    "Target Practice"

    Find the eleven Perfect Potions bottles

    Birds provided by Digital Creations

    Good one dawnblade! It took me too a bit of searching, but I believe I found 11 bottles and two birds. A higher resolution image would certainly have helped. wink

    Hello everyone,

    Hopefully no one will strain their eyes counting the 11 pieces...

    The position on the board is from an actual game:  Yi Wei vs World Champion Magnus Carslen played last week in Bilbao.

    So that is what minotaurs do when not rampaging through underground mazes! I guess that kills off the repution they might have of being no brains and all brawns. Well done!

    Thanks @isidorn, and glad you found the bottles and both birds! You won't believe it but this image took 22 hours to render, with 3Delight. I think it was the .10 shading rate that brought my PC to its knees. Can't imagine what a higher res image would have done to it. laugh

    Wonderful scene @nattaruk.

    Everyone is coming up with such unique ideas to represent 11.

    Here is my image with the locations of the bottles and birds! Sorry if the items are too small.  Although I did scale some of them up, I tried to keep whatever size DS used when I moved items further away from the camera. Looks like I need a lot more practice.   wink

    ...nine... ten... eleven!!!  Yay.. I see them all... I must have wiped my glasses better this week.. LOL.  I've seen a similar art piece somewhere with bulls on it but I can't remember who created it.  Always liked it... Great lighting and shadows nattaruk ... Thanks for sharing!

    My render is at 91% but some postwork will be necessary.

    He, there is even a solutions image for the bottles! Nicely made dawnblade

    I was having troubles  finding  something I could use for 11. I didn't really wanted to use something I had already, but in this case I had too

    Not so abandoned  

     

    mouse nine is hard to see, due to the glass on the door (that was your hint) it wasn't intended to be hard to see/spot, just the lighting made it that way

    Thanks everyone for the comments about my render. Minotaurs have an undeserved bad reputation; they were framed by that Theseus rogue!

    There are some amazing renders in this thread, and it is great to be able to participate.

    Linwelly - That's a beautiful scene!

    XaatXuun - Nicely done! And with your hint it wasn't hard to find the troublesome mouse. "When the cat's away..." smiley

    ooooo great.. you all can see the cat... I worked for an hour trying to figure out what color to make it so it wouldn't blend into the background... lol.  I think for now.. cat is just dreaming... Birds are pretty fast.  If this cat is anything like my cat... it's yawning at the birds saying... "ho hum.. it's just another bird!" 

    I like how you used the DOF effect on the cat, Llola! Looking at the red bird then brings attention to the cat.

    This is so creative, @nattaruk.

    Just a note everyone.. sorry I've not been checking this thread every day... It's summer here in Ohio and that means CAMPING!!! and no computer... But I will try to catch up asap when I get home.  Off again to Punderson State Park, Ohio this weekend to see the Great Lakes Medieval Faire.  Woo hoot!!!  (and NO.. I'm NOT getting dressed up in costume.. It's gonna be 92 degrees with who knows HOW much humidity... LOL)

    Hi Llola Lane and everyone. Hope you don't mind me jumping in.   I'm new to this contest but I see familiar people from the newcomer forum:)   Thought I'd try my hand at 11 bottles astrewn over the city.  Doesn't make much sense but it was fun to create.  Army vehicles and aircraft are courtesy of my less than desirable painting skills in Gimp. lol

    Title:  " What a way to start the day!"
