King Nothing

Keith Reesor

King Nothing

A little Boolean creation I did in Vue.
Loosely based on the Metallica lyrics
King Nothing

“Just want one thing
Just to play the king
But the castle’s crumbled
And you’re left with just a name

Where’s your crown, King Nothing?
Where’s your crown?......”

(Why it’s right here where you left it.)

    So creative Keith and with the gold on the King contrasting the black and white of the chess board it’s also very eye-catching, I wouldn’t have a clue where to start with this kind of work and you do it so well,

    Like how you sculpted this, great reflections too! Here at Hallmark the logo has always been a gold crown, once when in a mood of (something) I changed the logo to Clawmark and elongated the crown until the points were really sharp and bloody, with a tight chain around the bottom… the doctor says I’m doing much better now.

  • Keith Reesor replied

    Thank you very much Syd!!
    You crack me up!! Excellent!! :)

    GORGEOUS!!!! – love the crown you created for that King Nothing!
    I know a few kings of nothing it could fit! lol
    Oh & as another ekphrasis your creation begs me to tell my true story – I met the Princess, Princess Royal and the Queen of Poland! [Yes Poland had a royal family & the monarchy passed down the matriarchal line – they escaped Hitler and ended up living in my childhood neighbourhood. Helen [the granddaughter of the Queen] was my best friend at school! Now they were Queens of nothing thanks to Hitler!
    This is a brilliant work!
    B R A V O !!!!

  • Keith Reesor replied

    Thank you very much!! Glad you like it!! :)
    Too bad your friends couldn’t be restored after WWII, but then Russia took over.

    I have no idea how you achieve this, brilliant work, love the reflection of the board on the crown!

  • Keith Reesor replied

    Thank you very much Varinia!! This was constructed in Vue6 using 6 cones, 4 cylinders, 6 spheres and a point light. Once constructed I decided to make it made of gold. Set it upon a checkerboard plane and adjusted camera angle and lighting!! :)

  • Globalphotos

    Is that all?? LOL, well I’ll leave it to you to create these wonderful images and sit back and wait :D Great stuff!!!

  • Keith Reesor replied

    Thanks so much Varinia!! :)

    Excellent work ! Reflections are very reliable and refined tones!

  • Keith Reesor replied

    Thank you very kindly Doreen!! :)

  • Eric Cain

    Eric Cain

    Awesome work! Please tell me how you got the checkerboard pattern to look so good? Everytime I use checkerboard patterns they always end up getting pixelized and blurry the further back it goes. In other words, I cannot find the right settings to have all the squares equal size throughout the pic.

  • Keith Reesor replied

    Thank you very much Eric!! It’s all in the “camera” angle. Looking more down on the object, you don’t see the horizon line. In Vue you can adjust the scale of the material and also in edit mode the rotation!! :)

    Ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa . . . this may as well be written in Chinese . . . . I don’t understand a word of it.

    What I do know though is that you have created a stunning image Keith, and this is something you excel at.

    Well done friend.

  • Keith Reesor replied

    Thank you very much my friend!! It is easier than it sounds!!
    Even though I took an Art Photography class in High School, I forgot what all the f-stop and ISO settings mean. I really appreciate all the great photographers, such as yourself, here on redbubble.
    I have a Canon powershot sx100. It has a lot of manual settings, but I just normally use the auto setting!! :)
