    To be fair, that's ForbiddenWhispers handywork, I can only take credit for the modelling.  Me and DS, we are not friends.  I can coax the Octane Render plugin to give me something nice from time to time, but if I spend too long in DS I end up pulling out my hair in bloody clumps.  Maybe one day... but it ain't happened yet.

    There's going to be a few postings today.  Stonemason's new Lost Future set has a whole slew of very nice promos,  but the one showcasing AM wolf is particularly impressive.  It has just the right balance of light and shadows and hints at the meticulous details in the environment.  Be sure to check them out on the page.

    Not sure how I missed this one in the past,  but this underwater-bathysphere promo image by David Brinnen  & ForbiddenWhispers is pretty darn cool with the iray volumtric fog distance dropoff.  Well done.

    Glad you like it, Sorry to disappoint, but all the backdrop and fog/lighting is all postwork.

    This one's very simple yet it catches the eye.  AntFarm's Helper bots are in the ageless struggle.  Fire and Ice,  Hot and cold, red vs blue.  Classic.  Triggering the mythic will always work.

    I love the main promo for Stonemason's Lost Future set. It's amazing and really catches the eye.

    Classic magazine ad type promo for Hiking Shoes.  New first product by Kool.  I like the boot,  but I am wondering why there isn't a promo of Genesis 3 wearing them?

    Thanks for setting the record straight,  still a very catchy  promo image nonetheless.

    It's good  seeing bird's eye shot like this,  which TangoAlpha shows the entire scene of Jackson Field.  Another one of those functional promos that give a clear indication of what you're getting.  Cool.

    I sometimes need to compromise between long render times and postwork. I'm just glad its good enough to have fooled you to think it was all render... hehe *grins*

    Expanding the purview of the Art of the Promo today,  this seriously cool promo image by Mark Lawson and his Cliffhanger rock set for Vue.

    Really amazing, I missed this one. Thanks for posting. The blue haze brings some nice depth.

    All I can say is Ron Deviney's Impressions left an impression, expecially this one,  there's atleast 3 cool works of art on the page .

    I am always amazed at the quality of his promos.... Something for me to aspire to for sure!

    I really like the simplicity, lighting and contrast in i13's new promos.  The girl is attractive too.

    Don't usually showcase straight portraits but we'll make an exception today cause this is a particularly good promo by gypsyangel for Ragnar Gianni7.  Its got a whole Jason Mamoa thing going on with the beard,  and rogue pirates are always cool.

    This one hasn't hit the store yet,  but since Stonemason just posted some screens in the Commons we know Canals of Tuscany is on its way.  European canals,  can work for Venice as well.

    I found this one by Antfarm funny,  she's got the "Did I do that?"  look on her face,  and the background fits in well with the explosive props.  You've got to have a sense of humor doing this.

    I just look at what Antfarm makes and know he has a wicked sense of humour...and I mean that as a compliment.

    With a bit of judicious editing You could get it to sing it instead 

    Boom bang-a-bang, boom bang-a-bang when you are near
    Boom bang-a-bang, boom bang-a-bang loud in my ear

    So do any of the past couple of days' releases catch anyone's attention?

  • SzarkSzark Posts: 10,634
