Description
This was my entry for the a contest
So far this is a picture I've put the most time and energy into. It's a result of almost a month and a half of solid work.
I put a lot of effort in creating a photo realistic image, but also maintaining the comic style.
When I first found out about the contest and saw the reference sheet, I realized the biggest challenge would be to choose which characters to put into the image.
But because I don't want to leave anyone behind, I decided to take the hard route and fit all 31 characters in this single picture.
In the beginning I didn't know how to go about it, but luckily Alex Ross gave me the answer with his Kingdom Come Story line. If there is anyone who reads comics and haven't read this one...well..shame on you...Go get it right now!!!
Every character is a 3d model, for which I had to texture the uniform which took about 6-7 hours for each.
For the more complicated props and objects that don't exist in the Poser community, I hired a modeler to help me out.
I put extra effort into lighting using "RDNA's lighting system" and I emphasized the lighting from below the characters. Final image file resolution is 5758x4606 pixels and the psd file is 1,93gigabytes in size, with 61 layers, something that definitely requires a strong pc.
unfortunately i wasn't at the top 6...
