Cookie cutters

[tomislavm]

nice idea

[Gaieus]

Now Jason, honestly, that's your mom's ccokie cutter you took a photo of, isn't it?

[marked001]

haha...well it was my wife's and i scanned it to get the shape so, close...haha..

so this is going to be yet another christmas card... this time for the family... still working on composition and need some elements to make it 'christmasy'... any suggestions are appreciated...

[Daniel]

How about adding some Christmas cookies and other such goodies?

[Gaieus]

Ah yes, the cookies should be the main thing, maybe with the cutters, some flour, honey whatever you need to make them on the side - scattered all around...

[marked001]

yeah, cookies would definitely be good...that, or dough and a rolling pin or something.. not sure i can pull off the cookies or dough though

[kwistenbiebel]

This looks as real as it can get .
Nice work and I like the family concept in the cookie cutters...

I am curious how this will end up...gonna add some kind of 'twist' to it ?

[marked001]

haha..no, not really... unless you've got something good in mind.. going to keep at it, mess with the composition..add a few more elements.. put our name in there someplace.. hopefully find an hdri to reflect...

maybe have the 'baby' standing or leaning up a bit since that will be the new addition to the family? some kind of focus on it? or maybe have it cutting out some pink dough?

anymore ideas?

How about a Christmas tree shaped cutter & some stars? And you know those little silver balls that get put on Christmas cookies? -- well they could look cool in a render. It's always cool to have lots of shiny stuff!

true, ross.. cutters in xmas shapes would get the christmasy effect across..

[Roger]

Hmmm! Looks like a cookie-cutter solution to me?

[marked001]

funny guy.... i like to keep things simple

These are really nice. They are very photorealistic. Good job. Waiting for more eye candy.

[solo]

Very cool idea.
I made a quick one for you, if you still need one.

quick 6 min. image to show the direction i'm heading..need to move that branch up a bit so the balls arent on the table..i hate when my balls are on the table..

Looking good. How about moving the cutters around just a little bit, so they aren't lined up. That cutting board looks too damn real!
