nice, I love her expression!
Hah, I saved that one to my render example pictures.
I like both of those but I've only seen Ribbits recently.
Also it's very difficult to get a frog to appear to smile.
Really inspiring stuff here! :)
I would also like to share my latest one. I know, dark picture is dark but oh well... Iray render with some Photoshop painting and postwork. If you would like to see a bigger version, you can find it in my gallery here. :-)
nonesuch00: Aww! Thanks!
Decided to try Anagenessis on Ribbitz, and fitting clothing. Not SO bad. Anything with buttons or obvious seams looks horrible, but that's true generally with clothing and weird morphs.
Mavrosh: A lot of times people just mess up tone mapping and everything looks muddy. In your case, though, that looks _perfect_ with that balance.
Thank you very much! With dark pictures like this, it is always a bit risky.... even if it looks fine on my monitors, that does not mean it also looks fine on someone elses, depending on their monitor settings...
Btw - I just LOVE that little frog of yours! :)
Nice work Mavrosh!
Thank you!
Thanks! But I'm still just scratching the surface and there's so much more to learn! And sooo frustrated with the 20 plus hour renders because I can't use an NVIDIA card on my Mac.... Grrrrrr...
Two days and 7 hours, only 17% done on my Mac with 32 GB RAM... Urghhhhh....
been playing around with this scene for awhile now and finally got it rendered.
...love the lighting and angle. I would to tone down the glossyness on the floor and walls though as it looks like there is a sheet of glass on top. Diamond plate is often used for more traction on metal flooring.
Nice scene. Get ready for the gun safety advocates to take exception though
.
Gun must have pre-authorized GPS Geofencing and fingerprint reader for the users that're allowed to use the weapon - so no problem. Sci-Fi beat us to the punch again.
In lieu of the glassy floor, in the Uber iRay presets there I know are different aluminum and other metal iRay presets as part of the Genesis 3 Starter Essentials.
Lots of nice images. I've seen a few in the gallery and commented. It looks like I have a couple more to track down in the gallery. I finally did an Iray render that I can actually post here. Actually, kind of two renders in one. Workflow was something like - Iray>Gimp>LIE>Iray>Gimp again.

While I agree and went this route on the first few setups, I decided to change that since it didn't look sci fi, but more submarine corridor or something current. I tried various IRAY shaders on it, but decided to stick with the textures it came with and adjusted the IRAY settings numerous times before deciding on this one. Thanks for the comments!!
One of the problems I have with setting up sci fi scenes, is do i stick with what makes sense and follows environmental rules, or go with what would be more futuristic looking even though questions will arise, decisions, decisions,
Mavrosh, thats very good lighitng for your image.

How much for a t-shirt? ;)
- Greg
@algovincian Hah! I'm actually looking into that. I've definitely decided to get one of my own printed. I'm actually rendering a higher quality of Nuggets now. After I take him into Gimp for the postwork I did, I'm taking it to Zazzle to see what I can do. So far, it looks like the cheapest shirt is $17.95 for a basic T. I want to see how good a job they do with it. I've never had one of my images done up on shirt by a professional company. I've always done the home style way of print it on transfer paper and iron it on a shirt yourself type a thing. But, I've heard good things about Zazzle and it might be interesting to see if anyone else is interested in purchasing anything with my prints on them. Not holding my breath, mind you. :)
You pull the plug on that sucker yet? Let's see it!

Winter Castle, Dragon 3, Iray Worlds (for backdrop and lighting), More of Them Bones, Old World Knight helmet, Supersuit, Sickleyield's quick fog, Let it Snow (sort of) to place some frost splotches, then my WTP shaders to add snow cover to the bones and frost to the dragon.
Adding a link, because it's a pretty big image (9 MB):

looks good, Will
I LOVE red and japanese maples. SO that was an obvious purchase...
Stonemason's Japanese maple, Iray Worlds, and my WTP snow cover shader for the snow on the tree.
It also dawned on me, when trying to line up the sun and the skydome of Iray Worlds, that... I don't actually NEED the sun part, particularly if I use Iray canvas to prevent problems with sky blow-out.
...really good. Like the snow falling from undenath where the Dragon is.
Yeah, that's Sickleyield's fog prop thing. Which I debated getting, but works for a bunch of little things.
I HAD been contemplating some sort of mist/snow/whatever coming out of the nostrils, but I was happy with the details as is and when it came time to maybe postwork it in I went 'neh, that works'
The rain is from my free pack (with some adjustments)

Nice work!
