Description ------ 3D character rendering in Cinema4D (mesh here: [link] ) ------

WOW! Thank you for this DD! I feel honored.



Alexander is ready to cast his first magic spell (on you!).

Thank you all for your great feedback and suggestions.
This helped a lot getting Alexander this realistic!

Rendered in Maxon Cinema4D R11.5 using GI and a very complex light- and reflection-system of my own. Alexander is M4 based with mayor improvements on the textures.
I am using my own skin shader and my own shader extensions for the eyes. The mesh is hypersmoothed and optimized. The curtain is modeled using hypernurbs to.

The spell is created using light sources combined with fractal shaders... My first own magic spell!

I hope you all like him. His evolution can be seen here:



If you would like to peep the 3d mesh under Alexanders skin, you can do that here:



Thanks again for your great support!

This image is too old. All submissions must be as new as December 15, 2009.

One word of advice: Make something an image that belongs to the theme in order to win. This month's theme is "Winter Festival". read the description carefully for a chance to win a voucher [link]

I did not want to submit it into the winter festival folder.
It was my inted to submit it into the featured folder... Could you change that?

Thank you so much.
Mike.

Something that would make this stand out even more is more blue lighting from the spell being cast reflecting off the skin... Just a thought. Still an awesome image.

There is some blue light coming from the spell. It could be a little more... You are right.

It is a complex and tricky scene setup to get a render like this. The model and textures are not the problem...
