There doesn't appear to be any focus in the first picture, everything is blurry, and the lens flare in the second picture is really out of place and really hurts the picture. The other two are nice though.
Easily your best so far. You're getting really damn good at this. So good in fact that when I opened the thread and looked at the pictures my nose started bleeding heavily I'm going to press charges

When will these models die.
[QUOTE=Bubz;24248773]When will these models die.[/QUOTE] Obviously, this is the biggest gripe. Forget your usual "comment because it encourages the poster" thing in every way, because the models are absolutely detoriating the pictures.
I like this alot, Great editing, Etc, also, nice models.
I hope the models don't die, at least not for you Egevened

when I was young I would go and sit on warm grassy hills and stare up into the sky. the clouds would lazy float along and coalesce into shapes and I would put upon them the subjective forms that I saw. I would make shape and form out of chaos and I would create art out of what was there. we used to do the same thing by posing these military scenes of violence and shooting. we would create these horribly surgical performances and find the most artistic angle, the most telling view to the heartless offenses portrayed before us. we trained our eyes on the slaughter and butchery of the media we took in as children. is this all you are? can't you find more? make art, egevened. stop regurgitating and find a voice.

I.. I.. I Don't know what to say. Someone finally says something really worth while. I agree 100%

I am in no way intending to make art with what I do. From what I could grasp on what you said, you are antagonizing the presentation of violence as art. And in the same sentence, you call it a flashback from the media. If we talk about a media, tell me, is Reservoir dogs not art in its' own way? Or say, Inglorious Basterds? Or, to not say a tarantino movie, the Matrix is not art, regardless of the violence in it? I absolutely understand your every word and I strive to be like you said. But posing in gmod, as a hobby, gives me limitations on what I can do. And I enjoy it. Not the violence, not the portrayal of it, but as the stillshot comes together. As if it were captured on the scene. You're a pacifist, so-so. You've found art in conceptual things, and I am glad for that. I try hard to find it there as well. Until then, posing dolls in a video game will have to do. Thanks for the comment though. Makes me think a lot.
Drop the lensflares and drop the oversharpening, then maybe you're on to something. I'd like to see you do other things than actiony military generic screenshots though, and definitely something else than "ooooh, over-exposure gives nice CONTRASTS, HEAPS AND HEAPS OF CONTRAST MOAHAHAHHAHAHAHA".

[QUOTE=dgg;24252200]No, that's just a lame excuse we make up for ourselves.[/QUOTE] yep. the only constraints you have are those you put on yourself, and those you fashion for yourself based on the media you reiterate for your art. you can do better. you're expressing yourself aesthetically, but not thematically. I think you have more to say
What happen to all your pretty colors?
[QUOTE=ttam6297;24254144]What happen to all your pretty colors?[/QUOTE] there's lots of color, except this is supposed to give off a winter feeling
To be honest, it's not that different from your recent stuff.
I rather like it. Very much a fan of this filtering/editing style.
Ege you know I love you and all, but as good as the posing/lighting/composition/etc. is they're all starting to look the same, change it up man :(
I like them. The posing one the front guy in first picture is weird, though. The legs are not properly connected to the body.
Holy shit, yeah. I didn't notice that before. Broken lumbar vertebrae :v:
[QUOTE=rossmum;24288366]Holy shit, yeah. I didn't notice that before. Broken lumbar vertebrae :v:[/QUOTE] It's just the model acting up. Check the last pic, it clearly isn't broken there whereas the pose is the same
looks like he's doing some kind of 70's hipster disco-dance.
