Thanks for nice words guys. Yes, the floor texture is based on M.C. Escher pattern, that I managed to turn into tileable texture - in original Escher pattern though, the flying fishes are shading into the birds.. That's an interesting effect I'm looking after now. As considering the sphere, I think I found solution: TopMod! It's time to make people here remember what this program can do, isn't?

The floor did also remind me of M.C. Escher at once. The figures are cute. I have no qualms about the complex sphere. I see this as a rather philosophical picture. Two parts of us pushing at opposite directions, particularly when we contemplate complicated things. And the light is excellent. Must give you a 5/5 for this.

Nice attention to detail with the floor pattern, reminds me of M C Escher. Except he would have had intermingled black and white fish. The figures are very well done, remind me of bommerman (in the heads at least). I don't know the cartoon. The IBL give a real sense of form to the white figures particularly and the reflection on the black figure is good. I'm less keen on the sphere, that seems a little alien to the rest of the scene. Maybe something with a more neutral matt material would be better suited? That however, won't stop me granting you full marks.

. hey, great job, the only thing I think could be revised is the texture of the sphere, I think the specularity color should be changed.

As always from you a great scene. I love the way your characters seem to have such personality. The lighting in this scene does a good job of adding color to these materials. Love it!
