Weekend Contest: Throne
We’re rendering thrones this weekend!
For this week-end contest, I was thinking about the theme ‘Throne’.
Artists could create a throne, either a realistic one, a cartoon one, a throne from the future or a very ancient one…
Rules:
- Post your work below (attach an image and a screenshot if you like).
- Post only new work, not existing.
- Vote for your winner by Monday.
- Be sure you’re logged in to Disqus when voting, anonymous votes will be discarded!
- The winner will get a post next week, and will get to pick next weekend’s contest theme. Have fun!
Image: well, I didn’t have any thrones (after close to 8,000 posts, can you believe it?), I then thought I would put in a cat (because, well, internet) but couldn’t find that either (god, this site sucks), so you’ll have to make do with Aviad’s rather nice Paper Castle.
I do believe you don’t have a throne… who would use a throne these days, when you can have a much more comfortable sleep on a sofa :P
Good point :)
Quick Cartoon Render
Tell me how you like it!
Hi Tobias. You can improve your image by having a greater contrast between the focus element and the rest of the image. If the throne is the focus element, put more light on the throne while the guards receive less light. Or by brightening up the scene. You can do that by adding walls, floor and so on.
How is this?
Oops wrong image
I think that looks better. Do you?
Yeah!
not the greatist i am just messing around with the cartoon style here is some of my other work! https://cgcookie.com/blender/images/bathroom-2-3/
True, Cartoon and Freestyle take some time. I played with it a while back. I found it to be quite enjoyable. I came to realise that freestyle was not what I needed for my personal project. So I went back to Standard cycles rendering.
Your bathroom image looks like it is coming along well. Keep up the good work. I came across a interesting page of design tips a while ago. http://www.ctrlpaint.com/videos/?tag=Principles%20of%20Design
It helped me. Maybe it can help you as well.

A simple wooden throne for a Viking king. Rendered in Cycles with some minor post processing in Gimp.
First thing that came to mind.
Nice one! I actually had this idea myself.. Thinking, “throne”,”throne”,”throne” while walking in to the bathroom..
Thanks, It was pretty easy to make. A lot easier than the detail you put into your model.
I accidently logged in on my wife’s facebook account. I’m the one on the right.
Been there, done that. :)
Don’t know why i even compete in these, when they don’t even anounce a winner.
Entirely my bad, my apologies. I got flooded with work. I’ll do a round up today!
I didn’t have much time, but here is what i managed to do: the Throne of the Northern Peaks
Uhm… i didn’t save the compositing (just a little of color correction), sorry :P
Here is it again, our Throne of the Northern Peaks.
Would you mind deleting my previous post, bart? ;)
I did not have time to actually render in color so here’s just a gray render but this is my sculpt for the throne I wish I had more time to make it so much better..
