Hi all

Don't know where to start with this one.  The blobby object is indeed blobs
but it is all media! It grew out of experiments with KW cloud code. The rest
is CSG, knicked from the net or UV mapped Poser figures. The clouds are
textured boxes, alla Jaime.

i really like this one a lot.  good job mick.  so how is the blobby made
of media?  is it simply really dense?  and why did you choose media?

Nice sculptures :-)

The media technique gives it an interesting transparent and somewhat unreal
look.  Something like dirty soap bubbles...

Only the ladder seems somewhat wrong.  How about a rope ?

Definitely fanciful.  The water is made to seem very shallow because of the ladder and
the blob
thing sitting nearly on top of the water.  Intended or not?
Not sure I'd ever guess that were media or semi-transparent texturing on a surface. 
Perhaps a
thinner media would make it more ethereal then, if that were the goal anyhow.

The Media  effect was an accident, I just liked the texture so much I had to
do something with it. I like the idea of making it more etheral I'll have to
look into it.

Very nice, Mick! You have a good imagination! The water looks very
shallow, but where I live, you can walk out to sea for 2miles at low tide in
two foot high water.

NICE!! awesome texture, models everything -- It gave me a hell of a surprise
when I opened your post.. not to say that everyone else isn't doing nice
work ;-) keep it up guys!!!

May I just say that this reminds me very much of some of Gilles Trans' work
especially the one with the rhino's :-)  -- you've added your own surreal
outdoorsy look though.

VERY interesting.. the blob CSG makes for a neat shape (I gotta mess
with that sometime) and the whole image looks more like a painting than
a raytrace. Nice!

Everyone knows that controlled substances increase artistic creativity... I don'
think Mick's stuff is as potent as what 2001: A Space Odyssey came from...

Very nice!  The media effect is very interesting, as is the picture in general,
I like it quite a bit.

Once again Mick, you amaze me. The colored shadow is hard to see. I didn't see
it at first, but I started hunting for it to try to figure out exactly how the
ladder was placed on the object. The ladder seems to be approaching you from
both ends. It's reversing like something Escher would do as a prank.

How many light sources are in this? Are they in vastly different areas ofthe
sky?

Wonderfully composed dreamery image. Nice media, what happened to your own
(improved KW) clouds though?

Just two lights, one in the sky 93000000 pov units away and a low fill
in/back light in the bottom left forground. Halfway throuh the render I
realised I had forgotten to make it shadowless hence the slight shadow from
the sail and ladder.
