I’ve actually seen this one and the ‘Making of’ before. It’s a beautiful artwork, and there’s certainly some things that Blender artists can learn from it.

@There was the Blending Life contest that run last year, so I see no need for the Blender Institute to be giving awards. The winning entry was pretty cool, I was away on holiday at the time the winners were announced so am not sure if this was proposed or done, but it would be cool to see a project overview from some of the winning entries

Maybe Blender Institute should run “Best character made in blender award”?

There are thousands of resources on the net for how to model this, workflow for that etc etc. I also understand and subscribe to the idea that those resources are a benefit to blenderers. BUT why post them on Blendernation, because you’re struggling to find enough blender related news? Perhaps because you’ve lost site of the strength Blendernation had some time ago by watering it down with non Blender related news.

This is one of the reasons that Blendernation is no longer my first port of call for blender news, it’s not what it was, I get more and better news from Blenderartists. BUT I get no news from the other blender forums around the world because I can only read/speak english.

There is so much blender related news going on around the world and I think that is the key, Blendernation would be better if it drew together blender news from around the world, translated it and presented it here, to I guess a generally english speaking community, many of us can’t speak Spanish, Italian, German, Chinese etc to visit the individual blender forums around the world and gain from the knowledge there.

As for the female and comments about skin shader etc, my first thought was porcelain or china not real SSS skin shader stuff. It’s a nice enough image, fantastic skill to do it with 3D but ultimately just another semi photorealistic image with little else to offer.

funny, i wouldnt have said it was that amazing. its lovely and has MASSES of potential but when you see some comparative work on CGS this is actually a bit average. The skin shading isnt that great considering it was done in mental ray, its sort of waxy and sweaty looking. It kind of looks like they took miSSS and inverted the Fresnel Specular shadin . The clothes could have been so much nicer. As it is they look a little bit plastic.

Dont get me wrong its a beautyfull model. but for a mental ray piece it could go so much further :)

Nice postings, worthy of listing even if they’re not directly blender based.

Great work on the Cortina site, but the website itself is totally annoying.

well. first I saw this realistic Chinese artist’s work she shocked me a lot, after I go through the making of I find out that he isn’t using Blender, but his method inspired me and give me some idea to create realistic character, the tool is not important but the idea share can touch and help more people~ good job çŽ‹å¤§å“¥ï¼
