[Perspective]

Awesome! Looks like a 3D render.

Is this U-Balt?

radiodark responds:

MICA, but we're right up the street from University of Baltimore.

Sine you were going for realistic...

I can't give you too many points after you've stated your intention. However, the model itself is quite nice. There isn't a whole lot of detail in this, but there doesn't need to be. You did what there was to be done correctly.

This is lacking the proper materials and lighting, but I'm sure you know that because your robots are more than ten times better.

hehe.. thanks :P

this was my first render with Vray and i know the lighting suck..

it was for a 2 step chalange... step1 > build a desk step2 > fill it with "items"

I like it

You are right to want to correct the proportions a little bit. My other advice would be to not use white to highlight the pot. The more porous the material is, the darker the highlight should be. So if the pot is plastic make the highlight brighter. If the pot is ceramic make the highlight lighter than the base color, but not by much.

Also, you should shade your cacti a little bit and use a light gray for the needles. The flower looks amazing.

RandomExploit responds:

Thanks for the helpful tips!

Edit : I also put them into the cactus.

Good attention to detail

You really managed to pull off the design nicely at such a small scale. I remember reading a review by MindChamber on one pixel art submission that suggested the artist blow up the picture so we can see the pixels and then leave the original version up in the corner.

Again, very nice detail.

Lizardman974 responds:

I see where you're going with this. You're saying to show a bigger version of this with the current version in the corner. I like the idea and I'll be sure to do it soon!

Edit: It won't let me upload it without it becoming so small you can't see the original. I'll just upload the big version separately.

Love it

Your bots are awesome! They have a ton of detail without being too overwhelming and maintain their simplicity. Your global lighting is good to. What program are you using?
