Description

A scene inspired by my second most favourite book, the Earthsea Trilogy by Ursula Le Guin. It's Sparrowhawk facing the dragon of Pendor. I'm not quite satisfied with the ocean yet, and I'm also undecided if I should include a Fireball hurtling towards Sparrowhawk (and yes I know Sparrowhawk is a young man, but hey Victoria looks much better in this role :-D ) But any feedback will be welcome B.t.w. Characters are posed in Poser and the finale render is in Vue d'Esprit

Very good production. Some points from the story ... In the initial attack by the sons of the great dragon, fire was exchanged and Ged fought as a dragon. He fought the great dragon of Pendor with words. Did you think of indicating the slain sons? Which side of Ged's face was damaged? Would that show?

Good point about the sons, I was thinking of putting a spiral of smoke on the Island to indicate a crashed dragon (or two). This should be the final confrontation, in which Ged was back in his human form. B.T.W. I don't think you would be able to see the scars at this distance even if they were at his right cheek. (but maybe I'll add them with Photoshop) Pendor itself (the city,that is) could use some more detail also.

The textures used are interesting. I'd always seen lookfar as a slightly smaller, narrower boat with a sail. You might want to try the free water dragon from Sixus1.com for the dragon here, but I'm intereted to see how you finish this scene.

if this was done in Bryce, you could create a sphere primitive, and texture with Menno's Fire mat, comes in regular and blue..I think it's still in Freestuff.. If not in Bryce..well, I'm not sure..;)
