New Random Stuff



Some lighting test pics for the next set. Trying a higher ambient, with lower specularity on the main lights, and some bleed thru on the shadows. Cuz that's what you want to know, right? Not that it's the continuing adventures of the mighty Groknar. Apparently in the frozen North or somesuch this time. Nah, you want to know about the render settings. Cuz that's sexy... and stuff.


Erogenesis

And also Erogenesis has his blog up and running. Well actually it's been up for a few weeks now. But this is the first time I've mentioned it, so it's surely the first time you've heard of it. For I am the font of all knowledge... that's a few weeks old *cough*. In any case, he has some interesting stuff there for render-folks. Most notably his awesome Lali Bits project. And his on-going battle to get it to work. Which is a useful insight into how Poser works for those that are interested.

Mmmmm...render settings...Is it getting warm in here or is it just me?

Agree with Ang, Mmmmm... render settings....

If this is gathering of digital wizards then render settings might well be considered the holy Grimoire which turns leaden art into golden erotica!!!

I to enjoy details - nice snow-elf; maybe one will most to Minnesota? You do an unusually good job of credits items used, which I find helpful.

I'm sure a lot of blog visitors have no clue how such images are created, probably assuming you are like some Disney animator who spends weekends hand coloring gels. But many tinker with rendering, and enjoy learnign new secrets.

So any hints as to what your next set will be out of interest?

MongoBongo said...

Hoping Friday or Saturday. Depends on how long postwork takes.

krassomat said...

quality clearly beats quantity!
and patience is a virtue!
that's often easier said then done, though...
esp. with such a lovely couple

I really thought you whould at least make 3 set in a month when you write
Kinda Regular Updates!(LOL)

I am a bit disappointed...

MongoBongo said...

mmmm.... 10 straight hours of postwork and I get to comeback to see a post like that. From an Anon, no less. Lovely... I suppose I could fly into a RAAGE!!, but fuck it. Too tired. In any case, another 10 pics to go of basic fixing, and then another pass for fluid effects. Joy.

i'm not!
must admit i have impatiently been looking here EVERY day in the last week, looking forward to this set, but: the last few have been so extraordinary that it's quite obvious to me why they take a bit longer. plz don't rush it!

Mongo; One of the numerous things I like about you dude is your at attitude as well as your artwork, You don't pull any punches when having to deal with someone who OBVIOUSLY needs to get themselves an AA (that would be ANONYMOUS ASSHOLES) meeting!!!

I can never, ever understand how people like the last jerk can complain about your 'supposed' lack of production. But waht are you going to do ?

Like I stated over on Zzomps' blog I'm really not sure what pisses me off more, the overall stupidity and pettiness of these morons or the fact that they hide behind the ANONYMOUS screen name.

Remember QUALITY TOPS QUANTITY every time!!!

Honestly people need to learn some patience. Yes we are all checking daily and hoping for an update but as TheMadMonk mentioned its a case of QUALITY TOPS QUANTITY.

Keep up the great work.

@MadMonk: whoa cool it, man. i'm totally with you as regards content, but no reason to get abusive... the guy's obviously a customer and as such has every right to express discontent without getting offended. he only said he was a bit disappointed. i've often been disappointed myself when checking here, and i guess if you're honest so were you. just won't make a fuss about it... or if i do i try to do it in a more appreciative way, as in "i'm sooo looking forward to the forthcoming set"... btw i really do :)) still, it's not a customer's job to pamper the artist.
