Sky Pools pictures - Please view full-sized image. / Well done. But I must ask about the potential suicide victim on the right. Did s/he pull thru. / I imagine a big drain in the middle and the people on the beach down under having a big shower. / Full view is a must on this image. Nicely done. / simply brilliant , advance congratulations / . Amazing entry. I don't like heights at all & this gives me the vertigo willies. Nice photo realism. Pamiamm....I think you're seeing the windsock. / No joke Janna, a High dive on this baby would be Freaky... / Thanks for all the comments guys & gals and for the generous votes. Much appreciated.
Shark Pool pictures - Chalk is Cheap. / Oh, you're the pool shark, it's your brother who must be the card shark.
PacMan Pool pictures - / Once the cue ball reaches him, it'll be gone and the ghosts in this haunted house will turn blue. / Quality work here.... very very well done its really good.. excellent lighting effect / To say that this entry is excellent is to say nothing at all. It's bloody brilliant, it looks so real, and I want this Pac-Man ball. / great execution, he is waiting his food (pac-dots) / I agree with news; I want one of those too. / dont think he is standing there for nothing, he is wating for luncuh / Like the idea and the ball itself looks real, but the part where you filled in the green of the pool table is fairly noticable. / so close I could almost taste it...I'll win a trophy someday And thanks for all the nice comments
Tomato pool pictures - / An "8 ball" you really want to avoid. Splat. / very good reflection effect..... can u teach me.... how it is....
Pool pictures - Chillin like a Villin source ( http://www.tallboy.org/poolside.jpg ) / The masking is a bit rough, and the chef looks a bit washed out. Great concept.
pool boy pole dancing? pictures - Now he is smaller, but I think he is still a bit too heavy for this palm. source: Subtle Mistakes and JoseFernandes / He IS way too big, but it's a great idea. Make him smaller, add appropriate shadows, and create a reason for him doing that. It's a winner for sure. / Much nicer after the edit. If you utilize the burn tool on the climber, you could shadow his lower right edges a bit and match the lighting of the source a bit... / this is good funny job. is he afraid of the mouse.
Easter Pool Balls pictures - / it would be nice if the picture were bigger / Great work. But I agree with V1n - making balls egg-shaped would make it even better (though it would be very tough to implement in my humble opinion) / i think that if they were egg shaped, they wouldn't look like pool balls any more / each ball shud hv had the color scheme as in different easter eggs ... / I play pool in an APA (American Pool Association) league, and I wouldn't mind playing with these nicely decorated pool balls.
