Render Contest II

for the cartoon render one.. cna me make up a cartoony scene..?or must it be based on a CG Movie?

Very nice Wing!

heres a start to mine... its a cartoon scene based on the anime Initial D.. it will be cell shaded at the end..
its a car drifting around a corner down a mountain side.. the car is a Hachi Roku AE86(86 Toyota corola) theres goign to be some foilage ont he side, and a mountain.. maybe an ocean below.. depending on the camera angle i choose...and it will be night time i think...

question... can i take the final image into photoshop and add some thigns (like dust.. and "effects") or must it all be rendered right form 3d app.?

Ok... I have good news and bad news (the bad one for myself)
the good news is I'll join in the spooky render thingy. bad thing...... I'll have to use 3dsmax instead of maya (which im am used to) because they are using 3dsmax on my new school. So the results might not be as good as before Oh well! I'll try. (I asked a copy of 3dsmax at school )

-Jeroen

Scary manakin with some red stains. Probably find this in a haunted house. Modelled and rendered in max 4.2

scary..
It's not fun to read this and see that a 12:43 am :P(that's the time here now ^^)

but very cool models with you all!

I really like your model and the lighting. I wonder if I could do something like this someday.

i digged up this:


maybe i'll find the time for something new

That's cool, ello! First i thought that u posted photo.. then i looked more carefully the eyes

I want to see more!

thanks:)

although it sounds a lil ironic (a photo looks much different i think) i have some more on my website in the gallery section . theres the fish from different angles and distortions but i didnt want to post all tof them here

aight, gonna check it soon

here i have a little animation for the cartoon part, nothing special, an hour modelling and another for rendering it(just pictures, because the video is 80mb^^):

He is so cute!

i tried zbrush today, thats a real great tool but also heavy stuff from how it works if you are not used to it:)

dont know what category to enter with this?

Anything Scary goes in the spooky category.

@ ello o.o
thats awesome @.@

@ chb2 he is really adorable ^^

Ohh saw this topic now , i have some Renders that i did Months ago . Here are Some.

Im pressive Shinobi!

I know that bike game: Armagetron ^^ Looks awesome!

Thx for the Comments .
The Bikes are From the Movie Tron , here some more Render shots i did a while back.

this is a Low Poly Ninja 2600 Polys if i am right.


Here the same Model in High Poly

Hi!
I know some of you get frustrated with current internet technologies in downloading tons of big pictures on the Render Contest II page so I have provided thumbnails (thanks to Josh Arldt for the server space). I hope you all enjoy the pictures and please tell me which ones are the best! (click on the link left of the picture to go to the high-resolution version). You may be wondering why my games are not that good, well, the reason is because I spend a lot more time animating these types of scenes that would be way too much MB for most people to download. I may make a DVD of them someday though.

@SHINOBI: your ninja is REALLY cool!

Thank you RJDL , i started a Movie with him for a MOD , but droped that half the way.

Some more shots :

Tron forever !!!

new one:

freaky:)

lol, ello tells ME, that MY work is freaky

Wing, your pic blonde is faked. You ripped the girl Tina from DOA wallpaper.

I created everything in that picture except the girl's face, which I did edit anyways. And I got her face from an anime site. Now I searched for DOA & Tina and you must be talking about "Tina Armstrong?" You can see from that game that her face looks different, if this is who you're talking about:
compared to:???????????
?????
Please show the picture that I "ripped" and "faked."

hmmm i dont think its her..the nose seems different...

I did some research, and after finding this I have to side with Ex citer.

compared to

That's the one I made Towelie and where did you find this? I'm sure they copied it from me actually! But I really don't care about your opinions Towelie and Ex_Citer, its the truth that matters! I rendered that water from a 3d animation program, and drew all the clouds, body and wings freehand with a soft brush and edited the face from an anime picture.

Ok first off, I'm comparing yours to DOA's... and secondly, they copied it from you?!? DOA has been around for YEARS now, so I'm pretty sure they didnt copy it from you...

Just wanna let you guys know , before some says that one of my Tron Picture is stolen from the Original . I took one Pic from the Original Movie and tryed to make the same in 3D .

Here is the Original


And her the remade one by me .



I love Tron too , the movie is one of the best ever.

Truthfully, some of your aspects looks better than the original, say the refeltive-ness on the grey parts of the... things (I have never seen nor heard of tron) I'd suggest adding a blur effect on the rear... thing and all, make it look pimped out great job

Thx

Tron the Movie is a must watch Movie

I didnt blur it couse the rear one is not that far away.

Well it suppost to blur. Now you can't see it's moving.
still the rest is better

EDIT
Also: Shadows are to bright and could use blur aswell


-Jeroen

Towelie, that's totally lame! Didn't you understnd what I said: "I MADE THAT PICTURE, I DID NOT COPY IT!" You are just plain wrong and you can't accept it! Where's all your awesome renders anyway, mr. "I know big companies and you don't"????!!!

Lol not the whole big breasted blonde woman, the face was ripped... And now, I just merged the two pictures (took the face from Tina and gave it a 67% opacity over WING's angel's face) and heres what I came up with.



Same look, same hair sway, the Angel's face is a bit paler but WING stated he edited it a bit... come now, I cant believe more people havnt noticed it.

Thanks Pappenheimer, your game is about 10 times better than what I've seen from Towelie and Ex_Citer put together by the way!

Towelie:Why would you say you found that picture on a DOA site and then if you right click on it, its linked from the exact same picture on the server I uploaded to on your other post? Does "Dead or Alive" use voicesoffaith.com as their server too? I don't think so. You (and Ex_Citer) sure are quick at criticizing and finding flaws in other people's work too. What about your own? I wouldn't care if you go make websites for your little internet police squad because I don't steal other people's work. I can model and make faces easily anyway! You think that little face would be difficult?! The face actually makes up 0.7% of the picture by the way (60x40 pixels/325000 pixels) and it has hardly any shading in it. And out of all the renders I've contributed just in this Render Contest II thread, I would say that is irrelevant (probably .00007 % or something). LOL haha. Do you like trying to condemn people or something? I'd like to see you start from scratch, and come up with something that's good quality. Everyone takes something from someone, you're using conitec's work to make 3DGS games right, hopefully you don't get arrested you for that one. This is just a forum you might want to remember, I'm not selling these commcercially and even if I took more than 2500 pixels from them, and posted all their wallpaper on this forum, they probably wouldn't care because I'm not selling them. If you expect everyone else to reinvent the wheel, why don't you expect yourselves to? And that suicidal description is the most horrific signature I've seen in my life, and games where apes rape women Ex_Citer? Ummmmm.....anyway

I don't wanna argue so I'm just posting my renders and they'll speak for themselves.

Level, textures, and render by me, boat by NuclearWinter - and game concept by both of us.

Ok first off, I make levels as a voulunteer meaning I 1) dont model thus dont render and 2)I have never completed a game THUS dont say others is better than mine from what you have seen becayse you have seen NONE of my work in action. I am done arguing with you, if stealing other's work flots your boat, fine by me. I am done.

So lets just get back on topic like others have been trying to do and stop arguing about a stolen face.

I modelled this 3d face in a couple hours for practice. I also reduced the polygons on the face since I'm going to export it to 3DGS.

Credit to Dell for the computer used, to Microsoft for Windows (and Directx) software to run programs, credit to Rite-Aid for the computer mouse, credit to Safeway for food to eat to keep me alive during this creation time, credit to Conitec for letting me put it on the forum, credit to God for life, credit to whoever invented 3 dimensional axes so I could put the spline points for the loft NURBs, credit to light energy and molecules for acting like they do, etc., etc.....;)

I just wanted to mention that the face of one of wings pictures was ripped from a famous video game called Dead or Alive 2 of a girl called Tina Armstrong. It´s really sad that some people here don´t know the famous games of the video game industry.
I think I am a fair person. And if that would be my contest I wouldn´t disqualify you - WING - for that even if in the rules is written not to copy each other work (I think copiing from famous 3D games with fantastic graphics is even more worse).

But that is too much: "Thanks Pappenheimer, your game is about 10 times better than what I've seen from Towelie and Ex_Citer put together by the way!" How old are you? I thought you were more intelligent.

And now I don´t mind to add your other nonsense:
"That's the one I made Towelie and where did you find this? I'm sure they copied it from me actually! But I really don't care about your opinions Towelie and Ex_Citer, its the truth that matters! I rendered that water from a 3d animation program, and drew all the clouds, body and wings freehand with a soft brush and edited the face from an anime picture. " <<<you actually agree that you ripped that picture from somewhere else, but you lament that it isn´t Tina Armstrong and you treat Towelie and me like trash even if we know it actually better as you, and that´s a fact. May you think YOU are GOD?

"Towelie, that's totally lame! Didn't you understnd what I said: "I MADE THAT PICTURE, I DID NOT COPY IT!" You are just plain wrong and you can't accept it! Where's all your awesome renders anyway, mr. "I know big companies and you don't"????!!!" <<< you said before you ripped it from a anime pic. Are you crazy? We know the company which has the license for that character.

"Towelie:Why would you say you found that picture on a DOA site and then if you right click on it, its linked from the exact same picture on the server I uploaded to on your other post? Does "Dead or Alive" use voicesoffaith.com as their server too? I don't think so. You (and Ex_Citer) sure are quick at criticizing and finding flaws in other people's work too. What about your own? I wouldn't care if you go make websites for your little internet police squad because I don't steal other people's work. I can model and make faces easily anyway! You think that little face would be difficult?! The face actually makes up 0.7% of the picture by the way (60x40 pixels/325000 pixels) and it has hardly any shading in it.

And that suicidal description is the most horrific signature I've seen in my life, and games where apes rape women Ex_Citer? Ummmmm.....anyway" <<< Brain! Use your brain! All these replies and critics on my games you did because I posted that: "Wing, your pic blonde is faked. You ripped the girl Tina from DOA wallpaper." I thought it´s important because it is a render contest and not a copy from other great 3D games contest.

Wing, I realy hope now you get disqualified in that contest because you are realy an unfair person to everyone who joined that contest and espacially to Towelie and me.

Here the picture you have ripped. (just the face???)

The girl is the most important thing on your picture because the picture is called BLONDE! She is centered and dominating the picture.

HI what do you think of this?
TheGameMaker [image]http://www67.gmx.net/de/cgi/thumbnail?CUSTOMERNO=28817335&t=de81279361.1126028416.f623675a&jobid=&nobg=1&folder=%2FMeine+Dokumente%2F&file=incoming%2Ejpg&size=999x668[/image]

http://www67.gmx.net/de/cgi/thumbnail?CU...mp;size=999x668

From proof I have seen on this post and has been shown . I will have to disqualify you Wing. No hard feelings but the pictures are to much alike to be original. I have been to busy to read this thread till now so now I will make my choice on the evidence provided.

Thank you all who has entered!..... Hope to see more.


Light_Mystic.

wow! now that's scary ^^

great job TheGameMaker!

Well sorry to damage your "good profile" on here light_mystic, and since I "copied" this picture:
here:
I accept my disqualification, after all, this whole picture IS 3.5% of what I've posted here (328358 pixels /9256867 pixels)! And by the way I don't care about my reputation and especially not about your money! And if you happen to think I just copied the face, that's .02% of what I've posted! hahahah hahahaha! Life is soooo AWESOME!! I love being alive!

Whoo that looks really cool thegamemaker!
Very scary and somewhat funny at the same time.

Some more of my work .

Whoa looks real Shinobi . When I get my Range Rover built, I'll do a high poly render and display it here, hopefully .

Thank you Toz .

I have been saving all of these in seperate folders with your names. So when the time comes I will upload them to a place so everyone can vote on which one is the best. Which will make it fair since it will be that Majority rules.

I think it's only fair that each participant select just one entry as their best one. Not to mention the fact that if somebody has two dozen entries it will get cluttered, and the voters will have to sort through them all.

Haha no continue posting - I just think when we're ready for the actual judging we should each pick our best one out

But what category does most entries fall under? I mean, is a lasersword fantasy or something?

"I cannot play such Christ stuff[wing gamepak thread]" "Heaven/angels are bizarre and depressing [wing gamepak thread]"
"could it be that you [WING] think you are God?[in the render contest ii thread]" -Ex_Citer

The fact is that if God really judged according to the laws you put on other people (Matt.7:1-2), YOU or light_mystic(not just some of your work or actions) would be disqualified if .02% of your actions are evil (also I'm just a small part of your lives, you would also have to be applying the same laws to everyone you know). Good thing God's not on anyone's team and judges absolutely perfectly!
I don't think I'm God, I worship God which is the exact opposite.
your pornographic games are probably as popular as "first person shooters" and Jesus says "popular stuff is an abomination in God's eyes" but maybe I better not quote the Bible since you openly reject the Son of God anyway.

Amen!

wow, thats a really COOL lightsaber!
how'd you create it?

RJDL

I made a Tutorial of it , it can be downloaded at www.3d-palyce.com , under free tutorials and then 3ds Max. There you will find that Lightsaber tut i made.

Cris (3d-palace owner) named me Zipman as the Author , i mailt him once to change that but he maybe forgot that.

An early wip of my scary scene



yes, there is blood and there will be dead bodys, too. But you won't see the whole bodies... only parts of them (NO they won't be ripped into pieces )

LOL

@ Bho_Havock looks good so far..
here is a update of my pic...
Now c.a.2000 monstres, everyone with 20.000 polys. try to render tihs in GS!!!

alright here's an updated version



still have to add some more signs of a fight, get a better texture for the pillar and finally render the whole scene with hdr

@TheGamemaker: i don't know why, but somehow i liked the other version of your picture more than this one. But maybe it's just me
oh and btw the nick is BoH_Havoc and not Bho_Havock, but that's not that important

holy **** Boh_Havoc, I want to see more 'o those

Ok sorry.... try to remember your nick in futur....
TheGameMaker

aaaaaand.... finished

hope you like it



and ,just for fun, an other perspective:



@TheGameMaker: lol, you don't have to apologize ^^

[edit] forgot to mention: I used Cinema 4D for the 3D part and added the "camera-layer" in Fireworks MX

nice scene, specially thos red dot eyes:) now port it over into 3dgs

o.O I'm tramatized for life from that scene...

I finaly got my render finished.
It's not the best pic around here because it is my first render I made .
It's fantasy style, here it is:



All made with MAX, textures made in Photoshop by myself, and one texture from noctua-graphics.de (the wings of the dragons).

TITLE: Time of dragons has begun

Gee, what is it quiet here!
Don't be affraid to tell me that my pic sux.
I don't mind critics , coz I learn from that.

Well for a little C&C it does not suck and for a first render.... it is not bad at all....I don't think anyone should call anyones work sucky. And yes I did notice it did quiet.... Anyone up for more renders? C'mon now we got to have some talent here....

Good Job on the Render Jostie And Thank you for staying at least on the Theme.

Have a Good one Everyone.

Light_Mystic.

Im working no a resident evil style mansion. I have to say its comign along quite good... Wish I had more time.

McLaren

It has been bit quiet in here. Though all renderings are awesome

( though Jostie: The dragon is bit too solid color :/ )

Awesome work everybody! (Almost) I'm sorry to say I cannot participate (Lifes too busy and I have **** software and no money[poor grammer I know]), but if anybody takes my idea I'll kill them. :| <--That's a straight face. I definatly render my idea for fun in the future. I'm still a newb at modeling and everything else. Good luck to all!! <--That's happy face. A rarity in my lfe (Just kidding).

My latest i was bored

yeah, i saw this film

Hi heres a new one by myselfe!
enjoy!

And this one for "Augenkrebs".
Its a litle bit abstract

TheGameMaker

looking good
Add a little more detail to the cannon and a nice texture and it'll kick ass

Did you also create the "eyecancer"-thingy in Cinema 4D? If so, would be cool if you could tell me how you archived this effect (some tips and hints would be enough, i don't wan't/need a tutorial ) (I really like that picture!)

@light_mystic: Is one allowed to participate in more than one category? If so, I think I'll try the CG thing

ooooooops i´ve forgoten that there are categorys!!!!
Sorry!!!!
Sorry!!!!
Sorry!!!!
Sorry!!!!
Sorry!!!!
Sorry!!!!
Sorry!!!!
Sorry!!!!
Sorry!!!!
The "eye cather" was don in Max like everything else.
I´ve used Meta particles with Toon shaders and Postwork in Photoshop!
TheGameMaker

two new, also downloadable at my website.

Well done!

looks cool!

a dragon, as you can easily figure - untextured;)

beautiful!

dragon? I think you created another nice bug - a dragon bug

thanks:)

my 3 year old daughter told me "thats no dragon, a dragon dont has those antennas"
well, i told that there are various dragons, but well, i can at least say "it was my intention to create a friendly dragon":)

My latest meet wonderbot from robots

Hey that looks pretty nice Spawny!

I guess I'll post my latest also...



A remake of my old work...

very nice!

Hi !

I have an experimental picture here:

hey lol i know your pic don´t know where... i think renderosity am i right?

hmm may i post Digital Airbrush???
if not: tell me....

MfG

@ TheGameMaker: no this pic can you see at 3D-Ring too :-)

Your Digital Airbrush look good. How long does it take ?

Bye the way.....thanks Ello !

This is a rendering from the intro of 'The Unbeatable'.
--------------
Das ist ein Rendering aus dem Intro des neuen Game 'The Unbeatable', basiert auf dem alten evtl kennts noch einer Roll-It.

http://bombzone.bo.funpic.de/wallpaper1.jpg

yes ok maybe ive seen it in 3d-ring, my painting ist there too.
It takes me 5-7 hours... and i used the Freeware Artrage, a real amazing programm,
If u like it try it here...

Blitzblaster1

okeli, some new from me. i installed cinema again while waiting for my computer exchange:

Interesting view in the first picture...

WOW! i really like that first picture. really beautiful!

I will post the voting poll in two weeks..... just have been pretty busy with stuff away from the computer and won't have the time. But please stay tuned and the bidding will start soon! One more thing anyone got paypal? That is how the payment will be sent.

Thank you for your time.

Paul.

@ello: how can you make this stuff? it's awful no, I don't mean the quality, I mean the theme of yers. Good luck and hoping to see more of yers! (and anyone eles too)

cool work ello!

A-W-E-S-O-M-E work Ello!

ever wondered, how it looks, if you are ill and standing in your vein?

Hmmm...he needs some blood clot surgery! And fast. Nice work.

My dad stinkin wiped his HDD, so the render I spent 8+ hours on was gone. I keep forgetting to back up everything on like 7 computers. (and a few USB sticks, some floppys, and a removeable HDD)

McLaren

Hi together...
heres a new one by myself....
enjoy

wow. thats a cool Space Ship.
nice Work. which for a program uses you

nice spaceship, the blue engine looks fake. the earth has no atmosphere, it looks like a painted ball; improve this. moon looks awesome, just as it has to.

spaceship owns...... but maybe use particles for the engine

all i can say :P

edit: yay postcount 1111

I use Max7....
heres a new one:

p.s. this isn´t the earth

beautiful!
al those metal things on the spaceship, did you model them by hand or did you use bumpmaps or so?

think all 'o it are hand-made

and congrats! the beam is more better now

nice atmosphere on the mars planet, allthough it's not perfectly round, but it looks good. And the beam is also better than the first, however I should have put a bright beam in the middle, or something to make it brighter, I just got the feeling that it is not entirely fitting with the rest of the realistic screen

well i liked the first beam more somehow o_O also the first right down planet was better ^^''

I allthough like the first beams more....
but I think the second Planet looks better.
It is done with Bumpmaps, a Plugin called "greeble" wich is freeware, and a lot of freehand extrudition.
cheers

greeble sucks

i dont think i have to explain the slogan right

my latest

nice, but i think you should vary those cuties a little to each other

is this a job for a spermbank??

brilliant slogan, feel much better now...

i made this illustration for a dutch magazine

simple but yet very effective

the slogan makes everybody feel good

LMAO Realspawn!!!! So you teamed up with dennisb and used his frog from his 'Froggy Boxing' game?!! Looks like you changed the colour of the skin and cut off one if it's legs to form the tail .

Funny work .

Heres some new stuff by me...
http://www.3d-ring.de/forum.php?topic=75...78f5a7ad168323a

674 polys for the "krabbler"

beautiful, as always!

ah, and because i dont do anything other then cinema4d currently, i have another one to show:

wow! nice sparks and blur ;P

Fantastic work Ello!

Not to be rude, but it's been five months ago now instead of two, hope ur still alive light_mystic? :\

I'm getting fairly curious now who's gonna win!!!

yeah i noticed that this contest has gone on for quite some time now and i also am curious as too see who the winner is

Hello,

No I'm still alive. The screens will be loaded to my server soon and I will let you choose each one. Just been busy with life and I log into these forums now and then.

Besides that if I don't reply again for a day. The snow that we are getting will be 7 to 12 inches so it might knock out the Electic.

Thank you for your time.

Paul.

wow. ello. very nice work.
Beautiful picture.

gg Imp

Good to see ur still alive =)
You don't have to hurry, just curious if you where still there.
Take ur time

i wanted to make a xmas picture for the family but i didn't had the time to finish it. but it's nice to see what mental ray sss can do

stats: 3dsmax, mental ray + final gather, 3 lights and mental ray sss fast skin shader

Nice!

merry christmas all and a good 2006 for all you creators
meet the christmas cows

Nice ones! Great look on that candle, and those two cows really brings the christmas spirit!

beautiful renders

lol I know I know... I just been very busy....

In the next day or so you will see all the pictures posted ... I will zip all of them up and upload them to a server so people can download them and view them and then come back on here and check the poll who you think is the best.

-Paul.

Cool, I can't wait

some new, but nothing special:

Good, not being mean but why did you post this? You could have spent the time doing something more worthwhile like a human model.

Remember: Quantity Vs. Quality = Quality Wins Hands Down .

now i'm upset and leaving you for ever^^


ok, doing a human model in an hour, i'm currently involved in a project, so i don't have that much time.
i don't want to win anything, just show it

aight if we gonna post some more screens, a while ago I finished this one, not totaly awesome but I think it's better than my first one.

it's actually not much, but the scene is really great! keep it up

Hello,

People are saying it's about time! If I miss anyone I am sorry please don't hesitate to inform me about it.

http://lddreams.com/Renders.zip

Judging will start one week from now I will setup a poll on whose you like the best.

-Paul.

Cool can't wait to vote
All those screens are just great, nice job everyone!

i have another i want to show, regardles that the contest entry time is over:

btw, how do you like my new logo?

Hi Light Mystic great to hear that.

But one thing you have to change , Please replace the "Tron vom film" Shot with my remade one , couse that what you have in the zip file is the Original File from the Movie and not my Remade one .

Thx

... ello... i do have to ask you again: did you make this in Cinema 4D?? i'm speechless...

Man thats awesome...

thanks:) yes its cinema (9.5 + AR2.5) and a little postwork in photoshop. btw, look out for the free tree creator abaro at sourceforge. i used it to create most of those plants (.obj-export). you need the free plugin riptide (google for riptide c4d plugin) for importing those mostly too big .obj files. the c4d importer cant handle them and riptide is an obj im and exporter

what shaders?? all textures are procedural cinema shaders. of course. i only use this. no bitmaps:)
the tunnel is postwork (radial blur)

Somehow the pic gives me the feeling that it's inside some kind of biosphere, not in an outdoor environment. I guess that is because the sun is not that sharp, like it shines through glass or so... But still it looks very tropical. Awesome !

And your logo... well it's simple and basic, but nice shape

I made a bit of a boo boo yesterday, which I must hit myself with a big custard pie...

After seeing the awesome work in this thread, especially Ello's latest contributions, I decided to share a screen from a WIP here at indiglow. So off I popped to get my image and return to post it here.... and post I did.... only I posted in the last Render Contest... Thus reviving the old thread... by the time I realised this it was too late.... to compound matters someone replied to my post and I replied to them, so no deleting threads for me....

I feel a little stupid sharing the image again, the egg on my face is still a little icky.



Wish I could be like the snail, and hide in my shell...

It's all Ello's fault for being so darn good

thats funny one

From the final render with a new scene backdrop

Comments, Critz etc All welcome

hehe ;P like the main models, but the grass is pixelated.

yes, the grass is bad!

Don't know if it's just me but the mouth looks kinda 'stuck on'. Looks funny though . Grass is terrible and could use a little rain water!!!!!

I presume you guys are talking about the grass texture on the floor, the one that is not tiled well so over stretched?

Not the actual grass poking up. This ground texture will be fixed as it is indead terrible! lol - Again this is from the early stages of mocking up the scene.

The mouth is actually fully part of the snail mesh and has been made to look cartoon like so that the humour of what they say, and how they say it, can hopefully be conveyed.

Thank you so much for your honest critisism's, much appreciated.

beatiful Realspawn!

Nice Realspawn but did you use screenmapping for the door at any point because the texture doesn't look right. It seems as though the grain is going right through. Sorry I can't explain properly. Don't know how to say.

ah, i also see what you mean: the 'depth' in the door seems to be a single image, rather than there's really depth. so the grain on the door doesn't go back and forth, over the door, but stays flat.
in one word: the depth is flat
i think that's what you mean. if it is'nt, that a crit too

RJDL: You know what? You're absolutely right .

your right i noticed that to late but i am still experimenting with textures any way i found it fitted the scene made it spooky creepy unreal and guess what it worked
you looked close at the picture and noticed
