Hi
There were some great ideas and images in our last SFTW Golf Course challenge. This week, I thought we should take a walk without the clubs and have modelled and rendered this countryside stile, using Blender 3D , Adobe 3D Painter and XFrog. So now we have the country scene, what will you do to bring it to life?
The “rules”:
* Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright etc
* Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum "regulars".
* There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
To download the image below at its full pixel size, and with an embedded ICC colour profile (sRGB), hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).
When posting back your image – please use the Blue reply button in this first post. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.
Have fun.

Dave, those were the first ones of course, but I knew there had to be more, so the clown had to put his foot on it, or in it by saying something silly about the bull who had to act, and then someone had to come and join his sheepish look, and his bright shoe had to be balanced by certain flowers and their very own moth who also had to be there to avert any butterfly effect of cutting the image, and there simply had to be a stilt on a stilt, also to lead the eyes of the beholder towards the first ones on the other stilt.

Jane, and Dave, I have been trying out pasting images directly from clipboard to forum posts without using the loader widget, and it as been sort of working, but the aspect ratio is way out on this ijmage. It's OK if you click to see it full size, but otherwise, it is much too wide.

Ah, Trevor; I was puzzled but assumed an intended exaggerated effect.

Was it called One Direction and was Simon Cowell the lead singer, and the rest of them now have parts in Eastenders and Coronation Street? Is that them?

Oooh Trevor, you are so close 🙂
( in actual fact here in the UK, everybody has to take a role in Eastenders or Corrie. It's a bit like National Service as was)

You've just given me an idea for a future SFTW scene 🙂

In that case, I demand a preview 😉

Am I going to be using my Dave-head on the Corri cobbles? Or as one of the tough Mitchel brothers or bar maid in the Rovers Return? I wonder what 'Get out of my pub!' sounds like with a Geordie accent?
[EDIT] BTW Euan, how old are you? I'm nearly as old as Prof Norman and I missed National Service by 10 years!

I thought Rambo killed the Predator. Or was it The Terminator? And why does the Predator wear John Lennon/Bono tinted glasses? It's all too confusing. 😞

Yep Arnie killed Predeator, except for in Alien Vs Predator. 🙂

I had capitalized the LIONS and TIGERS and BERRs, but the reference to Dorothy may still not have been clear. I've just played with the HTML a bit more to resize only part of each word.
Yes, I agree with you that flowers are never weeds! 😊

Haha. It was too subtle for me Jane.
Do I have to rename one of my 3D archive folders to wildflowers ? 🙂
