Description
Lt. Seiyama converses with her wingmen on her viewscreen during a long night patrol.Just a lighting and materials test of the Valkyrie and flight suit, rendered outside of Poser for a change. I was finally able to get some real refraction in the canopy glass. But the freaking SSS skin shader againβthe light scattered more than I wanted on every setting. And the Valkyrie and cockpit are definitely showing their age now. Need to add some polygons or at least bevel some edges.
Poser, 3ds max, Vue.

I'll bet getting the HUD just right drove you nuts.
Nice work.

Ha! The short answer is: Yeah, a little bit. 
Thanks!

Looks like it came out pretty great to me. The shoulders on the suit came out especially sharp. I can see what you mean about the edges and polycount, but I wouldn't have noticed at all if you hadn't brought it up. I like the way her wing seems to show the mist of the cloud just a bit.

Thank you! I had to morph out V3's macaroni shoulders as usual with ZBrush. I almost wish the interior lighting was more exaggerated like the cockpits in spaceflight sim games, and that 10 other were done differently, but it was just a test to see if an image like this could be created at all. Now I know.
