Description
Once I decided to not bother with a fully 3D environment and settled for a floor and back wall I started to really enjoy this. Bloom is a fun effect, and I spent quite awhile tinkering with both lighting and the slime beast material settings to get that "heat bloom" visual effect.It turns out though that not only are there no pre-made full body poses for using that weapon, there's no good poses for it, period. The entire pose has to be hand-adjusted, else the heat cannon (which is really a missile launcher without the missile) won't match up with her arm and hand, and for the life of me I don't know what to do with her left arm. For these reasons, I am really hoping that she doesn't survive very long, or at least loses the weapon.

Excellent render. Outstanding job with the lights. It really sells that bloom effect. I think you made a perfect choice for the background. It's simple but extremely effective and looks great. Excellent job converting the effect into Iray. I know that when converting a shader to a PBR engine there can be a lot of unforeseen effects that pop up. That slimey effect I presume you created with thin coat really improves the look of the slime beast model. That does look like a tough thing to pose with, and I can sympathize with the extra trouble that I know V4 will give you trying to make one from scratch. It was a smart move having her be inexperienced with the heat cannon. It completely covers any awkwardness in the pose because honestly what do you do with the left hand? The way you have her left hand now is the only place where she could counterbalance herself properly in that stance. You did a great job on this. It's a fine start to the mission indeed.

Yeah, Thin Coat was the key. That and playing with the translucency.
Thanks for the feedback on Zeiland's pose, I feel much better about it now

Thanks! It's a bit of work to convert 3Delight special effects into Iray, but it's worth it.
