Praguiem: Test Render
Praguiem: Test Render

So after all day of testing shaders and researching of colour keys I think I’ve found the right tonal composition. I should admit that I found  lectures with Bjorn-Erik Aschim really helpful. I feel that characters are standing out of background quite well and more saturation of their dress makes them almost glowing.

So after i have figured out the way how to render out passes in our work-flow (Maya 2008 linux64) I can finally start testing some compositing. This is one of first tests so the quality is not there yet..

Artist's Studio - line work - test scan

So after couple of hovers with pencil work this picture has came out. Perspectives are looking great but it could be seen also quite distracting… But don’t forgot that there is going to float just a small frame all over the picture and so far the complete picture is not gonna be shown..

Well, the renders from maya would not be working properly if I didn’t transform them in to a panoramic picture. It doesn’t look well, but it works..

So after couple of hovers I’ve came with this picture. On this one is a change in some details which were wrong in previous stage. At first I’ve though that shadows were not enough dark and secondly there were on wrong positions. So I’ve fixed the placing of them and then found out that a [...]
