That is a great site. I love the style of the illustrate. and the web design of that site also pretty cool.
I like this drawing, too.

Really nice picture...
The mood seems to me like some miyazaki mood :)

Good stuff, the bot is really cool, and you've well chosen your illustrator :)

[gege2100]

chesky Wang : thanks !

Ryu : waow ! Myazaki ... one of my gods :)


nanabaky : thanks a lot ..i m agree with photoshop blured noise ...part of my choice to flatten rhe image and make it more 2D ;)

Salut JayJAy!!!
Great pic ! j'aime vraiment bcp.
I like the design and the mood very much !!


I just think the image needs a little bit more contrast....maybe you can give it a try in photoshop and tell me what you think.....!

one last thing (pour t'embeter un peu ) , some of the objects , should look a bit more wet :arteest:

This is a very nice pic anyway !! Je verrai bien une petite histoire la dedans !

***** from me

[Franz Aber]

Cool! J'aime beaucoup ton travail!
(et merci aussi pour l'inspi, un site de plus dans mes favoris!)

[gege2100]

Franz Aber : merci ! :)

[Maximus Groff]

Its awesome!

but....

hehe.. the right lamp seems a little bit of the mood.. too much contrast on the japanese writting i think..

:buttrock: what is the idea behind this ?

[hanzo]

gege2100 inspiring!
I like the rainy seting.

[gege2100]

henzo : thx !!

Maximus Groff : thx for the comments too !! i just wanted to put some bot in a kind of non high tech action ..try to mix some mechanical and some more natural things .... and perhaps i m just reading too much japanese books ,and films at this time :)

[rolhionjs]

J'adore !

Really cool ambient feeling, and fantastic design :) :applause:

[raz-0]

I like the more 2-d ish look to it, but I think the colors need to pop more. Maybe like others said, the contrast adjustment will fix it.

only other crit I have is perhaps higher resolution so it it works better as a desktop backgorund. :)

[MROGER]

J'aime bien la compo mais peut etre tu pourrais eclairer plus l'interieur de la boutique et obscursir le mur autour.

Ca rendrait plus lisible l'ensemble, de prime abord on a du mal à distinguer les differents plans.

Apres faut voir comment ça va reagir sur le robot.
Peut etre en detourage sur le fond lumineux de l'interieur et en eclairage par la lampe du bas.

[gege2100]

ok guys here is a more contrasted version ....what do you think about it ??

raz-0 : got 100 Mo psd , ccould try to do a higher version this week end !!

Michel Roger : Merci ! Tu as peut etre raison , j ai eu pas mal de pb pour eclairer la scene avec brazil !


.::STRIKE::. : thx ...merci!!! :)

[MROGER]

Wé c'est pas evident l'eclairage pour certaines scenes.

Perso je re-decouvre a chaque image mais ça me passionne plus que ça me decourage :)

En fait j'essai de place mon eclairage dès le debut, avec une modelisation sommaire à base de primitives.
Pour des raisons de vitesse j'exclue toute GI.

Et pis ensuite je triche pas mal, quitte a eclairer un objet particulier avec son propre eclairage, different de celui du reste de la scene.

C'est là que travaille son rendu par passe ou plan par plan ça devient super efficace...
Un truc qui va pas ? Hop tu rends que la passe ou le plan qu'il faut.

J'avoue ne plus pouvoir travailler autrement le rendu.

[gege2100]

cool !merci pour le conseil !:thumbsup:

[imphead]

Awesome bit of work, especially after upping the contrast. It really gave the image a lot more zing!!

My only question is why did you pick such a lousy artist to get your inspiration from? I also heard he's a really strange guy. Apparently he has a pet minature rhinocerous, collects jellybeans as a going concern and has claimed at various public gatherings that he's king of Deleware and owns a grocery store. Plus he's lazy and never updates his website.

But again, you've done a killer job with the image. You should be quite proud in spite of your inspirations short comings!
