Come on, it's always a pleasure to see your works.

Well, I actually spent the first half of November trying to choose among a wide
variety of ideas. Once I got the right one, I couldn't start working on it due to a
hatred exam (economy). Having passed the exam, I started to actually work on the
project, but the time the study left to me was barely sufficient to make something
decent :( so I gave up in the middle of December.

I have to learn how to improve my productivity, which this year has been *really* low
(one? two finished works?).

Yeah, I absolutely understand you.

It's my hope too.

*Low productivity*?!...

time...

Had an idea but lost inspiration part way through. Ended up doing an image
for a renderosity comp instead. (http://www.renderosity.com/)

What is UP with that sight and photos of women?  And renders of
women?  I can't find any decent CGI very easily on that sight but
plenty of wmen staring into the camera.

I finally decided to enter, and begun to work on the image... today !!!
Final rendering is in progress, now.  Nothing fancy or complex, but it
should be nice enough, I think.

Fabien.

Don't know. I frequent the Rhino and Vue forums and there's good art in
those.

I did. Sort of... Nothing fancy at all, but I thought it would be a good
joke, so I couldn'r resist.

This is part of a resolution to enter as many rounds as possible. Sep/Oct
was my first, and so far I haven't failed to enter yet. I hope this gives me
a chance to improve my POVing skills.

As for the poor previous round, I believe it was a combination of the theme
with the terrorist attacks on the USA. A combination that took most of the
interest people might have for warfare.

I have to agree. I sort of worked on an image, for that round, but my heart
wasn't in it.
