Description
Trying my hand at a more painterly effect in postwork. Unfortunately some of it is lost at this resolution but viewing full size should show some of it.
Please enjoy :)

Looks fantastic!! Great render and postwork!!
great render, but why a painterly look that always looks so fake, if you want paiterlook just paint it. plz show this render without the post. I think it will look better.
beautiful iamge!
Very beautiful image! Well done!
She's gorgeous...Hugs
Looks great to me. Wonderful.
Beautiful!
vsvry, I don't normally do a lot of postwork but there were several reasons for doing it this time. 1. It's a Frazetta inspired piece, I made 5 altogether and wanted at least one to look more like a painting than a 3D render. 2. Almost everything (except V4, her hair and staff and the flowers) is 2D, so I wanted to make it blend together so you couldn't tell which is 3d and which isn't. In doing this I needed to make the 3D look flatter and the 2D stuff look slightly raised. 3. If I had the ability to paint it this way I would ;) Although I used to paint there's no way I could hold a paintbrush that long any more (darn arthritis). 4. I like it ;) It was something new and different, for me at least. I imagine it would actually print on canvas quite well, I might do that down the track to see if it does look painted at full size (which is about 6 times bigger than this pic). Thank you for your comments :) Liz
Very nice image!
Hi Liz - Personally, I like all styles of artwork and that includes a 'painterly look'. I think you did a fabulous job on this one - beautiful painting technique and a very creative outfit. You did a fabulous job of blending everything together and the result is very nice! Last time I checked, realistic wasn't the objective but rather the objective should be to create a 'work of art' using rendering programs like Poser, Vue or Photoshop. So this is lovely 'work of art' for me and an instant fav! Bravo!
Great character and pose. Excellent lighting and postwork! Very nice render.
