You can vote for as many different entries as you want, but please do not downvote. Downvotes will not be counted when deciding winners.
Every entrant gets a contributor flair.

Looks cool, love to see a tutorial on this bottle business.

5

u/undercome Mar 26 '14

This is the tutorial I found when I was called out on my refraction-less glass bottle here, though this one took a little more playing around since the reflection on the curves was more severe than the whiskey.

This would have been super helpful as a reference. Taco was right the highlights/distortion on the edges makes it much more believable.

2

u/tacothecat Mar 27 '14

I would add more distortion and shading around the edges. It wouldn't be so uniformly transparent Like this

u/tf2manu994 Mar 30 '14

I give up, where's the waldo?

u/tacothecat Mar 30 '14

Sorry, that isn't my image. It was just an example. You can tell by the URL

Great work! The trees that look like they're being wind blown really sell it.

An epic tale of disaster and survival...

edit: Wow! Given all the Spongebob related submissions, I think it's fairly clear that I'm from a different generation.

u/FueledByCoffee Mar 30 '14

Here is your cast.

1

u/FullNoodleFrontity Mar 30 '14

That is excellent!

3

u/aptadnauseum Mar 26 '14

That casting... awesome.

5

u/FullNoodleFrontity Mar 26 '14

I hate to admit it but I spent more time thinking about the cast than I did 'shopping the image.

I thought about Tim Burton directing it but I couldn't imagine Helena Bonham Carter as Mary Ann.

2

u/Chernobel_Laureate Mar 27 '14

Yeah, and there'd be no role for Johnny Depp

1

u/evil__bob Mar 28 '14

What? Johnny Depp would be a great Gilligan!

1

u/aptadnauseum Mar 28 '14

Point 1: it shows in a glorious way.
Point 2: true, true.

u/FueledByCoffee Mar 30 '14

I think it's fairly clear that I'm from a different generation

hahaha, me too. I realized this awhile back when I shopped someone's user name: buckhenderson, then I though 'whoa. I don't know if people will get the reference.'

u/evil__bob Mar 28 '14

Bravo, you magnificent bastard!!!

...I can't believe I'm seriously asking this

but why does spongebob not have a boner? His look would be perfect for it

Awesome work with the shadows!

u/Mitcheli1 Mar 27 '14

Nice shadow work.
