Congratz, dreamwork great impressin.

#32

Thank you guys :)!

#33

Oh my! I’m so stupid guys, I was sure that this challenge would end today!
Since I’ve got some extra time ( -_- ), I worked a little bit more on mom’s suit (I wasn’t totally happy with it). Maybe I’ll fix other things too…

Today I sculpted some pleats and now I think that mom’s suit looks better.

It’s really REALLY hard to make the pleats of the suits pop up with a camo texture like that (If you have any piece of advise :)…).

#34

Nice rendering, mate! :wink:
to make the creases pop up you can eventually add some very rough spec, or lower the contrast on the diffuse…or even better : bring them out from a shadow pass in post-processing

#35

Thank you Nerikson! I’m following your advices. Unfortunately I don’t think that a shadow pass could help me since I’m using a normal map and the creases aren’t “real” :/.
However a good number of friends told me that the background looks unrealistically empty.
The background is empty because my aim was to create a symbolic scene but I’m doing some tests/adding things and the results seem interesting…(I’ll posting something later on).

Hey Marco, you can always add post effects on photoshop, pop some blending mode layers and paint details-in, its easier and cleaner i think, nice work man !

#37

Yes, I think I’m going to add things in photoshop :).
Howeverrrrr, I modeled a house to fill the background (nothing special).

I’m adding other stuff too.

I think that I’m going to blur everthing to get more depth. I’m also experimenting with lights :).

FYI
HCR Modeling # 44: Soldiers through the Ages- NEW DATELINE MAY 8

#39

Should look much nicer with background!

#40

I really hope so :).
This is my final entry…FINAL (this is not at full resolution).

Now I really like the general mood, I’m not totally satisfied but…you know, I have a lot to learn about modeling and v-ray :). I made differen changes (kid’s hair and clothes, new background, new lights).
I can’t wait to see other works :D. BYE!!!
