playing with all fibermesh settings I can and breathing life into an old base mesh

Thanks very much.... Spiritdreamer, chalkman and KC-Production your comments are very appreciated

very happy with it I actually really beefed up the leaves and branches using transpose which worked surprisingly well! but the leaves lost a bit of form so i re fibermeshed them got some great looking vermilliad style plants growing on the main trunk and have made a turntable which took nearly 8hrs to do one spin.... in bpr render.... the effect though is awesome the shadow on the trunk of the leaves is amazing!! I love it....

my day job is a mural artist and I paint a lot of jungle trees.... I could easily get addicted to tree rendering here!!

here are a couple or renders and the turntable... hope you like.

My friend Dan makes dance music... I designed this for his single releases and then made heaps and heaps of renders styles so each release can have same theme but different colour, here are some of the covers... his music can be heard here.....

WOW EarthTriber...

Those are all Excellent..

My favorite, just for personal reason and taste though...at the moment anyway LOL ..is the one with the light green background..third down...It just has an elegant look and feel to it..the subtle color and design variations in that one go great with the flow and rhythm of the piece, and really enhance it's elegance...But like I said, they are all Great..Awesome in Fact..

Keep Inspired and Inspiring EarthTriber..

thanks guys!

the headdress was made just by using the zsphere sketching brushes brought out a few years back....
i always felt they would become a common site the effect they leave but people rarely leave it that raw....

seems now my time in cheap hotels plug sockets and experimenting with fibermesh is at a end ....

i now head to the beach to work on some canvases.... time to paint the jungle!

[earthtriber]

a quick one done for a friend in Melbourne as I travelled through there this is for stomp dog the band.....

[earthtriber]

new piece in progress... loving 4.4 you guys are amazing

thanks for the leather straps.... planing to complete the hat correctly now i worked out my technique......
but all in good time this model has a long way to go!

bit of transparency on the goggles hard to get the right blend of shadow v transparency here to see both well...

love the woven shadow... exciting to do this i know i will push to get this model to be my best yet!

this is inspired by a crew of people i saw in Borneo on my world wanderings this year!
