    A- friggin'-dorable.

    What kind of postwork did you need to do, though? It looks like a straight render.

    Great job, btw. Not only in the render and postwork but in overall composition AND setting a mood.


    The postwork's to balance the light'n'shadows better and make the colors pop, details here. Thanks, glad you liked!

    Thanks for the tutorial. I am going to read it a little later!

    For sunlight, I have been undoing the paramater maximum and cranking the lights up to 300% intensity and adding a slight orange hue. It warms things up a bit.

    I look forward to your tutorial and thank you so much for taking the time to write it!

    Very cool! Should be viewed at full size...I was very impressed with the detail and pose. Well done, John!

    thanks, I'm going to try to put out a pack of them pretty soon on sharecg. It'll be a set of leathers, cottons, metals and scale mail similar to what was included with golden age as poser materials only now as daz shaders.

    With this one I went back to the same composition as the visual style cartoony render.

    When I first started using poser, it was as an aid for drawing. Slowly as time's gone on, I've virtually stopped using it for that and instead focused more and more on content creation. Today, I decided to try to draw the Batman and sons shot. These are the faces. I might go back and start over using the composition from the visual style render instead since it's a little bit more dynamic.

    Looks really good Joe. I like your drawing style! Very pulp type with the heavy blacks.

    I got it now thanks

    it was re-modeled by this guy... www.deligaris.com

    who is the most awesome modeler i have known...

    and it was done in 30 minutes in front of my eyes!

    got a little bit shocked by his speed at max and zbrush!

    lately i use dynamic capes (anyone would be fine...i like sshogans from rendo)

    it seems that conforming capes are difficult to look realistic...

    someone sent me a fantastic batman outfit and asked me to try and rigged it for m4...

    a friend of mine said its very difficult cause its not made over m4 (different topology) and it seems like a 3d scan...

    too bad cause it was a nice outfit...

    wish someone could model it...

    If it's an OBJ format it can be fitted to Genesis. I know many in here don't use Genesis but that's all I can suggest. Joe might be able to do it for M4 if it lines up with M4. The arms down like that, not sure though!

    Yeah, I couldn't help but puzzle through solutions.

    1) someone smarter than me just rigs it, cough, Hal, cough
    2) stick m4 in that pose and then run a cloth simulation where the suit is set constrained and m4 returns to his t pose
    3) use genesis and the transfer tool to rig it and get it in the tpose, then rig it for m4
    4) keep the legs and torso and just make new arms

    *coughing mode also on..Hal was the one who said its too dificult to be done...coughing mode off...

    i know its a lot of work for everyone to do it for free and my economic current state is a little above zero...

    anyway...here is a little Black Widow, pin up style kinda...

    I can use it as a guide and remake it for M4, and then if we had the rigging help we could do it. do you have a obj file? Maybe this will get me back on track for my other batman mask I started way back.

    This might be a bit out there, but here's a recent render I did featuring Captain America captured by a couple villains after a brutal fight.

    The cyborgs are perhaps one of my favorite characters to come out recently, so I've substituted red skull with a red-skulled cyborg. The best thing about him is that the business and military suits all fit him perfectly since the body's based off M4 :)

    With all the cloning and consciousness transferring over the years, a cyborg seems reasonable.

    Thanks for sending over the Obj batman suit, I was able to take some time last night and start the cowl, what do you think so far (M4):
