From shevlin@uic.edu:
This is a very busy scene where nothing really draws the eye to a focus, but
that's not necessarily a bad thing for a pitched battle like this.  This
particular battle seems more like a free-for-all melee, though, since all of
the participants are armored so similarly.  To that end, it doesn't make much
sense why they're fighting since it looks like they all came from the same
place.  Some of the metallic textures (mostly on the weapons) also look
slightly like plastic.  Also, is it realistic to have every single person in
combat swinging their weapon in the air at the same time?  Technically, this is
a very intricate scene that shows off your talent modelling people, but
artistically, it could use a little more depth.

Nice light, and a good sensation of movement.

One of the better entries this round.  The skin texture doesn't seem to go along
with the rest of the scene... an image map might have helped there.  Same for
the hair... maybe one of the hair plug-ins for max would help that.  Still,
nice work.

From marlo.steed@uleth.ca:
This is a wonderful image.  Full of action and the lighting of the scene works
well.  The one thing that bothered me was the inconsistency between the
detailed textures on the armour and the legs of the warriors.  They needed more
definition for muscles and dirt and grime to reflect the realities of battle.

Very nice texturing.

I like the viking take on the topic. Sky and lighting are very good. Atmosphere
seems too clean though, I would expect to see some smoke and dust in a battle
like that.

From simplepsy@aol.com:
Excellent image. There is some amazing modeling in this image. 
The only thing letting this down is the materials on the skin and hair. Looks a
little plasticy. Comming from a max user I feel this could have easily been
avoided

I like the armors and human models. Too dark. The background is too empty.
