This is a great piece, Spaceflower! The lighting and the mist really work together to contribute a great atmosphere to the image. I like that you’ve placed a light source from within the creature’s mouth. Creative use of lighting. Also, good job keeping the image from becoming too dark in the shadows, I know that can be difficult to achieve sometimes. Great work all around!
Jeh, the lightning… I played for hours than suddenly… it looked not that bad.
And to add: there are to scenes, the fog around the monster is with bi and smoke. I wanted real looking smoke, but my
PC said no so it became fog
To be honest, I dont remember. I spent a long time with color curves. And jeh there are 2 Renders, the main render is done in cycles.
The secound one is BI and only the “glow” which is surrounding the monster.
I seperated the Transmission color render and mixed a lot of blur, defocus, lens dist. and stuff. So there is no single thing thats makes this look like a panting. But I think the key was setting up the lights right in scene. Those planes are checkerd with 5 diffrent emit colors.
And well… gimp does also a lot of work here.
That’s one really really really really really great render. I absolutely love it. The only thing I’d object to is how small the rabbit is. Until you zoom in it’s hard to tell what it is. But other than that it’s super amazing. Great job!!
I prefer the original source material, but thats simply because I find the teddy bear with the wooden sword more appealing, just a matter of personal taste nothing more. But I appreciate what you have done updating it, and making it a bunny with a lightsabre. Very cool.
It would be nice to see the concept as a short animation.
