Missing the Real Sights
3D Render by maru_berlin"Oh, a wonderful coastline!"
"Oh, dinner with bling bling!"
Rendered in DAZ3D, using Summoners Doll Eater (maybe I'll redo that with the Sea Serpent that he's got in his store), Postworked with Photoshop and Jixpix Pastello.
Secondary images show the raw render and the wire frame.

I could try to find a more repulsive image ... but why would I?

Everybody is entitled to an opinion (though not all need to be voiced) - personally I prefer constructive criticsim - who knows, maybe I could learn something?

Thu, Jul 16OK, I'll be constructive: my suspicion was (however unfair) that you entered this as an initial salvo, an experiment to see how many likes such an image will entice; ie. it was just for grins and basically an insult to the audience. I apologize if this was not your intention.

Thu, Jul 16I KNOW that painterly styles do usually not win anything in competitions (though somehow I seem to always enter one when I decide to take part), because I like them. And yes, I might redo this, but not after judging the chances but to improve on the sea monster. Also, I do expect to see a lot of bikini beauties at the now prescribed age of 21+ entered, oiled up and sultry. And although I occasioinally do like images like that, I always try to brush against the grain with something different.
I create what comes to mind and though I happily receive likes and comments, I do not live on them. Maybe you'll find my upcoming summer render more appealing, which I will not enter in the summer contest as to not flood the contest with my stuff only because it fits the theme.

What an incredibly strange and aggressive comment "I could try to find a more repulsive image ... but why would I?"
Followed by another insult that included an apology.
I'm Bewildered.

Sat, Jul 18Yep, we are one big family here. And I call it that with full intention, because one can choose friends, but not family 
Thanks for your support.

Clicked on thumbnail thinking "Nice selfie at the beach." Then pan up to see GIANT SEA MONSTER behind her! I love it.
