What happens when you are the only Anambrarian Vampire?

You Do Hair cool


So whilst the Isis is rendering, with notin else left to do ,I duplicated the original model, sliced her up and modified the nose by adding a prominent bridge. I also squared the chin and gave a dimple.

She know possesses a knowing smile and I am trying to make her look like Hela, Thor's deranged sister....

Take a look at this disused asset: A transformer snake.

According to the artist who happens to be a programmer also, the snake was discarded for the film....after spending a month making it.

Chai

To think it contained 3590 parts. I don't know if this x an exaggeration but its mind boggling keep in track of all those parts.

I saw the rigging too. The snake can transform into any sports car sef even a petrol tanker... Chai

OK...done with all the skin shaders. Now testing light setups. And thereafter over to Maya for the rigs.

I textured my tentacles without much fuss.

What did I learn with this project

- Arnold Renderer is the best but I don't know how to build skin with it

- Corona has issues with Displacement textures in 16bit.

in building a skin, u got to understand these
- Subdermal color:
Color of the subdermal skin layer. This layer is normally more red-orange ( muscle , blood and fat ).

Subdermal weight: How much the dermal take place over the diffuse

Subdermal radius: How deep the light can go true this layers

dermal: the skin beneath the skin....lol

I want a Charuscuro effect with the lighting. I decided to go off HDRs. I am aping Caravaggio's method.
by the way Caravaggio is a long dead artist of the baroque period. A Casanova and a Murderer buy simply talented, if only hez alive to see how his works were heavily priced and guarded with laser

CultureThe President's Brain Is Missing And Other Mysteriously Mislaid Body Parts by nijabazaar(op): 2:38pm On Nov 22, 2017
Who stole JFK's brain? It has been a mystery since 1966 when, three years after the president's assassination, it was discovered that his brain, which had been removed during the autopsy and stored in the National Archives, had gone missing. Conspiracy theorists have long suggested the missing organ would have proved Kennedy was not shot from the back by Lee Harvey Oswald, but from the front.

The latest theory puts forward a less juicy cover-up – James Swanson, author of a new book on the assassination of Kennedy, suggests the president's brain was taken by his younger brother Robert, "perhaps to conceal evidence of the true extent of President Kennedy's illnesses, or perhaps to conceal evidence of the number of medications that President Kennedy was taking".
Kennedy is just one of a number of famous people whose body parts were taken, either for good or dubious purposes. Brains have long held a fascination, particularly for people wanting to study the secrets of the intelligent, talented and powerful.

After Albert Einstein's death in 1955, his brain was removed and studied by pathologist Thomas Harvey, much of it sliced and mounted on hundreds of slides, many of which have been lost. The Moscow Brain Institute collected and studied the brains of many prominent Russian scientists and thinkers, most famously that of Lenin.


When Beethoven died several years after Haydn, and with the interest in phrenology still booming, there were similar concerns, with one gravedigger
claiming he had been offered a thousand florins to "deposit the head of Beethoven in a certain place". However, the composer didn't escape unscathed – during his autopsy, one doctor took his ear bones, locks of hair were clipped, and when his body was exhumed later in the 1800s, fragments of his skull were taken.

What is reputed to be Mozart's skull – tests have been
inconclusive – is held at the International Mozarteum Foundation in Salzburg; it is his skeleton that is missing, since he was buried in a grave that was dug up and reused some years after his death in 1791.

Napoleon's body parts are also thought to be scattered – intestines allegedly belonging to him were held in London and destroyed during a bombing raid during the blitz, but his penis is believed to be owned by the daughter of John Lattimer , a New Jersey urologist (he was also the doctor brought in by the Kennedy family to review JFK's autopsy evidence) who bought it at an auction in 1977.

In some cases, remains turn up years later. In 2009, two of Galileo's fingers and a tooth were rediscovered. Removed by admirers, rather like holy relics, 95 years after the astronomer's death, they had last been seen in 1905 before resurfacing and being brought to the Museum of the History of Science in Florence. The museum, now called the Galileo Museum, was already home to another of Galileo's fingers.

Working on the skin shader...
itx The blender version. I not using my previous skin shader. want something new.

I am yet to try materials for the accessories.


Discovered that the intensity if the light affects the skins reflectance and glossiness. And that you can lose ur Diffuse weight if ur SSS specularity z too high

And I decided to unplug my normals and see what will happen.. ..I lost the pores and pimples.

.So I am working on Displacement map instead. Blender 2.79 nightly build has a wonderful PBR network


I am not good at Make up...

meanwhile check put @somto_ace work...

Decided to remove the Egypt eyes....

I redefined the eye a bit and add the lower eyelash.

I cancelled a previous texture paint with Genevieve's face. It came out somehow huh
Perhaps i couldnt get a high resolution or just not properly inspired grin

So I am going back to the hand painting, the one that i am used to.

I think I am going to start signing my work, even the WIPs...just saw it somewhere, on anoda person's IG collection without even an acknowledgement embarassed

Check this work by a very fantastic tutor of mine. The very one that keeps berating me about my Eye shape. I hate him most times. But I love him all the time for his mentorship grin

Seriously, the site's design is so 1230 BC enough to put one off Mathematics . ...lol

What's x worth done well x wort done well.... esp in this era.

This site reminds me of my Nigeria maths textbooks compared to an American math book (brought home by my brother) circa 2003

The naija version x so dry with shriveled examples while the Yankee version was as colorful and cherry.


Such things do matter esp considering the fact that mathematics is the language of design.

I will research further into bruised metal looks for both Corona and Blender.

I might still work on the tentacles If I am still inspired....I am getting disenchanted a bit.

LiteratureRe: My Musings On Dan Brownz Origin by nijabazaar(op): 1:38pm On Nov 13, 2017
Dan Brown is now a a fluke.
He should borrow a leaf from the duo if Douglas Preston And Iincoln Child.
Even Chukswrites can give him a honest tip or two.
Hez really a Fluke. A Crass one with this latest piece
LiteratureRe: My Musings On Dan Brownz Origin by nijabazaar(op): 1:35pm On Nov 13, 2017
The Dan Vinci code was extremely successful. it provoke hundreds of thousands of reader reviews.

a shelf full of published scholarly responses hoping to cash in on some of the money it was generating.

It inspired guided tours of Rome that were, for years, more popular with tourists from all over the world than any other way of seeing the Eternal City. Surprisingly, it turned positive attention towards Catholics. Contrary to the book's intentions

A whole sub-genre of thriller fiction – in which a modern-day organisation with deep historical roots will stop at nothing to prevent its darkest secrets from coming to light – exists and thrives now almost solely due to this one book.


Authors who strike that kind of gold no longer need to care about the small change of producing actual literary quality.

They know – Brown surely knows – that the most their fans and investment brokers expect from them is more of the same. Slight variations are permissible – Langdon’s companion is not called “Ambra Vidal” in every book, for instance, and he isn’t always legging it around in Spain – but actual inventiveness is beyond these writers and would be bad for business even if it weren’t.
LiteratureRe: My Musings On Dan Brownz Origin by nijabazaar(op): 1:29pm On Nov 13, 2017
With Origin, therex this lingering sense that Dan Brown feels pressured to pen a book, to keep*up with the fad and to be scornful of reviews .

many as 14,000 film critics could decry in unison the next Avengers movie, and it will still go on to gross $2.5 billion with another billion in Merchandising.

Likewise, Tom Clancy or Danielle Steele never agonised over a bad review.

And the reason in both cases is the same:

these products, for all their glossy veneer, are packaged nostalgia.
Their power comes not from their technical or aesthetic accomplishments, but from the fact that millions of their customers have fond memories of their predecessors.
LiteratureRe: My Musings On Dan Brownz Origin by nijabazaar(op): 1:08pm On Nov 13, 2017
The only Intriguing character in the Novel is actually disembodied, inanimate... lol

The other characters are at best mediocre or downright flat . Prince Julian and Amber Vidal are so predictable and easily forgettable.

Kirsch, a crude Elon Musk stand-in, is a specialist in game theory and computer science, and he’s always been a glamorous iconoclast.

In the opening chapter, we see him climbing to a mountain-top sanctuary in Catalonia to talk with a trio of Christian, Jewish and Muslim leaders he sardonically thinks of as “The Three Wise Men”.

The atmospherics of the meeting are predictably theatrical – “The wind whipped harder as they arrived at the ancient stone edifice. Inside the dim light of the building’s entryway, the air was heavy with the thick fragrance of burning frankincense” –
a fitting backdrop to the bombshell revelation Kirsch intends to drop on the world’s leading religions at the Bilbao meeting, to which he has invited his former teacher.

Brown fans will be able to predict the rest with an extensive amount of accuracy: Kirsch’s grandiose plans go badly awry, and suddenly Langdon and a seemingly obligatory beautiful young female assistant (this time called Ambra Vidal, not that it matters in the least – the two words of her name are the sum total of the personality Brown bothers to give her) are chasing after clues to identify a killer before shadowy religious organisations manage to stop them.


Dan will make his few millions but chunks of my respect for his work has gone to the dogs.
