Description

Currently working on a commission at DeviantArt, so I haven't kept up with much here. :( Something a bit different: guys in wetlook. Here's Kasha's boyfriend Akeem. Wet shading (if you could call it that; I used a wet skin material setting for Hiro 3) and lighting needs work, and it was mentioned that the color of the lake could be making Akeem grimace. :O Back to the drawing board, if you will! (For some reason, I never liked having Hiro 3 open his mouth when smiling. It seems creepy.)

seems like a desolate background so maybe the water being a little strange would work. outstanding character and render

Thanks, Richard. For some reason my using a spotlight on top of your preset seascape lights in Lynn's Point muddied the whole light setup. As for the background, I was going for a mimic of Chicago's North Avenue Beach with the skyline in the background (the skyline being part of a set called "Dystopia" should have clued me in on its drabness). Making some changes starting with Akeem's third pic.
