miniture render test from Arjen Klaverstijn on Vimeo.

I’m always trying to achieve a sort of miniture effect by rendering simple characters in a realistic way. This is another experiment.

I never tried working with the mentalray shader mia_material_x but I’m really pleased with the outcome.

After my exam I found some mistakes that need to be taken care of (nitpicking me). After I’m a 100% done I’ll post the final movie and some progress videos of the composites! But for now some stills! Enjoy!

p.s. THE FOUNDRY’s NUKE ROCKS!!!

My very professional superstar girlfriend Lois van Baarle drew the logo mascot. A stylish and detailed 2d rendering of Manfred, scary!!
