Thanks for your cheers !!


Pionier, for the lighting we have not used things very complicated, only standard 3DSmax lights, two or three-point lighting its enough to do the job. In terms of compositing, we usually start by having a good beauty as a base and a shadow pass, and some render elements to complete the integration of the shots...

Stay tuned we are working on a making-of,

Here some turnarounds for waiting :

Oups sorry for the delay ,

@3d-dade:
The fur is rendered with hairfarm renderer and vray, it's done without HairFarm 2.0 (and the compatibility with Vray).
