Yoann, yes it's based from the st Barthelemy'painting from Cogniet
i saw it, long time ago, in the musée des beaux arts de Rennes, and the expression of the woman scaried me so hard !!! i 'd just wanted to change it...wanted to erase this expression... wanted to make an " état de choc " ..just paralised by the hatchet, waiting for the death, with no cry, because of is baby.
for the skin shader, it's a diffuse one. i can send it to you when i come back next week. mail me for remember !
