I_m not sure what could I say about this one. Idea for this came when I was playing with different atmospheres in Vue, at 2 o_clock at night, and suddenly remembered that I meant to try to put something up for this round. I wanted to keep this Image peaceful and dreamy, so I tried to use just couple objects, each having mostly transparent (or reflective) surfaces. It anyway ended up lookin much colder then I originally meant it to look, originally it was pretty warm and more softer. That water doesn_t maybe look too much like water, but hey, it_s "dream" water ;). DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Head was modeled in Imagine. First I created somewhat coarse model by extruding edges & faces and moving & joining points. then I started adding details to it by fracturing single faces and moving points . When the head looked good ( And after I finally managed to get that qute nose IMO ;) of her ready, and understood that it couldn_t even be seen well in the picture ) I fractured all of her faces once and smoothed them ( Her forehead looks still a bit too straight but I hope it_s not too visible. ). Eyes are two fuzzy spheres using basic smooth noise with some turbulence. The man is just a simple poser 1 model gone trhought some smoothing and cleaning in Imagine. Object in the background ( I don_t know what should I call it in english ) was done with Lparser4, modified a bit & optimised in Imagine and imported as dxf into Vue 2.
