I have pressures from reality to not do this work, that's all. Sad for me..... ugh :)<br /><br />Oh this work? Time? Hmm, if I was to start from scracth which means to design the chracaters, paint thrir faces and their clothes (imagine painting a flat map of the world then wrapping it around a globe) etc it would take nine hours.<br /><br />But when I am really tired I spend time making characters - like a puppettteer would make characters - and so the boy and girl have been Hansel and Gretel, Rex is a character I have not used before I don't think, but I made him a while ago to experiment with using a cloth rope texture instead of his chain mail.<br /><br />The ground is one I use a lot... so that is premade.<br /><br />The lighting for the scene and setting the scene up (like a stage) is about three hours - rendering the scene (takin a picture of it with my computer) can take ten minutes to five hourse (depending on complexity and how soft the shadows need to be) and post processing on photoshp cab be ten minutes to an hour perhaps.<br /><br />But keep in mind once I have set everything up then I can generate multiple images from different aspects and change the light etc quite quickly.<br /><br />Sorry to ramble. How long is a piece of string? :) :)<br /><br />Glad you are working up your software images so well!Andrew Finniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08877768852340470022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6618045567487829932.post-7964204045724384742010-09-30T17:46:48.426-07:002010-09-30T17:46:48.426-07:00Vanilla!
