Congratulations to all the participants and winners!

Jean-Marc, your images are really full of life and energy! I really liked your rich compositions, lighting and the fine work you have done on integrating the people to the scene.

Egor, you have done an amazing job on the modeling. Your pace was unbelievable!

Paul, superb work on the composition, level of detail and those buildings on the background.

It has been a great pleasure to be a part of that community. Ronen, thanks a lot for creating such a great challenge and congratulations for the excellent work. I am so excited that I will follow your comments take those images to another level with more CityLife!

What a great set of renderings. That´s pure eyecandy...Well... I think I will stop by Ronen´s blog everyday after my breakfast. It´s just great.

Peter Guthrie raises the standard (again). The image six is perfect. Superb work overall.

What a great set of photos...I really like the architecture, its forms, finishes and the way the photographer has controled the saturation, specially on the exteriors. The style of the photos matched the design, the bricks and cool black gloossy finish perfectly!

Hi Paul. I agree about the road looking amazing and the too strong car lights. Regarding posting work in progress, I just checked his page...He has posted a concept board (very important) and modeling and texturing WIP´s...I really like the atmosphere on that image. Good luck!

Another excellent set of photorealistic images from Bertrand Benoit. I really like the way he uses his virtual camera, his models and shaders. He makes some of the best uses of chromatic aberration in this industry too. Thanks for sharing, Ronen. Eyecandy!

What a great challenge! I wish I had participated in the past ones. It has been a great experience and a wonderful laboratory to experiment new ideas and test the old ones. Thanks to Ronen for the excellent idea and congratulations to all the contestants!

ShyBegleiter Thanks, Skuba! Although I´m never 100% satisfied (and that´s because of the force that keeps me going) I´m very happy to have achieved that level of detail and with atmosphere...This one has been a great challenge. Good luck to you too and happy 2012!

brodiegeers Thanks for comments. The idea of placing a balcony on the right is exactly to create a strong element in the foreground. Something to catch the eye before moving to the whole picture. I want that camera angle to tell several stories about the city. There will be small details with people everywhere to tell something about the concept "The Beautiful, The Sustainable, The Spiritual". I hope to explore the concept to its full extent...I´ve been working hard on that. Thanks.

Hi Jean-Marc. It´s really coming to life! You are doing a great in traslating your concept from your beautiful sketches. Are you going to turn on the light (and glow)on those circular windows? Good luck!

Hi Paul. Excellent work. Specially if we consider the short production time. Great design and great work on fusing the 3d elements to the photographic ones. I suppose the buildings on the background are photos...? Great final image. I am curious to see the other season. Good luck!

Hi Alvaro. I agree with Ronen regarding about the sky and the small foliage and small stuff. I thin you could put some slight silver light coming from the moon too. that would add a nice touch to the scene, specially to the cliffs and their highlights. I really like the composition on all the cameras and specially like the night version. Overall great work! Good luck!

Great evolution. I really like the look and feel of the image. I like the work you´ve done on the house and its interior too. My only comment goes to the background image. The sky should blueish sky should match the slight purple tint on the buildings. That´s where hdri´s come in handy. You can easily fix that in post production though. Good luck!
