    Totte #4 - a likely story! They expect anyone to believe that?! Very funny render.
    #5 - another good one - she looks very pleased with her purchase. (I see you have a large selection of military hardware in your runtime!)

    Daventaki #1 - very trippy colours! You've put me into a bit of a quandary though, I am working on my #5 and it has a somewhat similar theme (in fact even the same HDRI in the background!) I hope it will be sufficiently different to be non-derivative.
    #2 - that is superb! Great idea and a lovely render. (Well, USC is hard to beat)
    #3 - You've had a very productive weekend! (This is an addictive contest, isn't it?) Nice render.

    katfeete #1 - great idea, nicely done. (I wonder what she has been doing to enrage those monks so much?)

    barbult #2 - typical man, not a clue when it comes to gifting! I love his pose/expression.
    #3 - I always wondered what centaurs ate - now I know it's toasties!

    I'm only half way through my fifth entry because I promised my husband I'd spend a bit of time with him this weekend. I hope to have time to continue soon... but it's getting towards midnight here so I don't think I'll finish today.

    [Edit to fix several typos - my fingers are on backwards today.]

    I apologize for my absence of late; I've been moving. (It's amazing how much crap I have accumulated over the past several years!) I'm still moving the pantry and kitchen (and stuffing an astonishing number of big honkin' trash bags (always bearing in mind that I'm not the only one who uses that dumpster!); then I'll move at least a couple of the computers, so I can get back to it. In the meantime..., keep on rendering, everybody...!

    Thanks MelanieL, and I've been pulling something military in 4 out of 6 pulls, so yes, I do have a lot of military aimed things.

    And the fun keeps coming....  Wow - lots of great entries !   These caught my eye:

    Daventaki #3 - Oooppssss
    Fun render - we've all been there looking around for the cyber cop when doing something wrong.

    Totte#5 - I just had to get the perfect birthday present for my boyfriend
    I like the framing of the door, I'm a big fan of cretively framed images.  And we all know about the fetish for firearms world over, always the perfect gift for the mercenary BF.

    barbult #3 - I Had To Serve Lunch 
    Alwasy fun, Barbult.  I'm sure she's regrets missing "Dears of Our Lives."  

    Daventaki #2 - Short Cut
    Classic excuse - I have a friend who is notorious for short cuts that are always long cuts.  Good runder, and good composition for an outdoor scene - draws the eye to the theme of the image.

    barbult#2 - Too Many Choices 
    Hope you'r using instancing for all the plants !  I like the expression - defintely conveys the emotion of being overwhelmed.

    katfeete #1 - A Minor Setback
    Great render - I like the slant of the bike and the billowing cape to add movement - and good to know tea is still being served in this alternate / futuristic world!

    Daventaki #1 - Strange Land
    Yup - defintely a strange land.  The question is, what was taken before the nap in the park?  Great color palette.  Great entry!

    Totte #4 - A revelation on the road 
    A true Geico commerical.   Good to have guardian angels.  I like the DOF - guides the eye to the angel.

    aprilshowers2065#2 - Why The Paper Is Always Late
    I know people use LOL all the time, but this image did make me laugh out loud.  Great job capturing the spirit of the contest!  Fun render, and those shadows are really well done and give the image depth in addition to the funny.  Well done.

    MelanieL#4 - The Gentlemanly Thing to Do
    I really like the collision of eras here - like I mentioned to april above, captures the spirit of the contest.  Lots going on, but still the composition is tight and coherent.  Fun as always.

    MelanieL#3 - Dragon Attack
    I hate when that happens.  Makes me late all the time.  Good job on this - we like all things dragons!

    Totte#3 - I had to do my citizen duties
    Hmmm.... never saw that one on Drag Race.  Always fun, Totte, always the king of combining the disparate and absurd and making it work!

    obanion#2 - Title: Well, This Morning Commute Went Seriously South in a Hurry…!
    I like the camera angle behind the car. Good to see you jumping into the contest!

    aprilshowers2065#1 - Shortcut
    I have had many a outfit ruined be a shortcut.  Great idea.  And I like how the plants in the images begin to blend with the dress - great visual touch.

    luci45#2 - Saving Fluffy
    Wow Luci - really good.  Are you doing professional comics these days?  This is really well done and professional looking.

    MelanieL#2 - A Modern Siren
    I really like this idea - good idea for a movie.  Hmmm.  Great job on the water - what are you using for your water rendering these days?

    All around good times!  I'm working my next.

    Thanks, MalanieL, Totte, aprilshowers2065#2, bohemian3 
    Totte#3 That just shouldn't be. But things like that could to happen and we need to know about it. 
    MelanieL#3 LOL - great use of your pull!
    MelanieL#4 Your punishment for also keeping the bundle in your runtime. Great idea and well done!
    aprilshowers2065#2 Another awesome spider render. I love this one!
    Totte#4 Just wicked! I love it! (St Jack's Cathedral?)
    Daventaki#1 That's cool. Surreal. (She's going to be late for something.)
    katfeete#1 I'm glad you couldn't resist. Really nice! I love the smiling biker and the guys yelling at her. 
    barbult #2 Perfect, barbult! It isn't just guys though. I also get overwhelmed by too many choices.
    Daventaki#2 Very nice. Subtle
    barbult #3 Haha, they switch roles. I didn't get that 'til I read Totte's comment. Brilliant. 
    Totte#5 Beautiful render and darkly funny, or not, for us living in USA.
    Daventaki#3 He looks innocent enough.

    bohemian3 - thank you for your comments (what a massive post, must have taken you ages!) I'm sorry I failed to list where the water came from - it was the water plane from bitwelder's Lakeside Folly - I use that very often for water.

    Luci #4 - cats, huh?! They got lucky there. Nice render - I'm amazed that the Dubious Pub scrubbed up so well. (And thanks for your comments on mine)

  • aprilshowers2065aprilshowers2065 Posts: 738

    Thanks bohemian3 and luci45!

    @katfeete #1 Or an excellent choice of escape vehicle, depending on your view point. wink

    @barbult #2 And then there are some people who just grab the first one by the door... even if it's already dying!

    @Totte #5 She definitely looks like she thinks the side trip was worth it

    @Daventaki #3 I think he's going to have to work harder than that to convince the cop that he had nothing to do with that...

    @luci45 #4 Well, what other reason does a cat ever do anything? laugh

    Devil's Cage

    Afraid the delivery of the documents you wanted is going to be late. Using the route past the too aptly named, "Devil's Cage" turned out to be a bad idea. Accidently colliding with the giant snake demoness didn't help matters, either.

    Tropical Acacia Trees
    Jolly Boat DS
    The Cage

    How Captain Ed Lost His TV Children's Show
    Captain Ed locked himself in his dressing room for over an hour because of a wardrobe issue. 

    "You want to know why I am late? Because this is not a good idea. I will not wear this! What? No, this is not 'metrosexual.' This is not K-Pop. This is something your mother bought on sale 10 years ago."

    He wouldn't take a chair, the cart, nor even promise of our first born. He wanted two schilling, exact.

    Still haven't had chance to finish my latest, but thought I'd take a look to see what was happening here.

    vamok - "Robot Romance" is great fun, so romantic! Great robot pose.

    aprilshowers2065 #3 - eek, that seems like a very good excuse for being late! Nice render.
    #4 - briliant idea for a tricky pull. (Who would have thought they would find a good use for that reindeer irradiator?)

    luci #5 - oh, but he looks so pretty! I love the little blue and pink gremlins too.

    bohemian3 - "No Change for the Toll" is another clever idea. I love expressions on the man and the troll.

    @luci45 #5 But think about the children; kids love shiny stuff!

    @bohemian3 Maybe they can find the two schilling with the missing R. 

    @vamok Seems to be favouring the holiday theme... Good luck with that!

    There have been some fab renders since I last checked in! The day job and my second vaccine dose have kept me scrambling lately (don't get me wrong, I'm grateful to be fully vaccinated! ... but the side effects knocked me DOWN), plus there's this comic I should be doing art for, but I got another pull I couldn't resist....

    I had to completely rethink as as soon as I moved her, pose totally was ruined.
     

    Late to the table

    Liu and Suzy went to a dinner at Pedro's, but when Suzy saw you could select what flower to have on your table, it took her almost an hour to choose, and poor Pedro, politely, tried to get them to take their seats, while the prepared dinner got ruined in the kitchen. Time after time Pedro replied to the chef "They are still choosing flower".

    Late to the Pre-Invasion Marshaling Area

    Hello Earth female...no, thank you. I...I do not wish to sample your edible goo. We really need to...yes, I am sure it is delicious, however...while it is impressive that you grew the raw materials we really must...what is honey?... What are bees? Remarkable!

    Due to a navigational error, Sevenine and Twofive were undoubtedly going to be late to the pre-invasion marshaling area.

    Thanks luci45 and Totte!

    @katfeete #2 Agent Y looks so done with the whole situation

    @Daventaki #4 Dogs are very clear at getting their point across, aren't they?

    @Totte #6 Ha, wonder if Pedro is going to rethink the flower policy after this...

    @vamok #2 I've met a few market stall owners whose reaction would have been similar. Heh, nice one!

    Difference of Opinion
