1/3 photo
1/3 poser
1/3 z brush
Mix well with Photoshop
( strangely enough, this will be hanging in a bar,… maybe)
hey friend…
i must say your compositing have many problems…(you forget to delet the hole in his right leg…and problem in resolution…focus…shadows…)…sorry…
i hate the face models of POSER…they dont look realistic…
good luck…
Hey Bicc,
You do have a few things to work on but I am liking the overall image a lot. As to the Poser face. I mean what face? lol Hes a Ninja! He doesnt Need a face! 
Try this on him. Take your burn tool and play with the area his eyes are in Or use the Saturate brush on that area to bring it on out. I think I would darken the foreground and him also. The background is looking unfocused in the right way as it should. And I wouldn’t worry about using Poser anyway. Good start! 
Tom
Many thanks for the tips.
should have mentioned still working.
Am going to put a real face into it.
Got excited and wanted to share.
Thanks for sharing, bicc, I like the colorful city lights behind him. What size will the print be? 50.
I believe the size needed was 16x20.
I ain’t paying so I don’t care.
Was asked for “nightscene” and thought I would
get creative, it was this or other “citizens of the night”.
Was pleasantly surprised he picked it.
As you will probably surmise, I cannot post the final,
but thanks to the suggestions I have made changes.
You didn’t ask however: fifty bucks and he pays for the print.
Ain’t bad for playin’
I agree, not bad for playing. Is that the roof of the bar? 
50.
Darn Ninja infestation in NYC… They are everywhere. Saw one in the office today. On it’s way to the 12th floor 
Lemo
PS:The Fellow has this ‘Dang, my suit ripped again…’ expression! Masterful!
believe it is the outhouse!!!
Also on the 12th floor back of quality assurance.
Are you going to blur background in the gap of his leg like the rest of the background?
I like the darkening of the face, but it seems a shade too dark.
Did you use your new camera for this?
…chimney sweep has a curious costume :lol:
For final one ( which unfortunately will not be posted here)
owner’s face will be behind the mask.
Background is altered photo not done with new camera:td:
Do the name reciprocity ring a familiar note?
Good part was not a lot of moving cars.
Fast ps regarding Poser faces, I do not mean to be
insulting but everyone knows you can take a photo and map
it to a poser model ( I am not talking about the “face room”)?
You can pose Michael 3 biceps bulging, etc with your heroic presence.
Fun part is that you can use zbrush for this.
If you do it right everyone will think you spent a year in the gym.
Mr. Pilou if you think the chimney sweep was bad, the original
suggestions were for “ladies of the evening” and “drug distributors.”
Must admit this is one of the few I’ve done involving graphics programs
that I have actually liked and will keep.
I dont really know too much about poser but from what I have been told it has major limitaions. However, I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s Ninja era and made my career around the influence of Martial Arts (Thai boxing) so your image is appealing to me.
It may be too late to redo the render but in photoshop you may be able to play with adding a slight backlight over the Ninja. In the last image he has been darkened a little and to bring his form back into the image with suttle but effectiveness, backlighting a form with a dark face works well. I like it.
Going back to poser, I downloaded the Daz studio a while back as it was free (and may still be). This was great for adding easy and quick posing and boneing of models with an average render engine. Poser costs money and the investment seems too much for the ammount of use I would get out of the programme.
Nice job
Matasorapit
Regarding camera, it works great, much better than I had
ever hoped.
This picture was not taken with it.
Poser, etc.
Image is not final.
Bicc 39 is not my name ( you didn’t guess that?).
Except for two people no one knows. Noone knows about zbrush, it is
a hobby that I play with and at the moment has only limited commerical applications because of my limited knowledge of graphic programs ( but I am learning)
In another forum I posted a work I had sold. If the buyer knew that
is was there, why buy it, when you can copy, paste and clone. So for
that reason the image I posted there was not the final image.
Nor is this. As a matter of fact in retrospect it should not have been posted
at all.
Chalk it up to excitement.
Buyer will get something basically different.
Also one good thing we can only upload 200kbs.
If the buyer does see it, can you imagine what a copied 200kb image would look like printed to over 16x20?
At Daz, you can download a free program called studio.
Also many of the models are free.
Don’t have the program Studio,but a friend of mine keeps telling me
it is great. So if the price of Poser is an issue…
On a lighter note, it’s the first time I’ve seen a roof engineer dressed in rubber.
First, anytime a thread of mine gets Boozy, it is indeed an
honor.
However, disappointing news.
Ninjas in New York are not organized, thus the suit
is not rubber as the specifications call for, but washable
latex.
Drip dry…
