===== From jerry@hoboes.com: Very nice sandy pail. The beach itself could probably use a better sand texture; I notice also that the sand comes up against everything in an overly flat/straight manner: the pail, the soda can. You might also, to get your point across, want to start 'melting' the fort where the water is hitting it. The fort seems to be holding its own pretty well right now! ===== From Sean_Hamilton@amrcorp.com: The castle looks good, but the background sand could use some rippling textures. ===== From gregj56590@aol.com: Texture on sand castle repeats unpleasantly. Frequency of ripples in water doesn't seem right for the ocean. Shells have unpleasant artifacts of non-smoothness. Texture of "dirty sand" on red bucket is very well done. Very cool idea. ===== From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de: The sand looks too smooth and even a trifle too "shiny" to be real sand, which is completely matte and grainy. Real Sand will never form such sharp edges. Some of the sea shells are nice, however. ===== From djohnston@iname.com: The sky and water look great, but the sand castle looks to perfect. You would need to add some places where the sand has fallen off the castle, and make the castle sand darker then the rest, as it liekly does have water in it to make it stick. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: The seashell features are clever and well done.
