Any crit

hey Poju, very nice work so far. and what a nice hobby, I wouldn’t mind being there in the pic :cool:

I have a couple of suggestions, I made a repaint of your pic in PS to show you.
click image for larger view

it’s mainly some DOF(gaussian in PS) to the sky and sea, to put you and your ‘fishTools’ in focus. as that’s the main importance in the scene, at least for me.
also sharpened up your face a little to add to that effect.

I also added a slightly blue tint to the image(in PS, colorBalance, midtones: -40, -20, +50) to make it a little calmer and more relaxing. as that’s seams to be one of your hobby to :wink:

ofcourse nothing you have to do if you don’t wan’t to, just ideas. good work so far,
take care

Thanks for comments my friends!

Fellah: Thanks for cool ideas. This update is for you, well plugins wont work in current wersion of Blender and it take some twaeking to open it in older one, but i made it for you and for DOF, i allso made my lights little cooler. Hope you like. And thanks for changing your avatar back, that Totitch parody war aful, i liked your pirate parrot most tough

Virtuoso: Have you somekind obsession about that jumping fish:) , just kidding. I might just do that if i have time and you stole my idea about that little fish in bucket. What comes to those labels for bottles, well since textures are forbitten, i think that it’s not worth it to model them:D

I’m not sure if this is step foward, should i change lights back? And those new eyes(for some odd reason i had to make them) are too “sharp” and takes some charisma away i think. Well i keep tweaking and you keep that crit coming so we can make smethin out of this mess, ok?

Woah, I really like the mood of this, congrats.

Again, very nice! :thumbsup:

#60

Wow… this scene looks really terrific. Great lighting! :beer:

(s)

#61

really great! I tried to find something else to crit, but couldn’t. just add some small things like the fish in the bucket etc… and I think it will be even better.
hope you’ll get around to texture it a little after the challenge to, I think textures in this lighting will make it just perfect.

>>>“And thanks for changing your avatar back, that Totitch parody war aful”
ahahaha! np… :smiley:

#62

Thanks you all.

I made few little changes and added fishing line and lil fish. Fish seems little odd, but i’m working on it. I’m not sure about DOF, ill give it a try when i work out everything else, it’s pain in tha butt to tweak and render in my crappy pc(Celeron 566@850), but i’m getting there.

Need comments about DOF or not DOF?
Well anything else what comes in mind is welcome too

#63

Ha, cool fish.

About DOF, I don’t think it’s that important if you have it if its gonna be a hassle.

#64

defintely getting better and better. i really like the new lighting and the stars.
dof would be okay but be carefull not to eliminate the stars cause without them itll be rather plain. and what about the moon? the grey circle shadow on it rather strange, i dunno its just me.

#65

excellent, that is a much better render. DOF sure! :rolleyes: put some it will make the picture better?

great work :beer:

#66

Thanks for all.

Little hurry now, but here is couple of renders

Some crappy bumbs

Later in that evening

See ya

#67

ja seuraava aamulla… krapula…
Very nice! I like the sweat shirt’s texture.
Muutama saaria in the background vois olla hyvä. Keep it up :beer:

#68

LOL! too funny!

#69

Thank for everyone

Here is that final again:

-Click for final-

#70

glad to know youve finished it GOOD:thumbsup: (on contrary i cant finish my animation entry hik…hik…but hopefully i can do good next challenge!)

the fishing pic is cool, nice DOF and the stars make that scene more alive. i like the drunken santa as well:p (maybe next time you can do your toon as jackie chen’s drunken master?) and that 3 Pojus in the lower, their eyes always looking to the camera thats scary LOL

goodluck you definetly have a chance to grab XL8 :applause:

#71

Thanks everyone this have been pleasure

#72

Unless I missed it somewhere, is there any chance of getting this in a AVI file showing this in an animation?

#73

Really a beautiful and poetic job Poju. :wink:

Good job :beer:

#74

Really cool toon style, Poju! Posing looks very natural. I remember your Louhi-project and it’s nice to see you are still using Blender.

(sorry, in finnish)
Laiskan näköinen äijä. :slight_smile: Jatka samaan malliin, hyvältä näyttää. Mun on tarkoitus alkoittaa Blenderin harjoittelu alkuvuodesta kunnolla, tähän asti ollut vain satunnaista kikkailua. Tilasin ton kirjankin (Blender 2.3 Guide) itelleni joululahjaksi. Katotaan miten äijän käy… mut sun tasolle en kyl ihan hetkeen yllä. :slight_smile: Jos koskaan. Hyvää joulua sinne!
