Thanks Jirard!
No post processing used.. just straight from the render.
Here is my WIP if you like to take a look at my settings.- 1

He really was like the Van Gogh of music,
so many of us creatives can identify with his struggle.
You pour your heart and soul into your craft and it doesn't
always get recognized.
Best quote in the La Times article:
“VW does it again,” and “Now when I think of VW, I think of Nick Drake and not Hitler.” 😂 😂 😂 -

That could be a Nick Drake song title.
Always learning something from ya!.. never heard of Nick Drake before but giving his music a listen.

Been hard to decide what to work on for the Fall 2020 Image contest!
But think I'm settled on this awkward guy.He is something I sketched up a number of years ago.
Every so often when I rifle through my hard drive he resurfaces
and I think it will be cool to make him in 3d, but then get busy with something
else and he gets shelved..... again.So anyway... here goes the more serious attempt to bring him to life.

So many fun ideas that take so much time to make.- 1

Nice models Jirard!
Like your character design and modeling.You have plans to use them in an animation?
: )

After Effects and Premiere were used for some compositing and glow.The Vimeo link plays at better quality

Thanks. Yeah, I knew her for 32 years. It was pretty ironic that she had such a great voice for this character. We made six episodes together before she passed. Currently, a friend is doing her voice. she sounds quite different but she is working out well.
Your commitment to a single animation theme/story is admirable Chuck.
I'm bouncing around with animation and ideas all the time.

This one is actually a project that my late girlfriend and I started almost ten years ago. she played the voice of the fox and since she passed almost three years ago, I put it on the shelf for a while. My brother convinced me to finish it as a tribute to her.
Sorry to hear about your girlfriend Chuck.
Sounded like a good partnership.

Very lovely. The little fracture lines are interesting.
How did you do those?
Thanks Robert!
For the crystal colour used a gradient with celturb to get faceted mixing.
The fractures are a Scales bump.. there is another bump projection map texture for finer bumps. -
Playing around with some more crystal renders
some green for that kryptonite look.Rendered a separate flat shaded pass of the crystals
to add the glow effect in photoshop and the usual PS tweaks. -
I'm a fan of sketching ideas and making storyboards before animating.
Here is a rough animation created in Adobe Animate before I started on the 3d side of things.
was a fun and quick way to play with animation ideas.- 1

Looking cool Madfox!
Interested in hearing what ominous music will go with the animation. 🎶
I've always been a fan of "Rachmaninoff Prelude in C Sharp Minor" used in the
game "Dark Legions" from back in the DOS days. -
Cool stuff!
Now I'm going to be humming that song all day. :P

That is an interesting idea. I've never done anything with translucency.
It worked out on the scarf as well...
I'd like to try using transluceny with some tree or plant foliage sometime. -

Ok think I'm finished now.. couldn't sleep cause I wasn't completely happy with the fur.
Also wanted to add some translucency to the fur which gave it more edge lighting.- 1
