    Investigating Pan today, I'm not sure how to use the primitive passes (the hair ones) in post work. Any ideas welcome. :)

    Bit of hand colouring in the second one

    'Pan and Nymphs'

    'Pan, the Nymphai (Nymphs) say, dances badly and goes beyond bounds in his leaping, leaping up and jumping aloft after the manner of sportive goats;

    and they say that they would teach him a different kind of dancing, or a more delightful character; when he, however, pays no heed to them....'

    from http://www.theoi.com/Georgikos/Pan.html

     

    Carrara render passes. I rendered out a few different light positions so I could access the highlights I wanted,

    Eg below

    Headwax, excellent Phantom. Could he have done with some eye detail ?

    Something different from me - Filter Forge - Acrylic paint filter.

    Actually, I really liked the lack of eye detail.smiley  But I agree, it is an excellent rendition of the Phantom.

    hey Bunyip, thanks, once again you are showing of filter forge beautifully. Especially like the sky tree and legs in this one,

    oh the lack of eye detail is a reference to the original writer illustrator who took his influence from Greek classical statues (Greek?) that had no pupils - hence his white eye mask - but yes eyes would be interesting !

     Thanks UB, that's very kind, for the eyes I was referencing the originalwriter chap.  

     

    Falk explained that Ancient Greek stone busts inspired the notion of pupils of the eyes of "The Phantom" not showing whenever he wore his mask. The old Greek busts had no eye pupils, which Falk felt gave them an inhuman, interesting look.

    Hello Headwax, was wondering why you did your render that way, makes sense now.

    Stezza nice Phantom render as well.

    Camel render from me. Filter Forge - Old Book Illustrator filter.

    Hya Bunyip, well this one looks like an old French work from Aegypt :)

    Here's another treatment of that last image. Forgot to say it's PhilW's Sopwith Camel - restructured.

    Using Waterlogue app amongst others.

    HW - that airplane scene blows me away.  Will have to check out the referenced app.

    Stezza - I recently saw the original first two Phantom serials.  Your Phantom really captures the mood, as well as the look.

    Bunyip - Nice camel.  Yeah, you convinced me to get Filter Forge.  Playing around with it today.

    I just threw together a quick test scene so I could play with Filter Forge. I was too rushed to even search for a good DM temple scene for the setting, or to parent a sword.  Just want to play with my new Filter Forge toy!!!!  So here is a simple G2F with Carrara dynamic hair and the Cavewoman jungle outfit from the Daz store.  Put a simple bigradient in the scene backdrop and lit with a different bigradient in the scene background, along with one distant light.  Also used a shadow catcher.   This is a combination of a couple of filters.  The straight render is mixed with the watercolor, 4 color blend, and artification.

    thanks Diomede, great to see you have aquired Filter Forge and thanks for posting here!

    Love the textures on this and the gradients. !

    In the black and white one - is the backlit part a Filter Forge action.?

    The waterlogue app is on both ipad and win 10 - cheap as chips last time I looked :)

    Bunyip - Great camel image, love it!

    Head Wax - Great image - I thought I recognised that other sort of Camel!

    Diomede - love these, especially the color one!

    If I were feeling pedantic I'd point out that dinosaurs died out around 64 millions years before there was anything resembling a modern human, but I'm feeling generous, so I won't mention it...

    But @PhilW, it is probably that the bio-engineers are going to make some dinosaur-ish animals for us to hunt in theme parks.

     

    Thanks, HW, Bunyip, and Phil for the comments.
