Here's one of two pieces I did for submissions to the "Expose 2" book. Both were for the "Fantasy" category. Lightwave was used for all the 3D(Aliens, Clouds), and alot of post work was done in photoshop(Color correcting, composition, elements painted on, etc.)

Any comments, critics, questions are welcomed :)

Looks almost like a cover to a book I read a long time ago. I like it it's cool. Can we see the wires?

Thanks for the comments guys. Here are some wires for the Alien head.

The same Alien head was used at different angles and composited together in photoshop. Here are some of the renders untouched before any of the post work was done.

Nice composition, i like the colors.

maybe i´d add a bit of volume in the eyes, some specular i think, and more details on the skin texture.

anyway, love the fantasy look.
