Demonic WIP

A testrender (that ran all day while at work) for a scene with a short story attached to it.
For some reason his fingers got messed up, need to look at that. Also lighting probably needs to be redone and some fixes to posing etc but i figured it was good enough to post as a WIP.

Arena

Just trying a new enviroment..

Tavern Experiment

Wanted to make a cool tavern scene with lots of lightsources, lots of details etc butwhen i started rendering i noticed it will take forever.
This is a low res preview and it's REALLY grainy, and yet it ran for 3 hours to get to this point. Making several images in this setting is really not an option.
I might go back and re-make the scene so it can be rendered more easily but i havent decided yet.

Anyways, here is the result.

On Deviantart

Just created a deviantart account as well. I will only post the more "soft" images there while still posting everything here.
If any of you use deviantart, feel free to drop by :)

Sidenote The Experiment

This was in no way a planned story, i made 2 images and when i was about to upload one i started typing a short story.
Continued on image 2 and then started making a few more images.
All the story elements are written directly into the new post field and i haven't even read through it once after typing it so spelling errors and bad grammar is bound to occur somewhere :P
Anyways, i might try to make a collected document out of all this to make it easier to follow, but im unsure on how to do it so i guess time will tell if i do it or not.
Also i may do a few closeup shots to add in (on JCD's request) but it's no promise, i MAY do it :P
Anyways, i hope you enjoy the short improvised story, i sure did writing it :)

Death Knight

Setting up a bunch of characters for Reality atm.

A new beginning

Ok, got the new tools, learned to use em, the results for now (below).
Next phase, do some proper work! :)
Problem is just that rendering takes so long, the spartans pic was canceled after 9(!!!) hours and its not even half finished :S
Anyways, stay tuned for more!

The Amazons

Funny story really, created these and even uploaded them to imagevenue several days ago, but i did forget to post the picture here (realised that yesterday).
Well here it is, a triad of Amazons, out for a stroll in the woods.
Who knows what they might run in to in the future...

The Thinker

Did this for the webpage bg, not sure if it's any good but if someone wants it as a wallpaper here it is.

Pirate!

While waiting for the last 3 renders to finish i thought i could upload an earlier material
experiment.
This was mostly done to learn how the materials work in Maxwell.

A bit of statistics

Just for fun i thought i would share some statistics, now these are from google stats which is not entirely accurate since it wasn't active when i first started this page, but they should be accurate since may 2010 (blog is actually from december 2008).
For me these numbers are really quite exciting as i do this only for fun when i get some time over from normal life.
So i guess a big thank you to all of you who visit and keeps visiting my page is well in order :)
Thank you! :)

New Banner again

Well, dunno about this one either but it will do for now...
Been working quite a lot today with a small series of pictures which i intent to write a short story to go with.
Right now i'm at picutre 10 out of what i plan to be about 15.
Not all of them have been rendered and the ones that have been are all quite low res (1000x800).
I might re-render them later at a higher res, but as it takes 25min/image at the current res i will have to see about that.

Working on stuff...

Just a quick render of unmorphed V4 in Cinema 4D with elite texures and some custom shaders.
Still trying to learn the aplication but so far im quite impressed!

Demon Background

A full HD bg for anyone who wants it :)
Looks very dark in the preview so full size view is recommended.
And yes it IS quite dark, its supposed to be :)

FOH Forum (link recommendation)

Just wanted to post a link to a really great page.
This is by no means porn, not even softcore, it's just a forum thread with images of beautiful naked women.
The first few pages might have broken links since the thread is over 1500 (!!) pages long with over 27,433,127 views and 22,759 replies (of with more the half are pictures).
Linky!

New design preview

Ok after a few hours of doodling with blogger templates and a quick bg render for the page this is what i have got so far.
Any suggestions or comments are more then welcome.
Personally i think it's a lot better then my current page, but i am slightly biased :P
Next stage is to somehow organize all my current images, which will take a while i imagine.
But remember, this is what i have after only a few hours, this is nothing final or set in stone, so please leave suggestions if you have any :)

The Ritual

The Way Home

Been spending most of my time experimenting with shaders and render settings so haven't had time to create all that much.
Hopefully i will get some actual work done soon.

Godplay

Might make more of these, no time right now tho, enjoy for now :)

The loosing side

This one was made several days ago but had a bunch of minor issues that needed fixing in photoshop, and due to several re-installations of windows i did not have photoshop installed. So, took the time today and installed in and fixed most of the issues with the picture. I originally planned to take serveral angles, but due to the many glitches that would have to be fixed in each image and also the rather long render time i won't make any more for now. Sorry for not posting much latly but have so much stuff going on right now so its hard to keep up. Hopefully i will be able to get a bit more active once things settle down a bit. Anyways, here is the pic, enjoy!(high res again, might be worth looking at in full view)
