Large version of a banner I'll be using for a few non-deviantArt projects in the near future.
Smacky and Master Wendell are Genesis, Eri is V4. Rendered in DAZ Studio 4.5, postwork in Photoshop CS5. Slight painterly effect added using Filter Forge and Photoshop.
I really love this. I look at all your Smacky work and enjoy it greatly, but due to having very little time I don't often comment, but I just had to say something when I saw this one. It's all so perfectly done, from the movement to the posing to the expressions to the postwork. I absolutely adore what you've done here. And as someone who uses that hair a lot, I appreciate the work you have done just to tidy that up and make it look so perfect. This is an instant favourite.
Thank you very much, I'm really glad you like it! You do a great job using that hair too, and I'm sorry I don't comment often either (mostly because I see your pics at Rendo and rarely comment there). Much appreciated!
That's very kind of you to say. I don't comment at Renderosity nowadays either so that's totally understandable. Your work on here is such an inspiration to me and I always enjoy seeing it.
Filter Forge is most useful for helping with creating textures, not so much for postwork. I used it a lot in making the gorgon's snake body texture in this pic (warning, violence and nudity): [link]. It's really a texture maker's tool more than anything else, and I would recommend it if that's what you need to do.
