When in doubt .. throw in a dragon for confort ... bewildering beasts
always draw the crowds.
That wyvern... massive. I scaled it down to fit this render. If I use it on a full-scale scale, it needs to be from a distance. But this is why I run the tests, so I know what I can use and how, and no nasty surprises at the last moment.
This is one of those things I'm starting to consider as canon events. Something that happened when the MC was younger. I still need to make a proper young MC model for these things, early to late teens, give or take. And then make a proper render about this.
One problem when using male characters is that many skins don't suit younger characters. Mostly because most of them have stubble painted on them. And matching skin can be difficult. But luckily, there are changes when we age, so it isn't too harrowing if you can match things reasonably closely. Either that or I switch to black and white renders for "flashbacks." Although, I need to find a better shirt for the young version. Ah well.
Then there is this. I wasn't thinking of what to render over the weekend. I did what I was in the mood for. And this one, and the one following, is one of those things. I wanted to render a shaman in front of a fire. Had a few orcish assets, so tried them out. Worked nicely. Although, I did some post work on it to make it look like this.
And this. I've had the genie asset for a while. Over a year, I think. I'm not entirely happy about the cloudy tail but can live with it.
There are unexplored beast romance for the next game, do not be so worried, will ya?
