demo38 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Very nice. I like the color and the lighting, good use of props / placement. Maybe a little too much post process for me (edge definition on some elements), but a great image IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fabmedia Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 There is NO 3D in the picture. It's a matte painting for personal use and everypart of the image was augmented or painted including all alpha channels created were done by hand (some 2 days), and all highlights in the image were hand painted. It's my first try at matte painting and it started with a photo of the house found on istockphoto.com and does not have any wireframes. Although the next matte painting will contain 3D, this one does not. Good ol' painting in Photoshop. It's 2500 x 1750 and is going to be printed on a postcard (4"x6" at 300 dpi) and used in an HTML email. It took the better part of a week to do (off and on). I'm very glad it's been well received. I didn't know if it would fair well here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taprice Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I think it's fabulous, great work the lighting is really nice. I would be curious what it would be like with a no trespassing sign instead of the fence one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabmedia Posted November 11, 2005 Author Share Posted November 11, 2005 Thank you everyone for your great feedback. I've been sidetracked and forgot to check in. I've been approached about creating a DVD on how to create this image, so I'm looking at getting ramped up for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thieverycorp Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I'd just take off that sign right in the foreground. The eye goes straight to it. ...Or maybe replace it with something of REAL menace? Otherwise, a most cool and atmospheric pic. "BEWARE OF WATCH DOG"?????

David Knourek Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Great job, I like it alot. And I actually like the sign, has a sinister/funny edge to it -dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
