lol do not want pride in my life or lies to told of me too ...super job here
Magnifique... vraiment magnifique !
oh wow! amazing work...I do hope this will be a series!
Keep the inspiration coming. Excellent.
A marvelous emblem. An excellent composition. Love the RED background.
Very impressive! If this uses the same lighting technique you were experimenting with, it's a success! Great textures and shadowing on that great background as well.
I love the red and gold, beautiful image, the lie will aways come out, you will get no where in life if your not yourself and be true to yourself!!
You realy do cool things with Xeno,well done dirk.
Oh, Dirk, this is gorgeous!!!!!!!! The lighting and that rich red background really bring out the 3-d quality. Just AMAZING!
Glorious image, and your sure hit the nail on the head with your poem. Really excellent work!
Fantastic fractal Dirk! J'aime beaucoup les formes, assez originales, j'aime aussi le rouge avec le dor Beau travail V :)
Too complex and deep to come to terms with. My son and I were talking about certain world events and conditions, as well as the political and moral ramifications. Though we are at opposite poles, we agree that false pride (an ethnocentric perspective), power and greed figure prominently. A powerful image, Dirk. The deliberate design and eerie shadowplay, as well as the [symbolic] red background speak volumes. An outstanding piece of work.
Yeah, what she said! Lol, just kidding. I do see volumes in this, though. Thats what I like about this kind of work. It means something different to everyone. I see the eagle and the bell, both symbolic. There are none so blind as those who will not see. I know I've said that before, but it is too too true to forget. I love the way it makes one think.
Lovely work. Stunning!
Excellent!!! intriquing and captivating image, red and gold are an excellent combo to me =)
Another exceptional work! Beautifully done, Dirk!
Well done !!! I love this design , so very detailed ! Excellent !!!!!
I was going to comment that I didn't understand the title, but after reading fractalinda's comment, all I can say is, I can relate...
Excellent concept and execution!
wow.. it looks so fantastic.. the mix of colours and the 3D-view is awasome! v
Impressive design and shadow play... Love the background and the thoughts behind it. Another awesome piece Dirk!
Impressive and most evocative work, Dirk. As your red background seems to suggest, the price of pride is most often paid in blood, with a subsequent medal or heraldic device to commemorate and perpetuate that substitute for reasoning and searching for truth and alternatives. The lie will survive until we stop permitting it; something all individuals and nations should think more about! VOTE
Stunning work!!! Beautiful textures and colors!!V
Lovely image Dirk! I really like the metallics, the texturing and shadowing. Well done! V (:
