I hope in IC8 we can render Videos in this Quality quick. Truthfully, I've been looking at the upcoming release of iClone 8 as a potentially far more cost effective alternative to Maya and am less concerned about the rendering capability. I figure between UE5 and Omniverse, there are more than enough options for cinematic quality rendering and since most programs being released recently all end up being pipelined between one another, it all comes out in the wash. Know what I mean? artstation.com/dreadmoormediaarts

Obviously continuous practice in evolving your art plays a massive role, but seeing how much more polished and cinematic I have been able to make my work with the advent of a lot of the improvements in the tools available through CC3 like the Headshot and SkinGen plugins, not to mention the vast improvements to my lighting capabilities and results between UE5 and Omniverse. It's been an amazing journey, especially coming from a guy whose student film at university was shot with a 16mm camera with a motor drive and some poorly made stop motion puppets. :D Here are some screen grabs and renders from my updated work... 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge 75% of original size (was 671x19) - Click to enlarge artstation.com/dreadmoormediaarts CC3 Daz Headshot SkinGen UE5

As I mentioned earlier, I kitbashed most of the clothing from the thousands and thousands of clothing assets I have acquired from Daz and Reallusion over the past few years, although there were a few assets that needed to be modeled from scratch, at which point I went straight to C4D or Blender/ A majority of the material tweaking was done in either Blender or Cinema 4D... as well as Quixel Mixer and Substance Designer and Painter. This is for a proof of concept, so I have been using methods in my pipeline that get the best results, within the quickest amount of time. If the pitch is successful then it will be worth spending the lengthier creation times in Zbrush to create far more source accurate assets from scratch, but I think I've been able to get pretty damn close using these methods and pretty quick to, all things considered. artstation.com/dreadmoormediaarts
