Description
Over here in Australia, we're into the midst of the storm season (a few months earlier than normal, but thats climate change for you)... a time when mother nature can cut the power to your house and your fridge at any time of the day. So be warned... if you come home and all your appliance timers and clocks have been reset... before making dinner... make sure the food in your fridge has not gone bad...
Not my usual style, but an experiment in trying to get a grasp on Vue's render settings and attempting to get smoothish soft shadows and an even fluoro type lighting. Also tried for a bit of a cartoony effect. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to have a look and for any comments or thoughts you may leave (or any alternative titles you can think of).
[The basic spaghetti critter that I heavily modified for this image was from a cgtalk challenge and the toy blocks were available in free stuff here]

Scary... O_O Lovely render, very smooth. Good to see you posting again!

Adorable! You did a wonderful job with the whole image!!
They haven't gone bad, they're just going! Away! looking for a cooler place, I suppose. Cool. Welcome back.
lol! excellent render - exellent work!
Cool!
wonderful light, great progression of characters from the fridge, and really funny concept. everything is a perfect balance between realism and stylized. thanks for sharing!
Spectacular Horor/Humor! Bravo!
This IS a departure for you, but still a lot of fun. I particularly like the banana/grape creatures behind the psycopathic spaghetti, and his almost-hidden victim. Heheh. I think the soft shadows and florescent lighting came out well, too. Great work, and the title is perfect.
Brilliant caricature! Straight out of "Young Sherlock".
excellent render . good to see you back !
Fantastic image!
Wonderful idea, excellent realization!
Haha! I like the theme and mischievous of this master artwork, it really give me the creep of being eaten alive. I promise I will only eat fruits and no more spaghetti (actually, my personal favourite). This is a food story indeed.
Haha, marvelous!

Wow, I hope that's only spagetti sauce on that knife! Excellent and inventive image. It brought a smile to my face and made me hungry all at the same time. Think I'll go clean the leftovers out of the 'fridge, just in case.
