snicker...how is that for a title....Thankfully the rain has hit our area from the hurricane ...very light but steady....and is supposed to do it for a couple of days hopefully....so no outside work for me...ie more zbrush time...and well here is my rainy day image....I can't get a good handle on the lighting though.... and psp7 water to finish this one up..dont guess i will ever outgrow that water... :) Was looking at Kaz's image and got inspired..

Very good modeling and texturing Ron. I like that water, regardless of if it is PSP7 or not, it is what you are comfortable with, so use it until you can find something to replace it with.
I guess you like the rain, when she passed this way she dumped 8 inches on us, neeedless to say there was some floding. :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:

I really like the sense of perspective in this, but if that thing is sinking why are they just standing there?!!

Zif Colony (snicker) My word is not catching on very fast. I think I saw DLee or Vikki use it once, too.

I wish I had PSP, cuz this water is ultrakewl. Great job on the z-bots, forever trapped in a doomed craft, since all of the human life has long since abandoned them.

Good one Ron - the idea is striking ;)

And i love that water effect - it is a utility from psp7 ?

I'd like to have that indeed - stuck with fireworks (which i came to like very much but i aint got any filters yet - too expensive :( )

I like it a lot, the little blokes are cool and the structure has a great texture.

This is a very cool image. :D

I like the lighting and the characters. As always the water is cool no matter where it comes from.

(Zifs - yep Slosh it were me. I like the term, much easier to type) Wish I could get a handle on those Zif bodies. Still eluding me though. You've done great with these Ron. :D

I like this a lot, Ron. The modelling is good, the colours work well together, and you're a master at PSP water. :tu: :tu: :tu:

what a title! sad, funny and mysterious

I like the color scheme and the mottled shadowy look -- have come back to look at it a few times
