Hi guys,
I hope you are all well, things are good here.
I hope you enjoyed the latest update last week. I know Haley isn't the most popular character but she still needed her ending.
I've started working on the next ending which will be the Nikki and Karen's ending.
I played around with Nikki's skin shader to see if I could improve it. At the moment her skin can look a bit to much like plastic I feel.
Iray is supposed to be a physically based renderer. If you use physically accurate lighting and surface shaders you should get physically accurate results. It seems skin however is something of a black art, every character seems to have wildly different skin shader settings so it's very hard to know what is "right". Anyways, I just played around a bit, I think my changes are an improvement, I'll let you guys decide. Here is the old vs the new.
Old
New
Not the best lighting conditions but that only seems to highlight to weakness of the old skin I think.
So what was left other than to make this weeks 4k renders with Nikki and her new skin?
Looks good to me
Well that's all I have for you this week.
Thank you all for your support as always, take care out there.
