Description
Finally...her adventure begins!
I thought It would be fitting to start her adventure inside a cave, having to deal with a four legged creature, before she encounters the two legged variety, later on!
I'll be doing follow up renders of her, but they will be out of sequence and not in a series type of order. I'll just try to capture snapshots of any particular adventure she is in, at that specific moment!
Here...she is having to deal with a angry Gargoyle, inside this cave. We all know what the likely result of this confrontation is going to be! (Just a hint...this character never gets killed!)
On a more technical note:
The lighting levels were boosted somewhat alittle...so that I would be able to show the action inside this cave. Rather than adhere to true lighting realism...which would make this cave scene much darker and more difficult to see! Lighting is always such a give and take essence in itself, but without proper balance, the 3D scene would just look flat!
I tend to bend the rules on realism, when it comes to lighting! Everything else...I do my best to adhere to it...given the capabilities and limitations of both my ability and my 3D software!
A very special thank you...to everyone that commented on her previous render!
Thank's for viewing! :)
