Gah! Almost out of time... :eek:

Here's the cave textured:
19243

19244

It's photo sourced, and you can tell I rushed it. But I really like that Photoshop lets you load in the model (OBJ format) and directly clean up the seams. :)

Gonna be a rush to do the teeth and Lurker... probably no time for a render. :(

Crud, I think the time is up. Here's a quick screen grab incase I don't get the final version up before Nez sets up the voting:

19245

I'm grabbing squid, elephant, and plant photo reference material to create the texture for the Lurker, I'll continue posting updates if it's ok with you guys.

Looks like I'm not going to be able to get the Lurker painted tonight. Here's a render to use for the contest judging:

19247

The Lurker ended up a bit too plastic looking and needs a specular map, but I'm pretty happy about the water. :)

Alrighty, I think that's it for me tonight. I'm going to get some sleep and finish this up another day. Thanks for the support guys! :banana:

Great job Jack, I like what you did manage to get done in the last day or so. The lurker may not be finished (great shape though!) but the cave looks great, the water amazing and your lighting is very cool.


I'd like to see/hear a bit more about your cave texturing - especially when you said you can take the obj directly into photoshop - that sounds very handy (albeit a distant dream for some of us!).

Hope you manage to get the lurker finished off too in the near future - it's nice to see a scene from you as you've been so busy working on stuff for everyone :D Should also make a good advert for Yafaray render too of course...
