Diamond robbery

[Metin_7]

Hi,

This is an illustration I rendered with VRay for a Dutch magazine. Hope you like it.



All the best,

its interesting and very unique.

dont exactly understand the title, but maybe its cuz im not dutch.

[Metin_7]

Thanks Psy,

The illustration is created to accompany an article about a diamond fraud. I wanted to depict the common greed for usually unreachable wealth.

Cheers!

yeah, awesome render Metin_7. How did you create the rock?

[GoncaloP]

Amazing work as allways!

However the hands seems a bit strange... are they CG too?

Thanks guys! Your positive feedback is much appreciated.

R2J2, I simply used VRay displacement to give the rock its detailed surface. VRay displacement rocks and it renders so relatively fast that you can actually use it whenever you want.

Gonçalo, the arms and hands are exported from the default Poser 5 figure. I agree with you that the hands aren't completely anatomically correct in some areas. That's a Poser shortcoming. I think I'll leave it this way. You can go on and on perfecting everything, but this was a real killer deadline.

Now I'm going to post a totally different render to this forum called "Balkende's nightmare". Check it out.

Cheers!

Hi M7

Off topic:
I wonder if you can guide me to a Poser support forum or something like that, because I own Poser 4 and due a uninstall, Im not able to use it again because it doesnt recognise the auth.code. I ve try to email to them but I didnt have any reply back, I feel like I ve through away a lot of money

Thanks,

Gonçalo

Hi Gonçalo,

That sucks indeed. Try these forums (in no specific order) and tell them your problem:

Dispersion would be nice since diamonds are the summum of light dispersion

toch? of niet soms...

[Metin_7]

Yeah ... would be nice ... Vlado...? Or did I miss something and is dispersion already a fact in VRay?

Cheerio,
