Description
Yesterday, when I was cleaning out my darkroom, I found an old book in German that introduced the new Ilford Multigrade paper. It made me realize that that which I now consider very normal (and also, I can't imagine printing my photos without multigrade paper!), was a revelation for people (such as my very talented mother) before my time.
There was this one photo in this book, that demonstrated the use of gradation 5, my favourite. And I tried my best to reconstruct it in C4D.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cloth, hair and hat were modeled in C4D, with V3 as a model.
One spotlight, one illuminated plane and 25% radiosity were used. I'm still not happy with the hair, so I might revisit this one later on.
And I'm rather proud of the fact that this is one of my few renders that needed absolutely no postwork. ;)
Have a great day/night,
Sabra

Sometimes an image just says something,but unfortunately the day is so fresh it is almost impossible to hear.This is such an image for me.It is speaking to me in lucid whispers.Perhaps beckoning me to come closer:D I love the slight fleshtone through the dress material.Your best without doubt. My compliments to you.-Paul

This is better than good. It's remarkable! And it's a CG image? I thought it was a photo. It has a tactile smooth feel to it that I can almost touch. And what gorgeous mood. Well done!

kinda late here, I just came across this image. This is really a gorgeous render. The lighting, the hair around the face, clothing and the hat, the gray tones, and photolike.. it's breathtaking. I'm glad that I finally got to see this.

Fantastische rendering niets mis met het haar. Prachtige hoed en kledij, lijkt me moeilijk te modellen. Ik dacht deze foto wil ik wel namaken in c4d maar toen zag ik dat dit zelf al een c4dmodel was. uitstekend 5
