As always a superb rendering! :smile:

Loving the texture work :smile:

Looking at that cute little guy i’d kind of expect his eyes not to be so bright and shiny.

-Matt

Nice work! He looks as tired as I feel right now. :slight_smile: Looks like there is some faceting on his horns. Cool character!

Wow!! as usual fantastic Render and model. :!: :!:

I like very much the way u got expressions from lighting.

MarcoG

im sure its intentional, but he really looks like hes missing some specularity.

That’s awesome.

:lol: :lol: :lol:
Rock on Sammy :smile:

Nice work Richard. Could you post up a zoomed in image of the skin that you are talking about?

Chris Jackson

I like it a lot.
nice work!

I like those facets on the horns…

same with the detailed skin…how long did it take to render?..

are you gonna animate it??

Top class Richard :wink:

Heh…no offence Richard, but I can’t help but think those facets Cocolas refers to are meshsmooth artifacts from smoothing triangular poles at the top. Am I right?

hehe…I thought they might be meshsmooth artifacts…but they seem like scratches/cuts in the horns as it points up…as if intended :lol: :lol: …if they were happening anywhere else on the model they would look off…there they seem like they fit :smile: …at least to me :wink:

paul.

heh heh…yup, they are meshsmooth artifacts…I got lazy. :slight_smile:

-Richard

brilliant work.

any animations?

Also is any of the skin procedural or is it all hand made (so to speak)

Again - very nice, you never cease to amaze us!
Care to share your “rendering in layers” workflow?

No, no time to animate him.

Layers is very easy with any application you use once you know how to use the Photoshop compositing modes, especially Screen and Multiply. I end up rendering most of my layers in these two modes and then adding (screen) or subtracting (multiply) to the image, in much the same way you add and subtract to a painting using acrylic paints. The other modes are very handy too, once you know how to use thme, but I don’t use them nearly as much as these two. Overlay is handy too.

Cool.

Thanks for the tip Richard :smile:
