Hi there,

I am new to Spinquad

I recently posted this image over at CGTALK and cesarmontero kindly asked me to pop over and post it here. I feel honored.

Would love to know your thoughts on the image good and bad. Lightwave 8 was used to redner the image using FPRIME 2 and G2 back in January.

This is a project I have been working on for about 5 years. Used many different software packages.

Originally posted this work back in January, I have now finally had time to finish it. No projection techniques used contrary to what people may think. All assets are available on my site and I can supply any wire frame/texture/mode/uv shots if requested.

The image is based on reference photography of a very special nite that I hold dear to me.

Regards

I N F I N I T E

Re: Weird Science

I saw these over at CGtalk... all I can say is that your work on this is absolutely stunning! Perhaps the best photo-real character work I've seen.

Re: Weird Science

Your character work is amazing.
She does feel like a bit of a giant in that back drop to me though.
The shadow, what's visible of it seems a little out of place too.

Re: Weird Science

I have seen this over at CGtalk. I've never seen a more realistic cg image of a human. (in fact it's all these imperfections as grain, cheap pose, flashlight etc which make it so great).

Re: Weird Science

Very interesting work (stunning, really!).

How much front projection is envolved? If it isn't at all...well, that's great. I'd like to see a complete turn-around of the scene.

Re: Weird Science

He uses no front projection at all, he posted a turnaround of the room and of the character over at cgtalk.

Re: Weird Science

Also saw this on CGTalk, I checked out your other stuff too. I reckon the tutorials on your site could be very useful.
