Merlad_blord, Timur (3D)

Title: Merlad_blord
Name: Timur
Country: Germany
Software: Messiah:Studio

"Merlad Blord" actually went on his mission as the skipper on an inexpensive trading ship, more like a boat, when he suddenly encountered and fell for a mysterious woman, not knowing of her contageous condition!
For this image essential to me was the amount and clearity of details as they are ment to hold up to rather high resolutions. The full image is rendered at 2000x2737, although I made it to hold up even higher. To get these details I used Zbrush, after having modeled the initial cage in Lightwave. Eventually I brought it into messiah:Studio for rendering. The final render I color corrected using Photoshop to put a bit more drama into it. Although or even because it is ment to be rather comedic and not "real" for that matter.

This is totally awesome buddy.

Thanx a lot, guys! Nope, I wasn't even planning on animating this one. And that's really ununsual, since I'm aiming for animation pretty much everytime, but this time it's just a quick still. I did the whole piece yesterday in one straight 12hour dash actually. Urged by the need and wish to supply some characterwork for an upcoming book, actually. But I truely hate digging up old things to make them large, for most of them do not have the detail to hold up for print, really. So instead...here's a new one. I've got to do a bunch of them, it's really fun. I think it can happen even faster, but it is truely exhausting to get all the details...need to optimize my work methods, I think. But other than that...I'm kinda happy with it...

I will post a few more renders on my website later...probably tonight or tomorrow...need to do some real work...hehe!

Thanx, again!

Taron

Excellent work Taron, you won't remember but we met a while back at Newtek Day, your work has, and continues to be an inspiration to me.

I'd love to see what the "condition" has done to the rest of his body, my only crit would be his left eye seems kinda dry...

optimize your work methods? lol, your insane.

EDIT: an update to your site would be nice, it's been so long I've stopped checking.
