Thanks. Mec4d's Wet Cloth shader. Must go back to the wet t-shirt idea again...
A render I did for Fathers Day :)
Aww. Love this. =-)
That's a beautiful image! I love it! :D
Ivan 7. Um... please stop saying this man is in his 40's. That hurts my feelings. I'm just past mid-40's and he may have had some rough livin'... but he's well past 50.
Excellent image! Nicely done! The lighting is fantastic.
I agree about the age, he's definitely in his 50s.
Wow, that's an awesome image! Great job, and I just love the sepia tones here!
And for the record - I agree with you about the age. He is definitely in his 50's to my eyes as well. And I'm thrilled with it. Can't wait for Thursday when we get paid so I can scoop him up! :D
He's got that craggy style of face. Could be any age from 50-65.
If "Ivan" is supposed to be "Russian", then he could even be in his late thirties. Men here tend to look rugged, especially in rural places.
I quite like Ivan and friends. Here he is looking like a French movie gangster.
I've combined the Ivan and Konstantin heads, added a dash of The Guy 7 for wider shoulders, Gianni 7 skin, Miles hair and my own dialled morphs, from one of my other characters. He's wearing mobster pants (shirt and shoes looked odd in this pose).
Whoa! He looks amzing! The character you created is a star in deed. :D NICE! I didn't buy Ivan (I might buy him when he's on a deeper sale) - but if he looked like THAT out of the box I would have bought him in a heart beat!
Thanks Divamakeup
I like to fiddle with dials and characters and, with luck, end up with someone unique. Before I knew it, he'd turned into the lovechild of Jean Paul Belmondo and Robson Green
hahah Yeah, I'm seeing a little Liam Neeson in there too. :) It looks like you have a great eye for creating unique and striking looking characters! I love him and am totally jealous that you have him. ;)
Well done with him! Thank you for using Dmitri in this one. :)
Ivan is fabulous ;). Here he is with some fiber hair and some other morphs thrown in.
Laurie
That turned out great! Where did you get the fiber hair?
The eyebrows are Oh My Brows from Rendo, the whiskers are Whiskers for G3Males from here and the head hair is Really Short Hair, which is a Laticis Imagery freebie addon for a commercial product (from here) at Deviant Art for Genesis 2 Males. I guess it's not supposed to work without the commercial product, but it does and I failed to notice it was an addon and required something else when I downloaded it. I guess I'll have to get the commercial product since I still use the G2Males as well ;). The commercial product is here. It's already in my wishlist. Heh.
Laurie
Ah very cool! I'll check those out! :D Thanks, Laurie!
BTW, are the the Allen Art that has made the amazing Iray shaders for the jewels and such?
Yep, that would be me :) I make em cause I love shiny objects. LOL
Awesome! I'm a huge fan of your work! Your shaders are fantastic and amazingly high in quality. Thank you for them! I use them nearly every render!
Experimenting with Alfred eyebrows and a bunch of other things.
One breakthrough I finally had was that a lot of Unshaven 2 shaders look better (IMO) with certain hairs with base color set to Scatter rather than Scatter and Transmit. In this case, it's at default with the beard, but the eyebrow, Omri hair, and body hair look too white unless I switched to Scatter. Then they look just right.
Here is Buffed Michael : )
If you wish to see Vulgar Gianni feel free to head over here - http://toyen-art.deviantart.com/art/Vulgar-Gianni-617630002 : )
I've said elsewhere that I love Ivan's face, but not so much his body shape. Here I've combined Ivan's face with Leo's body for a portrait.
I also did the same scene using Ivan with his own body. You can see that render in my Gallery: Portrait: Ivan Relaxing At Home 02
I like it. He looks quite rugged. =-)
Thanks.
Kind of a boring headshot of Alfred, but I'm impressed at the skin. Also testing UHT and ended up putting Laticis eyebrows. (Alfred eyebrows are a little too uniform for my tastes)
Very nice, Will.
Which hair is that? I love how it looks windblown, and very natural.
Will, I've always wanted to ask: why are you people always so dry? Its like there's no specular anywhere... not even in the eyes.
Is that just your artistic sensiblity?
I had to have a bit of a play with Ivan, of course. I really like this skin. A lot. I also really like his head morph, though I didn't use it "in full" here.
Ivan's head morph at about 45%, everything else mixed in with my own dial spins. I don't care for his body shape, but I definitely like his head shape, and he mixes very well with other morphs.
