    Almost Home

    His sister always went all out at school, shopping or at the park and as usual half way home she was to tired to walk any further. Now almost home he looks up and thinks to himself, she has put on a few extra pounds in the past few years. The dog looks up at them and thinks how glad he is he does not have to carry her.

    Did it look like that, or did you use some kind of toon shader on it?

    Straight out of the box all I did was camera position and lighting to get what I liked.

    Some great renders so far this month!

    I am still pondering over what I want to do for this month's "Looking Up"

  • isidornisidorn Posts: 1,601

    I just realized how seldom we see giraffes in renders. Well done Linwelly!

  • LinwellyLinwelly Posts: 5,947

    Thanks a lot everybody, that giraffe was kind of a chance find, I was just going through my runtime finding that I never used that one and this is the perfect time for  render with her

    Hi Gang... back from another camping trip.  whew... last one for the year... unless we get an indian summer spell.  LOL.

    Awesome "look up"s for the first week of the month.  Glad you were all keeping yourselves busy whilst I was gone.  :) 

    Great new friend Sueya... Thank you for sharing.

    Gotta love a giraffe render Linwelly.. well done.. Thanks for sharing.

    Dee... cute render.  Love the looks on their faces... they ALL look so happy.  Had to chuckle... I'm not saying a word about gaining weight.. (zips lips)  Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for starting the month off with such great artwork Bigh... Love it! 

    <--gits buzy renderin'

    thank you smiley

    @bigh - I love the look on the little guy's face.

    @deeleelaw57 - Your render has an overall 'look and feel' which I really like; it is very evocative, and it is great to have the dog's thoughts.

    @linwelly - Great render. I like the way you've posed the giraffe to compose a sort of frame about the little girl.

    @sueya - That lovely moment when the bonds of friendship first start to form.

    My effort:

    A Hero to Look Up To

    The Legend of the Locating of the Lost Labyrinth is now part of the core curriculum prompting many school visits to museums and galleries so that scholars (teacher’s pets and insouciant brats) can see works inspired by the tale such as Taruk’s masterpiece bronze ‘Asterion Carries The Princesses To Safety’, which was inspired by Phaedra’s description:

    “Have you ever smelt minotaur sweat?

    There were several occasions during our quest when we fled from danger; Theseus would be the rearguard and Asterion would carry Ariadne and myself away. I will never, ever forget one moonlit run in particular which had Asterion leaping barely visible ditches, and hurdling what seemed impossibly high hedges at heart stopping speed. For me the worst aspect was repeatedly knocking my head against his horn, but Ariadne, poor thing, suffered stoically but severely from travel sickness.

    On reaching safety we would, if we could, bathe ourselves and launder our clothes as vomit and minotaur sweat are truly unwelcome travelling companions.”

    cool render

  • dawnbladedawnblade Posts: 1,723
    Cool renders! Sorry I can't contribute this month. My 8-year old computer no longer works so I am without a computer for a while. I have backups of my data on an external drive and in the cloud, so it could have been much worse. Pricing systems from Origin, Puget, Digital Storm and Falcon Northwest so far. Ugh.
  • bighbigh Posts: 8,147

    sorry to hear that - hope you can find a puter you like at the right price

  • mori_mannmori_mann Posts: 1,152

    Nice one!

    Still deciding what to do. I have a few ideas. Torn between starting now and waiting for the ordered parts to arrived and magically be assembled into a new system. My current beloves coffee grinder is 8 years old  next month (well, the base set up, I did a few minor changes in the past years due to parts expiring) and showing its age (and in, objecting vigourously by slowing down and rattling like it's going to crash on every single reder attempt these days. 

    But then, nothing might work at first with the new system, so we'll see ;)
