The story continues from "...And Then..." render. From inside the armored vehicle the woman and the old man had witnessed their team being taken down in literally a blink of an eye. The woman said she was opening the door and surrender. The old man shouted "Don't open that door !!! You said you will protect me till the end". The woman replied "You saw that right ? You saw what she did ?" pointing to Miho standing near the door looking at them with her arms folded. "You still think I can protect you from her ?" and then she unlocked the door, put up her hands and slowly pushed the door open with one of her feet until the door fully opened and she was face to face with Miho. Miho saw fear in her eyes. Suddenly the other side door opened and the old man bolted. Miho could not suppress her smile at that guys' silliness. Where did he think he was going to run to ? There was no escape for him. The wolf instantly took off after the old man and caught him before the old man even was able to climb the embankment of the dry canal there were in. Miho simply asked the woman, "The Corporation ?", the woman was taken aback by the question but replied "Yes". How did this girl standing in front of her knew who she actually worked for and that too about a company as secretive as the The Corporation. Next Miho asked "Board member or senior management ?", the woman knew she was being asked about the old man and replied "Board Member". Miho said to herself, this was a lucky break in her fight against The Corporation and it's shadowy world. She said to the woman "Don't move". The woman just continued to sit there like a statue with her hands on her knees making no movements at all. Miho picked up the 3 women lying on the ground and propped them against the wheel and then she came and stood near the open door. The woman - "Are they okay ?" Miho - "They will sleep until I wake them up". Miho - "How is that a board member of The Corporation come to be on the ship ?" The woman - "The minerals and ore that The Corporation had found..." Miho - "You mean stole the finding of another company..." The woman thought how did the girl know that ? The woman - "...ahem... yes, stole.... was very very valuable to The Corporation's weapons program so they wanted to make sure everything went according to plan and put him in charge." Miho - "How is that no one noticed you lot ?" (Miho remembered the guy she interrogated knew nothing about these woman or the board member). The woman - "We stayed in a part of the ship that was not accessible to anyone but the captain of the ship" Miho - "So the captain of the ship knows you all are employed by The Corporation ?" The woman - "No, he was just told by his company that there was a VIP who was going to be traveling with them and to whom he will have to report everything that they found and that absolutely no one in the crew must know about them". Miho said nothing foe the next few seconds. She was contemplating what to do next. She had to get all of them and the stranded ship off this island so that the orcs were safe once more. She also had to extract every bit of the knowledge about The Corporation from that board member pinned down by the wolf and then there was the more immediate task of taking care of the two exploration teams who were destroying the jungle here and killing the animals. Miho's silence was making the woman very nervous. The woman - "I will tell you everything I know about The Corporation" Miho - "Yes, you will and he will." pointing to the old man on the embankment wall. "You both do not have a choice in that matter" With that Miho moved in an instant and touched the woman on the side of her face rendering her unconscious. She will have to interrogate this woman and that board member later. Right now she had to go and stop the destruction being caused by the exploration teams out there. Miho went to where the wolf had the old man pinned down. He was quivering in fear. He saw the half naked girl bend down and touch the side of his head and then there was darkness. Miho lifted him up as though he was made of feather and put him into the armored vehicle along with all the other women. She didn't have to worry about any of them waking up and trying to get away, none of them were going to wake up until she reversed what she had done to them. With that done, she signaled to the wolf and they both got back to following the path of destruction through the jungle that they had been following before they had come upon this group. The story will continue from the next render...

I am continuing the multi panel renders for now as I think it is a better way to tell the story but how many panels I do probably will depend on how much spare time I have. For this render I wanted to pose Miho as though she was having a conversation with the woman in the armored vehicle and add a closeup of the wolf. Actually the wolf render is a test render. I am still working on it's skin / fur material shaders and I just wanted to see how it looks if the sun was behind him. I like how the saliva looks. Actually it was a T-Rex prop I had that I modified in ZBrush to fit the wolf's mouth and cover the wolf's teeth. I must say I really like how I managed to pose the wolf with his foot pinning down the old man. He looks ferocious. To keep the 2 panels connected, I rendered both with elements of the other. On the top panel you can see the wolf on top of the old guy (background view between Miho's leg) and on the bottom panel you can see Miho's legs and the armored Vehicle. I used 2 cameras on the same scene. One focused on Miho and one focused on the wolf. I need to figure out why the wolf one rendered darker when it was the same scene with no lighting change between the 2 renders. Only the position of the sun related to the camera was different. Though this way, the wolf scene looks more dramatic I think ;). The wolf's eye seems to be glowing. But it is just the light / sky reflecting of his eyes. I used a highly reflective setting on the eyes. I had forgotten to add dirt on the tires in my previous renders so on this one thought I add it. It is done using a noise generator within the Octane material editor. The render times were pretty standard for both. Around 30 minutes @ 4K. Interesting observation about Renderosity. I have never seen more than 3000+ people online as far as I can remember. But today it is showing around 11000+.... odd.... at the same time there is a lot less uploads I think than before....
