Looks like these two are getting along swimmingly. :+1:
Sexy image. Not sure if her hair looks like it’s in water, though.

hair are definatly not right, pretty hard to achieve the hair look underwater, hard too make hair look nice overall, hehe …

I did try another CC with more blue to better get the water feeling at first look and more contrast … well let me know what you think, my eyes cant see right anymore :stuck_out_tongue:

Not really an expert on underwater environments, but I think that looks a bit better. If you could get some of the hair floating upward gracefully, too.
Maybe add some more reflections from the surface of the water. :confused:

wow awesome :smiley:
best picture for a long time here at zbc :slight_smile:

I like the first one more. it has more of a artistic look and looks more like a old painting. I also like the contrast between warm and cold colors in the first one. the second one is very blueish and looks monotonous.

Can you post some ZBrush screenshots? :slight_smile:

Looks like their eyes are open ? Thats kind of a creepy way to kiss!
Great image!

I like the painterly feel. :+1: Great art. I think a depth pass that gets darker and grainier ass it gets farther would help. I like the way you pushed the levels in the last one but overall the first one has more mood in my opinion.

Also would you mind sharing how you got such a traditional feel?

I think the eyes open is a nice touch and helps to add to the underwater feel, as a kiss underwater is never gonna be very sensual for the folks involved. It’s done more for the fun and novelty of the moment.

“Quick quick!! Kiss me! Before our breath runs out and we DIE!!” * gurgle *

I had mistaken this one for a photo.

:smiley:

Your abilities are simply amazing!!!

Hi! Check her fingers, they look as if they melted with his body, and havent got the right volume. However you did a great job with his left hand, if it’s high pressure her body shows it. Either check that or you’re made of stone :slight_smile: Further more: They don’t look like the’re under water, but if you want tem to, you’d have to sacrifice some amazing detail you created, with blurring, and more bubbles all around (even in between the glasses. Just a couple of thoughts, otherwise it’s breathtaking ;):+1:

That’s quite nicely done. I like the first one better. It’s softer and has more of an ethereal feel, imo.

amazin concept dud nicccccccccc

Great work.
Only the girl’s fingers on the man head doesn’t look completely right to my eyes,maybe the hair thickness is a bit too much or the fingers could have a pose more curved,they look a bit too deep in the head(MHO,maybe I’m wrong,maybe looking at higher resolution doesn’t look in this way)
Btw,it’s a wonderful work.congratulations.

Hey hey! Stop posting paintings! What do the ztools look like?

This is going to be top row for sure.

Only crits I can think of is the water is lacking some particles in it, and the skin is a bit too pink (water absorbs reds really fast depending on depth, thank you PADI!). But that’s just nitpicking. And you could add the caustic shadows from the water surface too. But that may take away from the painting too. Hmmm.

Hi, listening to your comments here what i had the time to do

Webhead- thanks dude, i did try some floathing hair i think its not 100% there but its better, i also add a new pass with caustic effect

Cral - yeah i think your right about the monotony but i was not satisfy with the first eather so i try a new one, kind of an in between and some adjustment on the skin to try to mimic more the underwater feeling, thanks alot for your words … ill post a screengrab of zb …

puzzle - thanks, well the guy eyes are close but not tigh and the girl eyes are open for a simple reason, when we kiss my girlfriend always kept her eyes open and have a tendancy to look at her right :slight_smile:

Aberrant - thanks, let me know what you think of the new color correct, i think its a good mix of both and the feeling of water is better . I was not pushing for a traditional feeling, but i think we feel it because i like tradionnal painting alot, it could be for some factor actually, the background color with lack of details, the blueish overall , the pose and the position of the camera …

remcv8 your words touch me alot, thanks i hope you gonna love the new update

cherub_rock - thanks man, i add some bubbles and i think it was a greaat idea, ill see what i can do for her finger later, theres already a lack of details overall due to the non reflectity of the skin, i saw some picture taken underwater with control lighting instead of flash that were pretty impressive, but i definatly agree that the underwater feeling could be better, i hope it is in this next update and im sure it could still be better

dustinbrown,manish kumar,renderdemon thanks guys to take the time to give me your tough its really appreciate

Thanks womball, sorry i was actually making a post when you post your reply, i just post the Z tool, you are right about your suggestion of undewater observation, i try to get the effect better in the last image, actually the image is probably 90 % 3D and 10% 2D, something like that :slight_smile:

Amazing and original work men. It seem very dificult to model a kiss between the models. Congratz

Now you’re talking! But I think I already gave you 5 stars :laughing:small_orange_diamond:+1:

Amazing. Top row material.
