Stylised Renders
Added 2019-04-15 06:43:07 +0000 UTCHi all, I've been thinking. Every now and again, between renders I play with my character's skin settings. I do it between every render and always go back to what I have originally. I'm stuck between going with a stylised art like the glossy skin I make now or something more realistic. I'm not sure which I like the most.
I'm reading up on techniques used by professionals and things now and might give semi-realism a try (translucency - light coming through the thin skin, ears etc, veins, pores, things like that).
I would like to know what you think. As an artist, I'm always my own biggest critic. I've focused a lot of time on an outfit the last day or two that I think looks really good and is probably one of the more detailed ones I've created, so I should have more detail in the skin to compliment it, surely?
Maybe I try it for a while and if we don't like it, I go back to my original style?
Anyway, let me know :)

I like your idea here. Love to see a sample comparison down the line. I would love to see a comparison between the old, old with less gloss and the new one.

2019-04-17 21:16:16 +0000 UTCI agree with Moober. A more realistic look is better, although realistic looking skin is hard to achieve. Also your models, Forged, are quite nice as they are, already.
2019-04-16 17:18:16 +0000 UTCPersonally I prefer a more realistic look. I've noticed lot of 3DX characters tend to come out looking almost like plastic Barbie dolls, which isn't really my thing. I haven't really had a huge issue with the skin textures and shaders you've used in the past though, I think they often strike a good balance. But overall; the more realistic looking, the better, in my opinion.

2019-04-15 19:06:42 +0000 UTCI think the more realistic you make them the better, I follow a few that you would have a hard time telling if it were a drawing or a picture of a real woman.

2019-04-15 15:35:03 +0000 UTCI agree with the A/B comparison shot, but you can always try it and see how it turns out?

2019-04-15 12:30:57 +0000 UTCI'm down to see it. Give us your best and worst. Because it's all subjective.

2019-04-15 11:41:56 +0000 UTC3dx is never about realism only ! From my point of view this art depends on creativity and bringing imagination to reality. The real art is to mixing pure reality with pure fantasy!!! , very small example : crating very realistic beautiful and sexy feminine girl as a (hermaphrodite) which do sexist in reality but not as (futanari) from fantasy. in short a character has a feminine cock looks very real and very detailed that force Straight sexually person to feel stunned turns him on!! people who love 3dx never look for realism only ,

2019-04-15 06:55:01 +0000 UTCMaybe show a couple of comparison renders like A/B testing? I think I would lean more toward the realistic over the glossy...
