Description
Glossy Portrait
Just playing with lights, bump maps, and combining multiple renders of the same scene in postwork.
One render with typical wet skin surface settings and lights colored to match skin tones, and a second render with self made "skin pores" bumb map and blue lighting to match background. Overall I believe resultant image is overdriven light and color saturation wise, yet hopefully at least somewhat interesting.
What do you think?

Very interesting indeed !!! This wonderful background could also be used to act as a water surface seen from below (under water) maybe with a small tiny bit alteration in the color. Nice render !!!
MMm... light is fine - overlighting is a well used technique and i think it suit well in there - perhaps the saturation is a bit too strong, but overall it's looking fine to me - could be one of those strong-color covers from some magazines for people younger than i am! LOL! ;)
Lighting is cool! Textures could use something? I like where it is going!
Great lighting and shadows!!Excellent work!!
Definitely interesting - over bright? I don't think so - it really depends on what effect you are looking for. I like the sharp contrasts between the light and dark sides of her face - and how the bridge of the nose seems to deliniate the border between the two zones. A very interesting and successful portrait! Some interesting work can come from playing around. ;)
Good strong colours make for an interesting portrait Mike :)
Woah! The skin, even if satured as u told, is great! The bump and the reflections give a nice wet effect! And i like the contrast between her face and the background.
A beautiful creation!
Wonderful glossy texture! Excellent portrait!!!
LOL Sorry Mike, I'm laughing at choronr's avatar! Your image is gorgeous! This is what I'd call hot or at least warm lighting effects, and it works beautifully here. This could easily be a mag or book cover shot! Very professional work! Fav!
Very pretty portrait my friend. Sorry so late with the comment. I love the lighting you chose as well....Shannon ;}
Nice one! excellent lighting work! And a really nice mood!
