Description
This was... I do not like this corridor set. Oh my gosh this was a bear to work with!
So, this morning I had this all ready to go and hit the render button and went to lunch and when i got back I realized I had a problem because I had the infamous black jaggy line on the red head's forehead. That took some work to correct. And for some reason the character textures got all messed up so I had to fix those. And then.. for some reason the scene would not GPU render. And hitting the render button was locking up the whole computer! Ugh.
So I separated it into layers. Did the background, then the two characters. Of course, this meant I had to add some lights because of course I no longer had the mesh lights. And then I ended doing something that looks like a spotlight effect and... I dig it. That's FOUR spotlights making that simple-seaming spotlight effect, but... I dig it!
This was inspired by the old anime Dirty Pair. My caption would be, "Why do we always get the crazy ones?!" Actually, that would make a great episode title...
It's a fantastic old anime, if you ever come across it...
EDIT: One good update deserves another! Got updated arm cuffs, so updated the pic. And fixed the eyes. They were slightly off. And fixed the gloves on Pixel. Anyway. WOO!

Yep, that's a tag line that we use a lot at work. Nicely done.
Thanks! I might just have to do another render of the pair. This one was just so much fun, even with the challenges!
