Description Hope I've got this isn the right category....

Done is 3DS and extensive post production in PS. It is supposed to represent a living heart conected to a machine via the pipes. What is being pumped round I don't know but it appears to be red

Hope you like it and as ever comments are most welcome, especially those that contain some feedback in how I can improve

Enjoy

Not at all - that was the idea I had when I started it. It thenevolved into a comment about how in the future we will evolve to use mechanics too much and may only end up with our hearts as the only thing left....perhaps I have too vivid an imagination

I love it, you did a great job on the rendering in this, and I agree with red glow in parts of the tube things, regardless, great job

It's red and i love it.. It has some sort of complection in it's simplisity..
I like it very much. Maybe the pipes could be a little bit sharper but anyway this is just my opinion +fav

wow, so detailed....i think you did a great job on this.
maybe to improve it you could add slightly more detail to the heart itself, like, i don't know, veins...or those weird spots you sometimes get on your skin.
anyway, well done.

MindPhase In reply to mildtarantula [2004-04-25 13:17:37 +0000 UTC]

Thank you - I might go back and add more to both the background and the heart.....I've been looking at it too long for now though

awsome! thats such a brilliant concept! *stares* I love how the metal looks sort of organic. The BG looks great and really fits the piece, great work

the heart looks very good, a bit artificial but i like it ! good modelling Also, maybe you could have added some red glow to the pipes...Aaaaand some more 2D would be good, the wallpaper looks a bit empty in my opinion. Good job, make it better !

MindPhase In reply to phaze87 [2004-04-25 13:03:33 +0000 UTC]

Balls - I can't believe I didn't put a red glow on the pipes! Thank you for pointing that out . I always make mistakes like that

As for 2D, I would add more 2D but there is one small problem.....I'm crap at it! No, really I am! If you have any tips and tricks then please share as its a lost art to me

phaze87 In reply to MindPhase [2004-04-25 13:07:30 +0000 UTC]

i suck at 2d too well, you can always try the line tool, different sizes, then the wind filter, or without the wind filter, or you can add circles with different blend modes, some small text,dunno, be creative, try out stuff !

SINthetikDreamz In reply to ??? [2004-04-25 12:51:36 +0000 UTC]

The design is good and the heart is very well designed. U should have maybe made the life line a lot sharper, with a lower opacity or darker colour. But overall its a great render. Different to the stereotypical abstract lines and curves. I like, and just because you made such a good render, (I cant even design stuff like this yet) I am gonna fav it.

Good work Buddy. Keep it up.

Its comments like these that make it all worth while, thank you

I did play a lot with the lifeline and finally decided on this one as I didn't want it to tear focus away from the heart.....it was really a balance between making it visible and adding to the piece and making it so subtle that you could hardly see it. I wanted it to be quite blurred as well as this would take it back into the background instead of impinging on the foreground render....

Sorry I went on a bit there

SINthetikDreamz In reply to MindPhase [2004-04-25 12:57:19 +0000 UTC]

Nah its cool, I had a good look at it, It does compliment the render alot better not being so sharp...It was just a thought.Its almost as if it has scanlines like the lifeline screen would have. But yeah great work. More

Thats the same problem I had...I now have the time (I quit college) but my PC cant handle NURB renders and thats what I have been trying recently... So yeah, but I await your next masterpiece.

Chushogainen In reply to ??? [2004-04-25 12:49:10 +0000 UTC]

The effects used are very nice--it gives it a quasi-realistic feel.

I say quasi-realistic because it doesn't QUITE look like a real human heart--it looks cooler. The machines attached to it have a very nice metalic feel--great job.

MindPhase In reply to Chushogainen [2004-04-25 12:55:46 +0000 UTC]

Many thanks....thats the exact effect I wanted. If it was too human it would look out of place....too mechanical and it would just look odd
