Amazing... Superb... awesome... please leave a description though!

emarts  10/15/04 @913

This is crazy. Very realistic. I imagine that's what your intent was! Realy well done.

Alecueous  10/15/04 @920

Whoa! I thought it was a photograph! The only thing that gives away that it isn't is the glass. I'm not sure what you could do to it, but that is the only out of place thing I've noticed.

jstaub  10/16/04 @004

Heheh. Thanks for the comments everyone. I'm enjoying reading your responses Re: Boxturtle: How does one become an "elite member" anyway?

Alzahrae  10/16/04 @030

marvelous creativity

DigitalDust  10/16/04 @055

That's just insane! I'd only mention that I think the hilite area on the sink's left is too washed out, like an overexposed photograph. Otherwise...

thienbao  10/18/04 @989

That's so real!!! I agree with digidust, that highlight seems a little too strong. Anyways, Dang!!!

Absolute-naut  10/18/04 @340

Thanks a lot for your encouraging words everybody. I'm enjoying the comments.

Ljoha  10/19/04 @326

Great work man! Do you that guy that work as Art Director Cyan, Inc?

MorteR  10/19/04 @383

Great work! Nice lighting. Thoug try to have both highlights AND dark areas. Could use some dirt as well. That's whats giving it away. Brand new toothbrush, and no marks on the glass. Not even a spot on the mirror. Keep it up!

felisumbrarum  10/19/04 @607

Freaking insane. I am in awe. Wow....just....wow....

Yeshil  10/19/04 @688

expect the toothbrushes its a "superb" work

jstaub  10/19/04 @705

Thanks everybody. Ljoha - Yeah, I am the Art and Visual Design Director for Cyan MorteR - I agree that to make it truly convincing as a photo it needs some dirt and such...if you read my description you'll see that I was going for something really clean because it's for a print ad ( "sort of a Restoration Hardware Catalogue look" ) Anyway, thanks for the comments. I'm enjoying them.

robin74  10/20/04 @132

wow, beautiful work!

Ljoha  10/20/04 @635

For me a great honor to be in top 10 after you! It was long time ago, once I have seen game Riven and after that I fall in love with 3D. I began to be interested with it. I even have ordered from America SGI Indigo2 with Softimage3D. Has bought the book " Inside Softimage 3D ". There was your interview. I read that and spoke wow! Cool! It was about how you do this game. To me was so pity that not you and not your comany did continuation of this game further ! Best Regards, Alex

jstaub  10/20/04 @690

Ljoha - Thanks for your kind words. If you're interested in more Cyan related stuff, we did release URU: Ages Beyond Myst last spring - it's only for PC, and it's real-time 3D, but I'm very proud of what we were able to accomplish in that as well. I'm also working on a short-film called "The Mantis Parable". Anyone interested in following along the progress of the film is welcome to stop by www.themantisparable.com Thanks again!

Hitokiri  10/20/04 @789

Ljoha  10/21/04 @966

Thanks Josh for a good words about my work to. It inspires! And in particular when they sound from the professional as you! Definitely look to Mantis's site! Thank you!

valiente  10/21/04 @489

Is it a photo? Because when you look into the basin carefully you can see a shodow of a person. And also you can see shadows of a person on the tap. (Interesting?). By the way Impressive... +7

jstaub  10/21/04 @784

Heheh, no, it's not a photo. Here's a wireframe for those who are interested -

MKataja  10/28/04 @476

Very cool! One of the best 3D stuff I have seen. Maybe the toothbrushes are a bit too simple looking, other than that the illusion is perfect.

SeanyD  10/29/04 @528

stoderifik  10/29/04 @579
