Hera and R2D2
Very nice
Kinda off topic but Star Wars related
British actor Kenny Baker, who starred as R2-D2 in six Star Wars films, has died aged 81

Rest in Peace R2.
Sad news, C3PO is going to be devastated
Not a render but Star Wars fun Floppy Disk Orchestra Play the "Star Wars" Theme

Here's a few new SW pieces I just finished
Here's a new one I just finished:
Love it! Where did you get the R2D2 model?
A Star Warsy pinup...
Looks like one of the complete (I think) set of R-series droids in the Vanishing Point freebie archive. I have that; every now and then I try again to put together good Iray materials. This is a lot better than I've managed so far.
I thought I posted this but I don't see it any more, so I must have messed up, here is some new M4 chariters I picked up, work great but brought Fet into Daz on Genesis 2.
That is from Vanishing point...I just added Iray shaders to it.
I also did that to a tie fighter from there last wekend.
Is it okay to put a link to a product in the forums? I found a C-3P0 for Poser somewhere and would like people to know where.
As long as it's not a pay site or a site hosting illegal mesh rips. If it's a pay site, just list the link and other users can follow it.
Anyone have a good recipe for lightsabers in iray? I'm not happy with what I've gotten so far in the pic I'm working on.
Here's a trick for lightsabers that I used while nutting things out... which is ongoing ;)
Render the image without bloom, and when you're happy with it, turn the bloom filter on, hit continue, and it 'should' do one more pass with the bloom active. you might need to increase the bloom threashold by +4000 over whatever it was set to when you started the render. (yes even if you started at over 20,000 it's just what i've noticed).
For this http://fav.me/da8918x other setting I used Bloom filter radius at 0.05 & brightness to 0.75. As for the lightsaber itself Emission temp of 6500, Luminance of 175000.0 in units of lm
Interesting... I've never played with the bloom setting.
I just used the default setting.
I'll need to learn about it more as there was a lot of bluring on the figure....it's a HDRI map in the background, so maybe it's just that.
Check your focus settings on the camera (the area in focus might need increasing), and possibly increase the bloom threashold
Just to be clear, that's a split image with the bloom and non bloom areas.
--
the bloom seems to do add a big blur over everything, which I wouldn't want on things that are not the lightsabers... (I have no idea what the giant white thing in the top corner is...there's nothing there in the scene)
that could be a hidden object (like a lighting point), sometimes they like to render... but boosting the threshold has worked for me, (not just by 4000 sometimes by silly amounts) to combat the bloom on other objects in the scene, some of the time
With Rogue7's bloom trick, I'm pretty happy with this. (Used a little compositing trickery to clean up some unwanted bloom).
You can try this too by 3dTox here in the forums - http://www.sharecg.com/v/80355/browse/21/DAZ-Studio/Iray-shader-for-Laser-Swords-and-poses
It was made for my laser swords before I had an Iray capable machine
That's come up nicely Scavanger :)
Korath Lorren battles his nemesis, the evil Mathis Karr.
I just made this guy.
very cool!
Just finished this one this morning. Not 100% happy with it as this was the only free space HDRI I could find, but it does the job. The hardest part was getting the destroyer into DS, it was in FBX format for some odd reason and EXTREMELY detailed (156 MB). This is with IRAY and no postwork or composition.
Playing around with V4.2 after noticing the Ventress skin as i did a backup...
