TITLE: Sad fairy NAME: Luis Alberto Silva COUNTRY: Portugal EMAIL: luis_silva2001@yahoo.com TOPIC: Fantasy and Mystique COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING JPGFILE: fairies2.jpg RENDERER USED: 3DSMAX 3.0 render engine TOOLS USED: 3DSMAX 3.0,Rhinoceros 1.1 evaluation & Poser2 HARDWARE USED: PentiumIII650,128RAM DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I created the mushroom in Rhino and then exported it into 3DSMAX.I did the same with the fairies created in Poser and started to create the camera and the lights. I intended to use a flat floor but I had the idea of triyng a new plug-in called Grass. I added the tree, that is a cilinder with some noise,and the background that is a picture of a forest from my digital photos collection. When i was almost ending the picture i found an option called V-Post and i used it for the first time..Result: the magical powder of the fliyng fairy and the glow of the two characters. In the gran finale i made the gamma & contrast correction in 3dsmax and exported the image to Photoshop to resize it to the actual size.And tha..tha..that_s folks!!
