OK here is my first attempt at bryce 4 rendering any comments? Hope it doesnt come out to dark:)

Well, it looks like the tex stretching in his pants carried over to bryce - ick. =( He looks really good, but I've got two suggestions: First, give him a little expression in his face. You might also want to brighten the lavender of his eyes a bit. It fades out too much. Second, if you can, try to add that glow back to twinkle. Right now, it's just blue-reflective. Keep up the good work! Rosh

Looks good, except for the crotch. In some illustrations he has a leather loincloth. That will definitely help. Also, a glow applied to the scimitar would look cool. Nice work. This is how Drizzt Do'Urden should look!

HOw do ypu appply the glow???

Two possibilities. If you've got photoshop, it's really easy. Just mask render the blade, then load the render, apply the mask render as an alpha channel, select the mask, and apply a glow filter. In Bryce, it might not turn out as well, but copy the blade (just the blade if possible), and make it a little bigger. Find the green light material in the Complex presets, change the color to blue, and apply it to the enlarged blade. Play with that until you get a glow you like. =) Hope that helps. Rosh
