    I like it, mori_mann!

    One of the best things I learn here in this monthly competition and throughout the galleries and forums is thinking outside the box. I'm much more analytical than creative, so I really have to push myself to come up with ideas for scenes. So when I say something like "very creative" it isn't just a trite expression. Many of you have such a gift in expressing yourselves through art that it just blows me away in what you create. You all inspire me. smiley

    I would have never thought that I could inspire someone with my art, thanks so much for the inspiring words.

    I am a rather analytical person as well so creativity isn't just there most of the times. What helps is to let sillyness take over. Try the RRRR contest, you get to randomly seletct stuff from your runtime and create a scene from that ( you can sue additional stuff but those need to be in) its a great way to "learn " creativity because it gives the brain a stop to making the decisions and just work with what is there. Lots of my renders start out with looking through new (and old unused) stuff in my runtime and either something catches me and I start adding stuff or I move on to the next.

    So very true, @Kismet2012.

    @SaphireWild, gorgeous render, and very creative. The lighting looks great - and I love the slight difference in angle of the painting.

    Wonderful ideas from both of you  MoriMann and Saphirewild!

    Good to know! I'll check out the RRRR contest, thanks! So true about silliness; that's why some of my renders for these challenges are on the goofy side. cheeky

    Very nice render Saphirewild. I like the background mountains and sky, nice but not overpowering.

    Clever @Saphirewild.

     

    Everyone has done a great job "framing" their characters this month.

    "Balancing Act"

    ooo Great way to frame an ogre ;)  Thanks for sharing Dawnblade!

  • Llola LaneLlola Lane Posts: 9,345

    What's This?

    Peek a boooooo!!!  glub.. glub... lol

    Great frame idea Kismet!  Thanks for sharing.

  • Llola LaneLlola Lane Posts: 9,345

    Do It That Way!

    My two granddaughters are one of my favorite sources of inspiration. For Christmas, I used FaceGen to create fantasy portraits of each of them, and create a new face morph for each of them every few weeks to capture the changes as they grow up. This time, I used the Genesis 3 mesh, and used morph dials to shape a complete form for each of them. This one captures them in their favorite mode - arguing with each other over how to build something with Legos.

    Glad you could join us this month  chameleonsdream.... Lots of frames in your artwork... Well done... Thanks for sharing. :)

    Nice new additions! Seems like people have Djinn-fever all over the place ;)

    ***

    Experimenting with stuff. Not sure how happy I am with this, but hey, it's the idea that counts!

    Dimi, framed by some walls, gates and lights. Oh, judging by his grin, he may haveset up some.. prank here or there, too. Perhaps he.. framed some competitor thief or unsuspecting guard something ;)

    (PNG, because the JPEG was horrible when uploaded)

     

    Great 'idea' mori_mann... I think I'll stay in doors... away from the pranks ;)   lol.  thanks for sharing!
