Description

Well, here is the Water Elemental. I had a hard time deciding how to do one, and it ended up being a big guy, but anyway, here he is. I have no idea how I would do fire or air, but I'm thinking about it. Those 2 would require a lot of hand painting and I don't think I'm very good at that. I used Bryce 5 for this, because its faster and less buggy than 6.1. Thanks for looking. Bryce, Poser

Holy sh*t...good image...crit,though...the sails...in most of the models I've seen, they are always full wind...I would think a storm of this severity would whip them about some.....same as the renders when seas are calm yet sails are full...can you rip her apart some?...never tried myself!

WOW! Great stuff! I love your heavy seas there. I agree with yardobe on the sails, maybe a texture map with holes and rips. Also, do the other elementals need to be human???

Artist comment - I totally agree about the sails. I have tried ripped textures but I didn't like the end result. Need to try again. On rippling in the wind, I think I may be able to use the technique used here on the flag. At first the British flag looked like a piece of plywood, then I made a proc texture that looked like folds of clothes and used that on the alpha channel of the diffusion for the main texture of the flag and it worked great. I think the flag looks very 3d and rippling now. I am going to see if I can apply it to the sails... Thanks for the feedback.
