    and..... hundreds of Norse words become part of the English language.
    Like the picture gaver.
    There are a few things I could criticise about the image but none of them really matter.

    Thnx Frank.
    IT is seldom that everything checks out in a pic 😉

    Question - the Art Showcase used to be a dead-zone with nothing much for weeks. Now it's really kicked into life. Is there something in the water?

    I have been occupied elsewhere for a while. I think it is kind of snowball effect, seeing pics makes you want to make youre own. Just a few people posting, but it is great to see what others do I think

    I like it. Multiple characters is always a challenge.

    Only thing that may or may not be something to be picky about is I might have set the boat lower in the water. ( but I've not seen many of those ships so it may not be a valid observation)

    If its something in the water only a handful of people are drinking it.

    @frank22 definitely the water 🙂

    But whatever it is, I think more people should participate, I am very curious of some people's skills.

    Unfortunately, imo, very few people can make something amazing with 3d rendering, so people might be shy about it?


    @gaver
    As for my criticism of this render (and you know I like to do that 🙂 ), which I generally like, I'd like to give a few pointers:

    1) This image could really use a depth map, which you would then add in Photoshop. Otherwise, it looks to have very little depth :'(

    2) I see a guy charging into battle, while there is no obvious threat to charge against, while the other Vikings seem to proceed forward more cautiously. He kinda looks out of place? 🙂

    About the one guy...there is one in every crowd...big mouth strikes again

    @Adam Viking longboats did not have much depth, they are flat bottomed ships,. It was an advantage when raiding because they could sail up shallow creeks etc.

    @gaver Check this tutorial. It was called a depth canvas 🙂

    But it can be used either as shown, or just as a fog effect. I think that you might find better guides for it though:

    Thnx Legolas, I will give it a go ( as soon as reality gives me the time)
