Hot Line
Now:
The bad is easily the texture on the circuit tracing shapes and the dark beveling that doesn’t look right.
The good is the fairly intense glow and light vs. dark values, plus the sort of shiny scratches among the dark areas. Almost as if old copper was being scratched to reveal fresh-bright redness underneath.
Spines
Now:
I can still enjoy this piece as a 3d doodle. The simplicity and reasonable textures feel more forgivable than some of my overworked and under-designed 3d images. A part of me, seeing this again, wants to develop more simple, iconic 3d images and achieve better results on such a low level of complexity, before attempting more involved scenes again.
Fountain
Now:
Unfortunately this is not a piece that has aged well. It has some sentimental value as my first 3d image but the flaws are glaring now. Still it was, at the time, a worthwhile attempt at getting into (and succeeding, in that regard) an art gallery show, still my only participation in a show to this day.
