Hello everyone !!
As usual, unfortunately, I have to apologize for thelong time since my last posts.
I had messages from people asking when I’ll be able o post new images so I needed to give some news.
I’m working a lot at this time. The end of 2011 was crazy and 2012 is starting in the same way. It’s good for me because I was a bit worried that some of my clients bankrupped like in 2009.
Hopefully, they stayed ok and I was able to work for them.
And as i’m learning new things in 3D I have new clients, so actually, more work than before.
But I promise, I will go on with my 3D men.
So here’s a test with a new render engine of Blender, called Cycles.
Cycles is a photorealisitc engine. I’m working a lot with it for my pro images. It’s quite amazing how it’s reproducing the behaviour of light digitally.
So I’ve made few tests and arrived to this, this afternoon.
I created a new shader and I think it’s reproducing quite nicely the human skin, even without SSS.
But to use Cycles, I’m compelled to resculpt the details of the model in Blender. I don’t think it will take too long but the results will be great when it will be done.
I was not convinced by the skin shader I used before. I guess with this, and Cycles, the new images will be very cool !!! 
I attached to the render a reference image.
The veines on the 3D guy are just test to see how it will look. Same thing for the texture, I’ll have to redo few things.
Thanks for your patience, and I hope you’ll enjoy this little render.
More to come as soon as I can.
Alex
