Prey & Predator - Savanna follow-up by bigbraader
Open full image in new tabDescription
New render from my Savanna scene. The previous one can be viewed here.![]()
Actually, this new POV was the starting point (in my mind) for the entire scene: The tense moment just before the cat jumps for the kill - still an open question if he'll be succesful.
But I decided to build the complex view - for fun and to get a little two-step "cliffhanger". A few changes here: Different posing of the foreground deer.
Vue 7.4 Complete render (nothing 7.4 specific, though). Postwork with Photoshop: Colour/levels correction, lensblur DOF (from Vue z-channel) and framing & signature.
DAZ animals, bigbraader trees & plants.
Now - referring to faroutsider's comment on the previous picture - about mixing species from different parts of the world: The cat is a jaguar (American continent - should be a leopard, but the one I've got was too low-rez). The deer has a sika deer texture (Europe - should be an impala model instead, haven't got one.) As I've stated before: If it's chosen, it's artistic freedom, and not ignorance :)
Thanks for taking a look - comments etc. welcome and appreciated.
Have a nice day
