Artist's Comments

That sunny dome ! those caves of ice !
And all who heard should see them there,
And all should cry, Beware ! Beware !
His flashing eyes, his floating hair !
Weave a circle round him thrice,
And close your eyes with holy dread,
For he on honey-dew hath fed,
And drunk the milk of Paradise.


- "Kubla Khan", Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Damn.

I've been working on this piece off and on for the last few months. More off than on, really, since it's never really clicked with me in a way I was happy with. Been arranging and rearranging it for a while, until I got this configuration a couple of days ago. Then it was time to tweak the ice shaders.

Finally got a decent render, pulled it into Paint Shop Pro and started working some post-working magic... And well, damn. I love this piece.

Rendered in Daz|Studio with pwShader. Postworked in Paint Shop Pro X.

Oh, I bet you're so relieved to be done with it!

I like that the reds you used are so 'cool', it goes with the blues well.

I like the cold glow from his eyes. Not just because it's "blue cold", but more on how he stares, it's chilling.

Nice job :thumbsup:

I really like this piece as it clearly stays clear of my idea of a bad digital piece. Theres no overly shiny armor and swords (which always looks fake an irritating) and the man is in a believable pose with believable features. As mentioned above, the armor is very interesting and its what draws me in to the piece most.

Well done :D

Thank you!

Yeah, doing metal arms and armor in 3D is a pain and a half. I've never done one like that that I really like, that looks like metal without being chrome.

Nice work, I like the armour and its colouring while the background is very well made.
