Rendering My Birthday Gifts, part II
:)
__________________________
Hello everyone. This image is dedicated to my sweet and lovely Vali who sent me this beautiful package, DarkSun, as a birthday gift: a wonderful, versatile texture for Vicky2. My thanx also to her sister Lory who made the top, the shorts and the bracelets you see in this image (they're in the package too).
All that we see or seem, Valentina! I know that you love this kind of interiors, so here it is, sweetie!
__________________________
Once again I got inspired by "The Raven and Other Poems" by E.A.Poe and, in second hand, by the beautiful musical tribute that Lou Reed just paid him in his last album.
Some info/detail: Rendered at 1100x880 with normal AA. It was a long time since I wanted to render another Brycean volumetric, and soon I remembered why I had promised myself to not do that anymore: two volumetric spotlights and one filling radial are the only lights in the scene and the image took 40 hours to render, *sigh*. Sunlight disabled, Mayang phototextures on the walls, "tentacles" composed using Rochr's method. Vicky2 uses DarkSun package by Vali & Lory. Postwork in Photoshop (lettering and some correction on V2 mesh) and Universe (eyes and some highlights).

Hope you like it. As always, comment and/or criticism are more than welcome.
May Your Renders Be Short,
Stefano :)

Wow, awesome work Doublecrash, lighting is really awesome!!!
Mmmh... appena postato, vedo, e anche un "back in black"; mi ricorda molto un paio di precedenti lavori dei tuoi come "Waiting for K" e "Identify Yourself". Inoltre amo molto Poe (come anche il "discepolo" Lovecraft), e di conseguenza un certo tipo di atmosfera. Devo dire che la cosa che mi sorprende davvero, qui, sono le ombre e quei bellissimi "spicchi" di luce. Solo quelli meritano un Voto ;o) - Buona giornata, Carlo
great ! this rocks !!
Awesome image Stefano!

The lighting is so cool stefano... excellent work on this one. Rendertime not even too bad considering two overlapping volumetrics
Splendid mood and lighting, great textures too. It's a fantastic scene, Stefano !
Love the volumetric lighting!! You get such nice things for your birthday too. All I got for mine was a lousy card with the inscription "hope you can make it to your next one!" Excellent work.
quite good :)
wow! those sunrays are amazing! excellent job again---i love the pose of the figure, and the textures opn her and the walls are awesome. 40 hours was well worth it!
Nice going!!!
fantastic image,looks and dresses a bit like my daughter..very cool lighting and rays..
I feel redundant in my comments on your work. You are consistant in producing wonderful renders and this is no exception. great job.
HB! you're a lucky birthday recipient - wonder how many birthday recipients in the whole world would know what to do with that gift - you certainly do! volumentrics always make my jaw go droppy. so, HB!
I see everyone is commenting on the lighting, but that really caught my eye also. The way you light your scenes is what makes them so realistic and attention grabbing.
Stefano this is awesome!!! The lighting is perfect here! The texture on the wall is fantastic! An awesome character that glows calling me to enter the picture! Poe rocks and so do you!!! Excellent work my friend, your'e giving a lot of exercise to my voting finger =)!
Great work Stefano. The lighting and POV is perfect... Fab job!
At the end of this Praise Parade we congrat you with another beautiful picture in all it's facets :) We will all cary you straight into the Hot 20!
Volumetic lights may take forever but they are soooo cool when you do take the time! A very interesting image!
