Description "The Bird Understands" has to do with only finding one perfect mate in life, and that few birds ever choose another if they lose the first.

Thanks Sherry! Yeah I had fun with the coloring on this one... although the scene appears to be a photograph on first glance, the procedural textures I used for the 3D objects in this scene are all very unrealistic intentionally! I used a smooth surface diamond for the leaves for instance, and huge amethyst crystals for the ground... I even used red wine for the water! lol : ) It all came out well though I think! Glad you agree! : )

Looks great! The only thing that ruins it for me is the textures.

Sum1Good In reply to BananahMan [2010-11-22 20:08:33 +0000 UTC]

Funny thing is, I could have easily used standard default boring landscape textures if I were aiming for realism, but I wasn't, this was an entirely conceptual piece. As a wise person once said:

"In a world where everyone tries to have the perfect image, everyone ends up looking the same. Only the non-conformist is truly unique." [link]

: ) Thanks!

BananahMan In reply to Sum1Good [2010-11-22 20:49:36 +0000 UTC]

Heh heh. I see.

It was actually hypocritical of me to say that since I rarely use textures myself. As a conceptual piece, it looks pretty dang good.

Actually I love that quote of yours, I think we all fall together in that same (conformist) boat from time to time, at least I know I do, lol, human nature I guess!

Thanks for taking the time to comment and for Faving it, it is appreciated... all the very best to you my friend!

Yes I definitely did use my own custom non-earthly procedural materials on nearly everything in the scene, even the water is red wine and the trees a custom mix of smooth diamond and red wine tinted bark! : )
