Photorealism - Utopia and her sister Eden

I give you a couple of more pictures of Utopia. In one of them, she is posing with her sister "Eden". These were actually rendered at 2800 pixels in width, but those files were too large to post here (and took 12 and 6 hours respectively to render!). I give them do you in a resolution more fit for computer screens.

Photorealism - Utopia II


Another study of my Utopia morph. I love the way her skin turned out in this picture!

Photorealism



I've tried to work even more on my lighting skills. These pictures are from a vicky-morph I call "Utopia" - an incredibly beautiful girl with slightly surreal eyes (too big for an adult woman, giving the girl an elflike appearance). They are lit with only an HDR image for lighting, and with Global Illumination and skylight turned on.

I think that they both border on photorealism. I'm getting there, I hope. No postwork except for some soft blurring of edges where the AntiAliasing didn't work as it should.

Artwork - Shader Studies

These are some pictures I rendered while learning more about HDRI lighting, shaders and indirect lighting. I think some of them are just incredibly beautiful and "artsy", not to mention erotic and realistic. When you have no models in the scene pretenting to be actually human, the eye is easier to please.














Somatypes Project

I've finally had the leisure to sit down and do some shader studies and learn a bit more about indirect lighting and HDRI-based rendering. I also did a new set of morphs for Victoria 4.1 that I think turned out beautiful. I call them my "somatypes project" - which translates as my "body composition" project.

I've tried to represent some of my favourite body types - variations on the Emma morph for V4.1:

1) medium tall, slim, and with A-cup tits - a morph based on my ideal woman... - I call her "Rebecka"

2) Very tall, with great muscle tone and big tits: loosely based on Porno Actress "Rebecca Linares" and that athlete "Stacy Draguila" or whatever she is called - but with dark skin... - I call her "Afrodite"

Here is a study of these two girls, together with a pair of nice statues.
