With a subject like Surrealism, you need
more colors. But it's excellent.

Torn between 2 and 3, but I would probably go for 2 in the end.

I don't know from art, and I'm not trying to throw a wrench into things, but
I really, really like #1.  I don't know if it's surreal, and it might not
be the best one for the IRTC contest, but I think it's an impressive
picture.  It's the most effective use of the "head;" it doesn't look like a
Poser model.

Personaly, I believe that the IRTC exists to bring out peoples
individuality.   What I mean by that is, your desision should be based on
what you feel.  Not Everyone else.  And since few of us are from Africa we
may not see or feel the same things you do.

I will however put forward my Personal Opinion: 2
I give no explination.

Sincerely,
Anubis

Well, since you asked for opinions, I like #3 the best.

But I agree with Anubis... ignore my opinion and go with the one you
personally prefer.  Your own opinion is art, everyone else's is a public
opinion survey.

You may be right...  I just wanted to have different opinion regarding the
pictures and the number 2 (the one which got most votes) is the one I like
less because the head is no smooth enough...  Anyway, I need to take a
decision (very hard thing to do).

Thanks to all of you for your posts and inputs...

Hi Martin,

The sepia look is just two hollow spheres around the camera (so it is 100%
POV made) :
- one gold-gray-black agate sphere with high filtering
- one agate sphere with high transmit
(both based on the script available at
http://news.povray.org/povray.advanced-users/30298/ (big thanks again Tor
Olav Kristensen, and Slime)

About the rendering time and machine, I can't help for the moment but it is
going very fast (except for the focal blur in the first-rendering).
