nice work. could you describe briefly how knitted sweater was done?

[ahmedmax]

you did great work 5 *:)

[AndyH]

That is sodding awesome! Brilliant characterisation, photoreal looking rendering, and i love all of the little details like her furry tights, and the scuffmarks on the carpet.

Super stuff.

[wild-brendan]

Its always nice to see the work of a master:bowdown:, well done. Only thing i don't like is the black void at the back. 5 stars though :thumbsup:

[ecore]

Amazing! How you did the fur on the sweater surface? Frontpage stuff for sure.

[leemale]

Awesome job! -The attention to detail is flawless.

[azynkron]

Is that Yoda's mum? ;)

[pk15559988]

I like it! I don't konw why,just like it!

[gjpetch]

Oh wow, all these great replies already! Thanks everyone.
Huge print rez version (1.8M) here (http://www.users.on.net/%7Egjpetch/temp/images/bunny_l.jpg)

The knitted jumper is geometry, which was made using a couple of plugins, decorate (http://www.monkeylab.com.au/rd/Plugin_MonkeyDecorate/MonkeyDecorate_Documentation.htm), by an ex colleague of mine Roger Fransen, and clone (http://www.itoosoft.com/english/menu.php?id=clone) by itoo software. So, I modelled one stitch of knitting using renderable splines, then two clone modifiers to make it into a flat surface, then decorate to conform that over a low resolution model of the jumper. Finally, I scattered some fine fluffy hairs over the jumper, which helped to make it look soft.

Unfortunately decorate is max8 only :( If anyone interested in writing max plugins wants to steal the idea for decorate then go for it, Roger has moved on to bigger and better things so won't be updating it anytime soon, and its a shame not having such a cool plugin in newer versions of max.

[gjpetch]

Here are a few work in progress test renders, and a shaded view.

[ivanisavich]

SO awesome :D

[Turri]

great picture , thats art .. excellent in all details

[Oli4D]

Awesome Job Greg, really incredible!
The only think I don't really 'like' are the eyes. Especially the one which is more open. I does not look very believable to me. Don't know why exactly, but it's the shape that feels a bit unrealisic to me.
But besides that, absolutely great work!

[AJ]

F***ing brilliant!

The jumper & fur is absolutely fantastic.

One thing though - the detail in the print res image is awesome & it's great that you're sharing it with people here... BUT as you've made it available I wouldn't be surprised if you start to see this artwork reproduced in places you hadn't planned, without your permission.

Sorry if that seems a little cynical, but it's a great piece of work & I don't want to see you ripped off.

[munkY]

This is awesome stuff man!

[chainsaw-clausen]

absolutely great. :thumbsup:

[svenjorjensen]

wahh, it´s great as usual¡¡¡

[candicekulacz]

Great job with the cloth effects and the face! Looks great! :thumbsup:

[Stellats]

Wow this is fantastic! I love the proportions especially of this character

[OLD-BOY]

One of the few pieces of work that i would give 5 stars. Fantastic image. I have to disagree with one of the comments, the eyeball is very believable.

Very photoreal.

[Klasz]

Very cool image

Lovely detail on the skin and jersey.

Scary and beautifully rendered it.
The details are so exquisite.
Congratulations.

Excelent. I love all the little details. Fur everwhere.:D

[PaulHellard]

The skin, the cardigan, the hands, the perfectly steamy ninety year old eyes. wow!

I havent laughed so hard in a long time. Then I saw the bunny!!

brilliant work!!

[Techx]

yes, awesome! good job, thats one creepy old bag lol

[John Keates]

I don't usually post in these huge threads full of praise but... this is crazy good. It just goes to show how much going the extra mile with detail and lighting can produce inspirational images. I think it is made by the fact that she obviously isn't real... it creates a wierd kind of hyper-reality.

[gjpetch]

Thanks so much everyone, I always end up feeling disapointed with my own work, its easy to be very self critical, so its great to get such a positive response.

This image may explain the process of making the jumper a bit better, as I said earlier its done using the 3dsmax plugins "clone" and "decorate".

my only critic is about the smooth of the ear.

thank you for the decorate plugin link. did it work with animation ?

after seing this image my only question is-why isn't this a 5 star thread????! I dare someone who gave 4 stars to explain why! :))

[Raul-Reznek]

Raising the bar higher and higher. The fur and fluffy materials look great.
This one is an amazing work! Congratulatios!

[turner]

Excellent stuff. I really like how you did the jumper.

[BrettSinclair]

Absolutely stunning. Love the lighting and that jersey. And her eyes:)

[mrorstad]

Thats just amazing!

I got so carried away with how you've made this old lady, that I didn't even look at the bunny at first, that, and the way you've build the whole decoration of the room is perfect. This is art!

I love the proportions - the huge ear and the eyes, and the cloth is great!

5 stars!

[turx]

it's always exciting to see new stuff from you mr petch!
amazing piece! love the way you did the jumper!
keep inspiring us!

Oooh, this looks absolutely awesome. Particularly good work.

Intersting what it would look like if it was an animation. The lightning and shading is pure genious aswell as the modeling!

Gruöte work mannn ! :D

The details in the hi-res image, is really incredible

Is she 9 or 90?

I guess she's 90 years old and she is longing for the days of 9.

[Thaller]

Hi Greg,
Fantastic character detail.
The cloth looks amazing.
Skin texture looks great, skin reminds me of your alien creature that you did a few years back.
Has a sense of story, I like it.
Well done!

Damien

[QuantumAnomaly]

Arrrgh...why must you use your powers for evil?!

OK, you owe us one super-hot chick to balance this out.

Seriously though, nice job! This will probably show up in my nightmares. Reminds me of the Granny Ted has to kiss in Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey. Say, wasn't there a pink rabbit in that too?

[Staszek]

to Tzrnnut if i may:) sorry :)

the compositon of this illustraion have direction.. and its perfect - the black - isnt bad there - its exacly the piont where eyes see it last.. so its not collidate..

WOW! Perfection, all the way around. Gina

[Molier]

Wonderful 3D model! Wonderful lightning work!

[3mm]

impressive work as always:thumbsup:

[arpaci]

very amazing, also it is nice concept to use elderly people as both black comedy and scary stuff

[gjpetch]

SlayerCZ, AndyH, ivanisavich, Miguel Ortega, mv, Antropus, etc. Thanks guys, kind words from talents like you means a lot.

azynkron, yep, Yoda did come to mind as I was making her, & perhaps a bit of Yubaba from Spirited Away, among other inspirations.

Oli4D, I agree about the eye. I meant to re-do the eyeball, and re-sculpt the face a bit, but got too fed up with it to bother in the end.

AJ, Obviously I don't want people to use the image for commercial purposes without my permission, but if it does happen..... frankly it doesn't bother me that much. Besides, I doubt they'd have much luck selling a product with an image like this.

Visionmaster2, Yep, decorate does work with animation. It does slow down a little bit on heavier meshes, but turning down the tolerance, turning off the gizmo, and obviously turning off any meshmooths makes it speed up. I think its a great tool, and Rogier wrote it really quickly, over a weekend I think. Lets just hope it gets recompiled for newer versions of max.

QuantumAnomoly, hehe, yeah, I have thought of doing an attractive girl in 3d, but I don't think I can compete with the real thing, or with guys like Stahlberg who have that market cornered. I'll do it the day I can think of an idea seems interesting, and doesn't make me feel like a lonely nerdy perv:D
You know, I haven't thought of Bill and Teds Bogus Journey for years, but now you mention it I (embarrassingly enough) really liked that movie when I was a kid, subliminal inspiration perhaps?

[Strob]

WOW! That's my kind of CG! Just love it!

[Matias]

5 staaaars!

[alwalid3d]

I like wool
Possible explain clearly more

[Mobra]

Scary but awesome! One of the most impressive 3d arwork I ever seen in months! Nice image at all! Great wool texture in her sweater!

Congratulations!

[Vimmy]

The shoes a super!

[Dogway]

Gjpetch, Im fan of your works. And this is one again, a superb one. I thought the background was a photo composed, which makes me wonder about my (I think) nice criteria eye. How do you make it? You are a master in lighting and shading. Which render did you use? how you lit?
Hope you dont mind, but I have your sushi guy in a poster in my room.
5 more stars :bowdown:

don't know what to say! maybe: AMAZING!!! :thumbsup:

[ParasiteArtist]

Awesome work! Love the shirt.

She is really creepy :P

[tonyg3d]

Super Duper Work! Well done! :bowdown: 5 stars easy!

My only small crit is the dark doorway in the background and the exit sign. I find them
a little distracting... As my old art teacher used to say, dont put anything into a scene
if it doesn't add anything.

Sorry for the small crit, but fabulous work.

[oryx]

so funny... i love it !!!

[tijuanamiguel]

technically, this is such a masterpiece!

[leishen]

Amazing!!!I like it.

[ICB]

I think this is the best work I have seen for a long time. Technically is great, the modelling, texturing, lighting... and this pullover... awesome!

But the best thing of the image for me is the grandma's face expression, everytime I see her face I can't help laughing, is really great!! I think that the size of the head and the little legs contribute to make it more funny.

I have no critics, 5 stars.

Congrats for the job and the award Greg.

[black-lotus]

super creepy

great work....

:cool:

[Dikoerp]

I cant believe the shaders its very very good can you tell us brief view about how you did the cloth and the ground shaders
Great work man I love it

[fahadkhan]

u done an amazing job.. superb

[Chrisguy]

Hahah WOW, thats brutal XD

[gjpetch]

My only small crit is the dark doorway in the background and the exit sign.
Sorry for the small crit, but fabulous work.

No problem, crits are useful. My thinking about the doorway and the exit sign was that they could be taken as an allegory for death..... but perhaps thats only clear to me, so thats a fair criticism. I had meant to stick a hidden image in the doorway that could only be seen by cranking up the brightness. Its a chair with a skull sitting on it, but after jpeg compression and the film grain I added its unfortunately pretty much unrecognisable.

can you tell us brief view about how you did the cloth and the ground shaders
The main thing was to use a little bit of "Roughness" in the vray material, and a little bit of falloff in the diffuse to make the glancing angles brighter.

[vikramvr]

Fantastic work....This is a masterpiece

[dpendzich]

Wow! That is so creepy, but its amazing at the same time. Great amount of detail!

[xoandre]

When i first saw the thumbnail of this in my email as part of the newsletter, I could have sworn it looked like BILL CLINTON!

lol

Great job!

--Xo

[TheGreat]

I'd give her a big kiss

[eulana]

This is amazing! The fabrics are incredible. What did you use to make her sweater? The movement, light and texture are so real!

[OwlxH]

Very nice work... As other people said I like the clothes most. But everything is very nice... Good work...

[shadowseve]

great detail. Nice attention to textoring A+!

[LMegginson24]

it shows a lot of detaillll. superbbbb. I love it.

[Gimmerzz]

This is great I love the lighting and the detail. Well done (clap clap)

[steffherve]

really cool.. I love it !

[artmaknev]

this piece is extremely emotional, it makes me feel sad for this old woman... the look in her eye is so sad, i almost fell in tears. excellent work!

[danielle]

Amazing Work!
I like the sweater most!
:applause:

[hackett]

For over the past year I have been visiting nursing homes that my grandparents belong to. My eyes always catch on the older men and women who didn't have family visiting...the ones that would sort of look at you with no words to mouth.

Sometimes your not sure if it's rude to say "hello" because you don't want them to know how akward you feel when you stare back at them.

The innocence of the stuffed rabbit is amazing. It's like she is looking for one last thing that depends on her in her quiet life.

If this were a pass/fail quiz I would give you ten stars.

Thanks for sharing your brilliance.

[kayipdus]

greeping a work....but wonderful a model and render....

[sonjecka]

master of sweater modeling :)

[LAURO_MX]

Awsome!
The facial expression is perfect! five stars!

[OhMeSpelt]

Although the left foot of the granny looks kinda as if it's wrapped in cellophane this picture looks just great on the whole! One of my favorites on this site ;D

[zennatavares]

I don't know how people even think of things like this. Incredible

[monsterMash]

awesome man! well done

[funarty]

Hey I know her! :D Good job Greg

[NicoleWingfield]

Proportions are really interesting in your image. I would like to see her animated !
