    Bunyip, your stylized works are amazing! Sometimes I want to join the fun, but can't imagine what to do.

    Thanks ! There must be some great Russian Comics & Cartoons that you could use as a base, always love to see your work !!

    Great work everyone. 

    Sorry for continuing to be absent.  My good machine has been tied up with something that is taking way longer than I intended.  Here is a quickie that I'm not sure came out the way I intended.  It is supposed to be variant on tough urban wisecracking woman confronted with a boorish man hitting on her, but the man might look more like a beggar.  The final combines the outline from the coverage pass, the shadow pass and a GMIC filter black and white.  One panel piece.

     

     

    The Great Pickup Artist versus the Great Putdown Artist - nice render !

    thanks for all the comments smiley

    today's render as we look like getting the 2nd wave ~

    I modeled everything in Carrara except for Gosha which I used so I could stick the cricket head on lol.. 

    What's the amazing filter do you use on your illustrations: here and on your nice Hagar's render?

     

    thanks Veronika & Bunyip, it's a mixture of PanosFX pop art filter and my own layer blending styles in PSE2020 wink

    Thanks Stezza !

    Rework of Tough Urban Woman vs Yucky Man

    Thanks for the comments everyone, especially ed3D.  Hope this makes it more clear he is bothering her.  I did a separate render of a bus from the browser tray to create the texture map for the bus stop sign.

    Composite with NPR

    I rendered out a base render (most shaders converted to black/white gradients), coverage pass, and shadow pass.

    I took the base render and inserted it in the backdrop of a new scene.

    In the render room, I switched from photoreal to NPR.  I rendered out two NPR renders, one with a very transparent brush and one with a more dense brush.

    I composited the shadow pass with the NPR, and adjusted some with the base pass to get the text more readable.  I didn't like the lines from the coverage pass show I excluded it.

    Here are the scene setups and NPR settings - but remember that I composited with the base render.  I've posted two screengrabs to show the two different brushes.  There are two scene setups because the first one has the figures and set and the second shows the first base render inserted in backdrop of a new NPR scene.

    I should use the NPR setting more often, thanks for showing your settings !

    Oh, What A Tangled Web

     

    The image is pretty dark, so you will need to click on to the larger size so the white forum background doesn't fry your eyes. :)

    I rendered the BG separately, and loaded it onto a plane.  It was made using the Black Widow model and a GMIC filter (Contours>Skeleton, the raw render is below), and then tweaked with lights and bump maps.

     

    Spiderman is M4, using the Joe Quick freebie morph and textures at ShareCG.  The boots and mask have individual morph controls.  Pretty impressive for a freebie!

    No postwork
