Description (Another early) experiment in CGing - using the dodge tool and adding a rain effect. For the rain, I used a combo of filters - 'add noise' (mono), 'fresco', and 'motion blur'. Fresco was used to lessen the amount of 'white specs' on the mono noise and thus it gave me less condensed 'rain drops' in the end.

Before I started cging I could see the anatomy problems (not to mention CG). :\ Still, I like the pose I've done.

Samus is great.

(note: I deliberately enlarged the shoulder guards because....it's cool. XD )

NephyKnight [2007-06-20 02:27:44 +0000 UTC]

Awesome job, well done. Though it's probally been pointed out quite a lot, the shoulder's are a bit big. But that doesn't detract from how good the image looks. Congrats.

Nice job of overdoing the shoulder...thingies! No for real
you gave it a touch of your own!

AOENIAC [2006-01-19 04:49:04 +0000 UTC]

Samus always was kind of intimidating, and I think that by exaggerating her shoulders you gave her an even more imposing figure. The arm cannon pointing out at my face doesn't help either!

Very nice.
