welcome

wow dame cool, had a look at your site too, some very nice stuff youve done.
respect!!!
im sure ill be asking u some questions in the future lol

very nice indeed! i love it. The only coment is that the lightning feels like its more clowded. idono. Its like this day you feel the rain in the air... or the silenc after the storm :). But it works... it feels like a lighning storm is coming from behind. :)

Hey, thanks!

@voices3d
It's good that the mood feels like something "forbiddingly" - that is the mood I wanted for my planed movie called "End of Time" ;)

That totally rocks man:)...love the grass growing up trough the asfalt, and I love the details and the textures...

GREATE work:)

Top work. I agree with voices though - the lighting is a little off for the sky backdrop. If you check out the windows, they're also reflecting a pretty clear sky so I'd expect to see more direct illumination from the sun in the scene.

Apart from that though - can't fault it. :)

Thank you all.
When I saw the image on a different screen, I had to recognize, that you all were right - the image was way to dark for the bright sky. I just replaced the old image with the fixed one. Sky is little darker, rest is brighter. Please tell me if it ist better now.

Yep. Looking much better now. One thing I've noticed is the lack of shadow from the fire hydrant? or is that simply the angle of the shot?

No, the shadow of the hydrant is correct, the light comes from a high angle - you see a small dark spot behind the Hydrant. If Lightwave made no mistake, thats its shadow :)
Thanks for your comments - was already good help.
Even more comments would be great, too!

Totaly great work. i love it. Care to send a screen of it in LightWave?

Sorry for the bad Wireframe - but I think you can imagine most. Background was added in Photoshop.

Damn crappy LCD screens. :( I need a good quality, affordable desktop plasma display ... yeah ... thats what I need. :D
