GUARDIAN OF THE TREASURE!

Having just purchased Codeman's Octopus,
I had to do something with this incredible model!
He is a massive complex model, but thanks to the 50 (!) poses supplied with him, it was
fun to
pose him, in his "garden"! The garden is a morph-able rock den with this
beautiful material, also
supplied in this model package!! (highly recommended!) This model was posed in P3 (yes it
is for
both P3 and P4) and post rendered in layers, in Photoshop 5. The watery look was created
with
photoshop's actions - "rain" and then distorted. A lot of work was done on each
layer, EXCEPT
for the octopus himself! I only smoothed out a couple joint lines where the legs join the
body/head!
This IS how he looks with his map and bump that come with him!! Wow!
Doing this image also lead to "sort of" morphing zygote's free treasure chest to
open.... which
did not quite work out, but photoshope post render is a great help! I was able to open the
lid,
but not able (without tearing my hair out) to separate the fancy latch it has!
