Learning learning and more learning YAY. Yup here we go: this ended up being a render where i tested a few things all at once. My poor laptop cried xD First being eyes. I always had an issue giving them a reflection effect. Either nothing would show or it was too 'glassy' and be totally over powered by the world background or whatever light was facing the model's face itself. So while this is another experimentation, i did want to give a shout out to WondrousMoogle for helping me out with it. It's been such a big difference, thank you! Now.... the grass. FINALLY! I always wanted to do a picture with grass but i have no idea where to begin with actually painting on brushes in photoshop. I haven't found a decent tutorial that applies to the work done with renders like this. But regardless, another shout out goes to NightysWolf for helping with the grass. My computer was ready to blow a stack with it, but i was determined to try it at least once. ^_^ ... editing it to fit the picture was no easy task though and i know even that's not totally perfect, but you know what? Thats what practice is for. To learn and get better.

Now then all that out of the way, onto the good stuff. YAY Ignis!!! He looks nice without his jacket. Boy probably gets hot with it on. And well, the less clothes the.... nevermind xD He's rough because im still working with these wonderful guys (who are NOT up for grabs. Sorry! Don't ask.) but thats okay. I like the way this little thing came out! I wanted to do something of him out doors, walking around (heaven knows he walks around enough when trying to take a photo! GRR lol). I always had this mental image of him walking around with one eye on Noctis, looking after him and making sure he's alright. So maybe that's what he's doing here.
