Definitely some great stuff there! I also need casuals for V4 for soem of my Dark New Orleans scenes, it's not all monsters and Voudoin.. :vampire:
There goes next weeks content money.. sigh.. but it's needful things. :-S
I finally got some of the CS2 stuff installed. It took several computer restarts.
AARRGGHHH DS crashed on me during a save!!! (cry cry cry)
Well, only list 1/2 an hour of work.. :blank: Coud have been worse.. :blank:
Stupid software! :coolmad:
SON OF A GUN it did it AGAIN!!! WTF!!!
*edit* Well, after 3 tries with this software, saving/shutting down/loading/rendering, I finally managed to get an render going. This piece of is a complete with a !! :coolmad: Worthless !!!!
Now I need an drink and I can't for another 45 minutes!!! :coolmad:
yeah, just what the doctor woulda prescribed. is B-movie time. :lol: or would it be C
oh, what's her name, Becky? Becky Stamos be one sexeh dudette. ... or are they hipsterettes these days
who needs Becky, we have Vickii
This talk of Rollerball and thinking about violent game movies made me think of "The Blood of Heroes", staring Joan Chen and Rutger Hauer, among others. The movie doesn't get much play but I always enjoy it. Anyone else seen it?
Oooooh, I've seen that! I ended up killing the skydome and moving on, nothing I did seemed to help. :down: Hateful grid thing!
...the odd thing is, when I use it with a UE light set like Cloud9 it shows up. when I set up my own UE it doesn;t but the scene is usually too dark and the shadows are off. See.s a skydome must also also a light emitter so I have to figure that one out. Looked at one of the Cloud9 domes in the Surfaces tab and all the SSS parameters are there as well. Have to sit down later and mess around with that. as I recently figured out how to set up an Azure Skies (LDP2) dome for use in 4.6. I just like the details DreamLight puts into their skydomes better as they don't lose the clean look when scaled up.
Warm weather hath returneth to the Portland area so have to get out for a little while.
OK, after a lot of arguing, fighting, and otherwise swearing and cursing out loud (enough to peel paint off the walls), I have a new WAR VIXEN VS ZOMBIE NURSE drop! :vampire:
The ground is more ground-y, the eyeballs are watching, the back cliff is more plant-covered.. all good. Still fighting the shadows, which refuse to turn up (ugh). The eyeball surfaces need work as they should NOT be glossy at all.
But here is today's work!

Enjoy your time out! :coolsmile: :coolsmile:
I need to play with skydomes more, it's a place where I'm lacking in knowledge and I depend on Other Peoples Presets(tm) to make things work. :-S

which skydome? it might be one O' those min bias settings
discovery - Troll comes with a lava body! squeeeee. :lol: he needs like a sexeh fishnet t-shirt
...one I created myself using a dome from Azure Skies with just the lights from Could9.
Never seen this until last night as in the last pic where I used both Cloud9 lights and my skydome, everything came out fine. Didn't change any settings but apparently now the base UE sphere in Cloud 9 causes the grid lines to appear for when I substitute it with my own UE sphere, it goes away. However, then the light balance of the scene is messed up as everything looks too bright and shadows are washed out. When I set up my own light set to mimic the Cloud9 one (a distant light for the sun and a specular light), everything then looks way too dark even though the intensity and sampling settings all match.
Why is it that SciFi/Fantasy artists create these hugely impractical weapons? I can't figure out any safe way to use that one.
That's why I like the good ol broadsword. Even if I forget to sharpen it, I hit you with 2-5 pounds of metal moving at any speed and you're gonna know it.
...Valandar did a couple over the top tongue n' cheek weapon sets: Wristbreakers and Maximum Overkill

THis one wouldn't have worked for the Company I worked for, Has trousers. Need one with a nice jacket and a sensible length skirt.
...but at least it doesn't show maximum cleavage or belly button.
Ok, I'm pretty happy now - displacement maps in place and activated. Bump maps blow! :coolmad:
Probably the last go at War Vixen vs. Zombie Nurse for a while, I need to work on Olaf and the Shield-Maiden next.
BEER TIME AT LAST! :cheese: :cheese: :cheese:
