I'm impressed, mtm, this is fantastic. The detail is incredible, and you executed it beautifully. I love the seaweed washed up on the shore, and the shark's body visible under water. The wave and sandcastle are especially artistic. Congratulations on the excellent model!  Smiley

By the way, is that MsRR sunbathing on the beach?  Wink

What CC said!!
You did a wonderful job. I love the attention to detail, the whole concept, pretty much everything about it!

This will be a challenge for anyone else entering the contest!

CC: xD wasn't intentional to have her in there, but now that you mention it.... this also reminds me of an anecdote MsRR told me once about the beach and dolly parton. might've been subconscious Tongue


R8:
I also would like to point out, i wasn't able to capture all the detail in the screencaps. if you guys download the file, play around with it, you'll see much more detail.

@gradient - i do have some, but not as much as i'd like. i tried out a few ways to do it, and this was the best i could come up with.

@ wave - arches? what arches? o_O

Awesome! Tho I agree with R8, more use of the space would be great.

LDD doesn't support the bending 1x2, 1x3 and 1x1 round technique, I assume? Cause that could be used for the wave probably.

And I love all the people ignoring the visible-from-space hugely oversized shark. =P

IDK if it does or not, that's not a technique I really know how to use.  sweatdrop
