Beta Rendering - artsy fartsy style ;)

While I wait for a worthwhile RC to come out, I've gone back to playing with Beta. This is a heavily photoshoped rendering (the original was too washed out for my liking). Figures done in Poser. The sweaty/dirty look to the skin is actually specularity noise (I started fiddling with the image before it finished rendering :oops: ). I actually like how it came out after the post work. Gives it a much more grundgy look that appeals to my 'artsy' side.

it looks very good, only those big rocks in the middleground look a bit too "rounded".

Thaks rivoli. I agree about the rocks - noticed that myself. I'm doing some 'rock squishing' right now. :wink:

I've also got some tileing problems with the ground in the background. I wish we'd get some procedural materials that could be used to break up large areas and eliminate this map "checkerboarding." :cry:

Wow, not only does this look close to photoreal, but it is also very original and creative. Fantastic use of Maxwell :)
