Description
Happy Valentine's day!I really had a hard time choosing which angle was better, but here is the original angle www.cosmicdeathray.com/originfx/custom/ap2.jpg . Use whichever you like the most.
This is a 3D version of 's image "Almost Perfect", which you can find at this [link] . Check out her website at www.agilerobot.com Of course, all creative credits go to her!
I haven't been able to make many renders lately because I've been so busy, but I couldn't let this holiday pass me by
Technical Details
Made in Maya, rendered in Mental Ray. Maya ramp shader used on the heart, as well as on the paint brush. Ambient occlusion used on the brush handle and threads to bring out that detail in the tiny cracks and crevaces. Regular lambert shader used on the dude and the ground. Lit with one invisible and very large area light, and also with final gathering from the heart and dark red environment. Render time was about 2 hours.
Here is some shots from the viewport: www.cosmicdeathray.com/originfx/custom/apshot1.jpg www.cosmicdeathray.com/originfx/custom/apshot2.jpg www.cosmicdeathray.com/originfx/custom/apshot3.jpg
[[EDIT]] Losslessly compressed PNG version at this www.cosmicdeathray.com/originfx/custom/ap.png , and a version without the glow at this www.cosmicdeathray.com/originfx/custom/apng.jpg

Your 3D rendering abilities shine (literally) once again on this piece. I love the original and you have done a good job to add to it. Hope to see you cranking out deviations like the good ol' days. Take care.

I don't really think of it as adding, I think of it more as just it being a different version, like from an alternate dimension, or soemthing. But yeah, I'll be cranking them out in due time!

You did a valentines day one!
It's great stuff, man. Really kept the original feel of the piece while giving it your own special touch.

Yeah, I wouldn't want to copy it to the pixel, otherwise there'd be no point in making it
Thanks dude

2D version is better. The smoothness of it all gives it too much of a sterile feeling and therefore loses all sense of the meaning behind love.

DivineError In reply to anagoge [2005-02-14 20:29:30 +0000 UTC]
Well you could take it to a whole 'nuther level and say that the reason he is alone and painting the love himself is because he is too sterile
