Story :
Ever since Miho caught the creature, she was feeling anger and sadness at the same time. The more she spoke with the creature the angrier and sadder she got. She vowed to put an end to the evil work being carried out in the name of science (That would be a story for another render). Seeing Miho this troubled I decided to take her to a remote and peaceful island that I knew would calm her down and refocus her mind. We were already working and sleeping in the hyper plane parked at her private secured airport because the creature was with us. We didn't want anyone to see the creature plus this was the base of operations to find this evil corporation's lab and HQ and shut it down permanently. The hyper plane had all the connectivity to her complete network of satellites (that covered every millimeter of earth) and super computers and we were using that to find the hidden lab and the HQ.
This was the 3rd night and it had again gotten to the wee hours of the night and I forced Miho to go to sleep as she had been awake and working for almost 72 hours. I told her we would continue the search after she got some shut eyes. As she slept I started up the hyper plane and flew it to the remote island. It had a top speed of around 25 machs and it took less than 20 minutes to get there. No one had anything like it and the amazingly thing was even at that speed you could not even see a tiny ripple in the glass of water from any vibrations or even feel anything moving. It felt you were still at the ground. The mechanics of it was beyond me and all I knew that Miho had created something once again that I failed to grasp the science behind it, but boy did I love flying it !
Once the hyper plane touched down, I left all three of them (Miho, the wolf and the creature) sleeping on the hyper plane and went to set up the small hut with an outdoor bath for Miho. I knew the sun and the sea energized her and also calmed her down. Sun broke out and I went back to the hyper plane after setting everything up for Miho. Didn't wake them for the time being and got busy cooking some food for them. Not surprisingly all 3 slept until late morning. Miho was first to get up. She was surprised to see where we were and then she understood why I had brought her here. No words were needed to be spoken. She kissed me and then went to the hut to meditate and refocus her mind. I then waited for the wolf and the creature to get up. Though Miho could talk to both of them, I had no such abilities but luckily Miho had already created a translator for me that I could use to talk to anyone and anything. Once they woke up, I told them they were not to step out of the hyper plane or disturb Miho in any way. We then ate the food I had prepared and then the creature and me got down to going over once more everything he remembered and trace his steps from where is was originally from to how he got to the lab and then how he got to the city where we found him... The wolf listened to everything attentively.
After an hour had passed by I went to see how Miho was doing. She was seated on the floor. The smile was back on her face and she looked refreshed. She smiled at me, got up and came over to me and gave me a hug and another kiss and said she will join us in the hyper plane in another 30 minutes and to get ready to leave. So I headed back to the hyper plane to prepare for departure. The next adventure was about to begin shortly.........
About this render :
I love this render ! Miho looks gorgeous and the render came together very well. Actually it was not my plan to do this render. Was thinking about how to continue the creature story.... But while I sat there thinking about about what to render next, I had Miho loaded on an empty scene and on the web browser I had the peace and tranquil render open..... The more I looked at Miho looking so peaceful in that render the more I wanted to render something with a similar pose. So I loaded an outdoor bath and shower area prop I had bought a long time back and never used before. The walls of it was blocking the light so I removed them. That made the scene nice and bright. Immediately a beach scene came to mind and I added the beach and water. The test renders were looking good. Posed Miho as though she had just fished meditating and was just relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. Added the other details like the towel, candle, bath oil / salt bottles. Everything is from different sets. Even the glass the candle is in is not from the same set. Edited the mat Miho is sitting on in Zbrush to press down where her feet and the mat intersected to give it a more natural look. Changed / edited the texture of everything. The scene was looking really good but there was one final problem. The sky visible on the left of the render was completely white washed as I had turned up the power of the sky texture I was using in Octane to get enough ambient light onto the scene. Now if reduced the power, the sky looked good but the ambient light was way too low. So finally added a semi-dome and put the same sky texture on it and place it in that gap. So now I could turn up the power of sky texture without the visible sky looking washed out. The reflection on the flower pot is the actual sky texture but as it is black in color, the sky texture still looked ok on the reflection. Everything looked good and I let it render.
When I stopped the render, I overlooked a little bit of noise left near the candle but after spending almost half a day on this render, I decided to post it anyway. Your focus I am sure will go to Miho and so the little bit of noise more or less should go unnoticed (but now that I have mentioned it I am sure you will notice :p !).
Final thing was to come up with some kind of story to make this render part of the creature series ;)..... As for the change in Miho's hair color well she has the ability to change the hair style or color at will by telling the hair cells to do so ! An ability all her friends are extremely jealous of ;) ! For this render I thought this color looked better. More in harmony with the surroundings.
Btw. I have not flagged this as containing nudity even though Miho is wearing a lace bikini. I think nothing is visible in the render that would require me to flag it so. But in any case if you feel like I should, let me know.
