You're right, I have absolutely no idea where MY marbles went! ;o) haha.... Excellent image.
appreciate the technique explanation George. Interesting work with many possibilities!
Hey... I think I spotted some of my marbles there. Excellent reflections and image.
Wonderful idea - perfectly executed. I love the fresh colors, the POV and the marvellous textures. A beautiful play with transparency and reflection. :)) Excellent work.
This is a beatiful picture!!! Amazing marbles....
Wow! Very cool image! Love your marbles and the reflections in them. Your explaination of how to make marble holes in the terrain is excellent, too! I'm very glad you haven't lost 'em! v
Great idea, well done! Like the textures very much!!
Really excellent work with the marbles, especially with the textures, they're perfect, particularly the swirly one! I used that technique (to create a hole for an object in a terrain) in one of my postings a while back, it works really well. Excellent Render!
Glad you didn't lose your marbles, George, lol, very cool work, the swirly one looks just like one of my favorites from childhood.
~Very Nice~ scene!! Love the idea... and the textures are FANTASTIC!! Excellent
And I htought these were my "lost marbles"! Excellenr job and superb colours, etc on the marbles!
very cool picture. Thanks for sharing.
C'est rssi et l'ensemble fait rliste. Si l'on regarde bien les billes font immenses, peut etre le grain est il un peu fin encore. Nice vue4 mac work. ;-)
Very cool pic!!! Thanks for the tut!!! Well done:)
Excellent artwork! Very well done :)
Neat concept. Textures are fantastic. Marbles are very realistic. A wonderful image!
Excellent idea and textures. Very well done !
George -- this is SO KEWL! I really love the Boolean tip (thanks for the mini-tutorial). I'll definitely be trying this out soon. I really like the composition and interesting textures you selected. And yes, you definitely owe us some info on that sky sphere you hinted at!
yes, great concept! helpful explanation as well...a bit of nostagia for one who played marble games as a child.
