the history of this, invented in less than 1 minute :)

The actual master was a nice guy..before. He was a former 3D artist and trying to prove themselve, him join the CG Networks community and enter EVERY challenge... but fail... and fail... and fail... but at least put all his effort! (mom tell him)

Then in your weak mind, start to happend bad things (schizophrenia maybe?), and imagine that some freak control cause him their failures...

So far, so well and thanks to us because we pay the all our taxes, this guy was send to a mad house, where in a attemp to get the attention inside a dark room, enjoy their live render physicologic damage to their puppet (a bad idea mom! That is not the kind of gift rigth for a crazy man!) and in your disturbed dreams represent the CG networks communtity in a standar comedy show (but, hey! at least promote the website, take a look at the poster!), so, taking control of the puppet is taking control of the price!

Pow! But the doctor say, he is slave to his own mind, so all going on circles dude...

However, a loser like this, also in your freak dreams all goes bad. So, that is the reason of the tomato going to their face: Nobody like bad jokes!

This challenge was great for me. For first time ever, I have real responses in my challenge thread! (is very sad that in my previous challenges I only get less than 200 views and have 3 pages of comments made for...me). I'm very happy to see that I have almost 2000 views!

Thanks to everybody that encourage me with your comments and good luck to the second, third and fourth places ;)

My idea is a abstract representation of a puppet with a obscure/behind system control. The "puppet" is maipulated by a master hand and not have real independence...

It would be nice if your puppet had some interaction with his world ... perhaps trying to opose master`s strings ... just a thought:thumbsup:.

ok, girls and boys, here is the master, the one who will coltrol the pupet, as you se he is a compulsive maniac, and he enjoy to have the control and torture the pupet.
this is his obsession, the control, and it makes him an slave too.
the puppet is slave from the human, and the human is slave from the need to have the control

I'm trying to decide wich of this 2 master, will be in the final escene. I don't know which to use....the funny big eyes, or the mysterious girl. Both have their concept, i aleardy put of the funny one, and the girl as all you know, the girls likes to have the control of all, and manipulate to us

The first one looks funny a lot!
when you post the master
controling the servant, your scene
will be very nice!
You can make the servant with
open airs and put down his head.
I think your servant can looks
like a marionette!
If you make it, you will got
a very nice work..
I will watch you..
cya!

Hi melkao,

I like the Jack inspired character and the mad face of the master. REally funny :bounce:

Iīm just think you could improve something in master .. like the shape of the mouth and put the end teeth inside the mouth. You could let less white the tooth too...

I like the master model, It looks like he's going to strain something.
The eyes dont quite look connected to the face though, maybe give him some lids?

Here i added an a microphone, because the púppet wil say bad, but very bad jokes, int the master and servant show.... that doesn't got sence.
thats his cruse, and the master enjoys to see the suffering of his servant, because the public is lookinge him wiht bad eyes.

Hi there melkao!
Ok, comes along with good strong atmosphere! Good efx with fog and light! Sorry if I'll double some stuff said (now I hadn't time to read all posts attentively) but will you detail master's head more? I mean his eye (oh yes, increadibly imnportant part - here should be high-end :) and are where eyes transition into head itself. Well, and now eye have too much "blood" - I think it is better to make it more uniformly scattered on eye and less dence.
Anyway, good luck with your scene - in general great work, mate!http://www.cgtalk.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

It is looking very good!

Just an observation: I couldn't figure out at first what the sphere by the puppet was. I saw there was a chain only when I saw the closeup of the character alone. Why don't you try to place the ball and the chain in such a way that they are more easily visible?

Hi Melkao,

I like very much of this lasts updates. Good work. :thumbsup:

I just donīt know about the reflexive ground ... personally I think is too much ... I prefer a rough ground ... maybe is more appropriate to the scene, but this is totally personal taste ...

The new size of the woods (I donīt know the righ name of these parts ... hehehe... Is wooden laths? that whatīs appear in google... :p) in the stage ground is really better ... :)

If you have more time, what you think to change the plane ground of the stage for separeted "woods" ?

Its more apealing if you mirror your image, so a viewer first notices this happy puppet, then naturaly moves to the right and there is a threat - his master looking back. Otherwise, viewer is confused, should he look at the puppet or at the master first, and the effect is somehow lost.

Anyways, keep it up :thumbsup: .

Oh yeah, I like the film grain version best, looks like dusty old theatre.

groovy scene man :thumbsup: almost something out of nightmare b4 christmas style.. which is very inspiring!

my only crit is the headline title for the stage area, it kinda makes your piece too literal and maybe it'll only apply for this challenge, whereas another title.. you can use it for anywhere like your portfolio.. hope I make sense.. lol, i need sleep

This is the final image. I tweak it a little in photoshop and use filters for that.

Ok, the history of this, invented in less than 1 minute :)

The actual master was a nice guy..before. He was a former 3D artist and trying to prove themselve, him join the CG Networks community and enter EVERY challenge... but fail... and fail... and fail... but at least put all his effort! (mom tell him)

Then in your weak mind, start to happend bad things (schizophrenia maybe?), and imagine that some freak control cause him their failures...

So far, so well and thanks to us because we pay the all our taxes, this guy was send to a mad house, where in a attemp to get the attention inside a dark room, enjoy their live render physicologic damage to their puppet (a bad idea mom! That is not the kind of gift rigth for a crazy man!) and in your disturbed dreams represent the CG networks communtity in a standar comedy show (but, hey! at least promote the website, take a look at the poster!), so, taking control of the puppet is taking control of the price!

Pow! But the doctor say, he is slave to his own mind, so all going on circles dude...

However, a loser like this, also in your freak dreams all goes bad. So, that is the reason of the tomato going to their face: Nobody like bad jokes!

This challenge was great for me. For first time ever, I have real responses in my challenge thread! (is very sad that in my previous challenges I only get less than 200 views and have 3 pages of comments made for...me). I'm very happy to see that I have almost 2000 views!

Thanks to everybody that encourage me with your comments and good luck to the second, third and fourth places ;)

I like what you did to the lights in the final stage. I think it improved a lot on the previous posts, giving it a little theater atmosphere. Also the glow on the letters "puppet" is a good idea imo.

The tomato helps a lot in telling the tragic story, I believe.

I just wish none of us CG talkers get psicho like the guy you describe ;)
