Description
So, I had a major computer crash about a month ago which rendered it beyond repair - thank goodness for LiveDrive which had backed up most of my data for just such an eventuality! I now have a new machine with a more recent graphics card, and it renders using Octane at least 5 times faster than my previous machine, so that is great! But one of the few things that I lost was the work that I had done making new Octane skin shaders, so I have had to recreate them and this is where I am at now - this is one of my test renders which shows the SSS quite well I think. I hope you like it - more completed images will be coming soon!
Thanks for everyone's support.
Phil

Cool!! More Carrara/Octane content can only be good :)
Breath taking!
Good to hear you didn't lose everything. She looks fabulous!
It sucks when that sort of thing happens but hopefully you will recreate your work better based on your previous experience. Best of luck and it's looking great so far :)
She looks wonderful!
What a fabulous expression my friend... Fantastic portrait also !
Looks smashing.
Wow, that looks awesome!!
An Amazing portrait!!!!!!!!
Wonderful ans sweet expression !!
That a pretty awesome render for textures. Sorry to hear about your crash but every cloud as a silver lining if you're creating stuff like this! :) Fantatsic work from Carrara!
She looks like that gal from the Star Trek Movie. Very good!!!!!!!!
This one looks great! How did you got the lips looks so soft? I try out many things with the shaders on octane and most I like the outcome but I always think that can get much better
This is awesome Phil.
Sorry to hear about the setback. My computer crashed completely and without warning in early March. It took me a very long time to set things right again, so I definitely understand. Glad you were able to get yours mostly sorted and restored.
