some people feel shy infront of strangers. ------------------------------------------------ Hello once again. Firstly thanks for all the views and comments- this time round I have worked super- hard. I am back to working in bryce though daz studio did work well for my 'unbearable kuma'. 'Shy' is inspired by everything ethnic- I wanted something very rustic and earthy without making it sterotypical so I opted for a very clean and almost austre(rather than earth-tone)render of a simple figure using the brilliant colours that can only be found in traditional clothing. I was borrowing from nepal and turkey and russia and eastern europe and north africa for the feel of this image- utlimately all those ideas got fused into this image. I am very happy with this render ^_^ - check it out in full-size (it looks fractionally more life-like but hey every fraction costs ^_^) Hope you all like it! Utilities used: -DAZ Studio (assembling figures) - Bryce (lighting and rendering) -GIMP (postwork adjusting contrast, saturation and brightness) - Aiko 3 - 'Ling' character set for A3 (freebie here on Rendo)*great freebie for asian characters* - Skin MAT is from 'Minny' character set for A3 (avail on rendo)*superb character and skin mat* - Clothing is from V3 Russian Ladies Bundle by renapd (avail here at rendo) *Highly recommended, worth every penny- even more!*
