Description

A surprise party awaits its unsuspecting victim. Happy Birthday.

(Maya with Photoshop, 35hrs)

The cake, banner and doors are modelled by myself, the rest of the scene was created by the very talented Juan Carlos Silva for use with credit. The scene was rearranged and tweaked a bit from the original composition.

Edit: I've made a few changes, some minor some major, and now this is the final version.

Okay cool, I really like this piece! For me, the cake is what first gets my attention, but then after the first split second, my focus goes to the light on the floor, and then over to the door! You do such a great job with creating a visual path in your art! There is always something to follow that makes the whole piece, a whole, you know? In any case, I really love all the cute little decorations on the cake. Even though they look a little out of place in a cold looking lab setting, but I feel like it's a surprise birthday party, which makes it seem all the more realistic! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> I think you did a great job with this one!
The only thing that looks a bit weird is that the frosting looks a little coagulated. The ribbon probably shouldn't form so much to the side of the cake, it should probably be a little less fluidy, because it'd stick a bit to the frosting, but also, unless it was pressed to fit the frosting, it'd probably be a little crumpled in places, you know?
Other than that, you did an amazing job, and I really like this! You should be super proud because your coloring and textures are AMAZING! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" />
