"the point of this challenge is to test and improve your skill as an artist. After 100 pics who wouldn’t be better. Please forgive me if this in any way excludes you from taking the challenge. The rules 1.) Make 100 pics each pic having a theme listed below. Each pic should have ONE and only ONE theme to it, for it to count. 2.) No time limit so have fun 3.) The main picture should be drawn but not limited to. for all fair purposes, people are allowed to use their paint programs and photo shop to create the pic. 3a.) pics should be of own artistic ability. You may not edit photos, or break any other rules set out in the Da etiquette

Hey anyone that actually watches my page and info right now. I've been slowly putting up some new stuff every once in a while but its been a while since my last journal entry. There isn't really anything too vitally important to put up here. I'm gonna be putting up 3 new renders here in a couple seconds once I'm done with this journal and perhaps one or two later today or this weekend. Also at some point when i get the time or just get bored enough i might be starting a youtube channel and doing some animations or just showing off some of the scenes that i made to make the stillshots you see on here.

Well if ive at least learned something from participating in this competition its that the use of HDRI images especially when using highly reflective materials definately makes everything stand out much better. It takes away the flat grey reflectance i tend to get without an environment map and helps define the contour of the model.
