No attempt to do a background so they're against the sky. Just wanted to see what kind of results I get with 2.0 so just play.

Added a background and redid one of the characters... The vanity needs a bit of work and different materials applied to the different meshes..

Also just noticed there is some kind of poke through happening on the shoes of the character to the right. Doh!...

Thanks. It's nowhere near in the class of some of the experts on here like ElBloko, Rikk and Tony but I think I hit low end game quality. I still don't understand how to get displacements or speculars to work properly.

Dan, you might have a long road ahead of you as a 3D artist - and a butt-load of work to make this image into something... but do not lay a finger on your taste in music. That, my friend, is perfect right where it's at.

Dan,

If you were to attempt to do backgrounds, you should consider doing ones like the attachments.

They would be quick to put together, you would really be able to utilize Octane's strengths, and they would have that serious WOW factor. They would also provide excellent settings for your figures. Not to mention tons of material to use as references. I just googled 'gothic forests'.

That would be sick!!

best,
O

I'd toss a couple Sony Walkman™ cassette players on them and put them on a swing set or teeter-totter in a rundown park setting with Fall foliage. These gals are post-punk, not hardcore goth. A park would be way easier than a late-80s mall or a record store, which would be my first choice.

Maybe outside a fluorescent-lit 7-11? For more of an 'electric' feel. Slurpee cups, glue bags, dumpsters.

"Post punk", "hardcore gothic". Sure. For me it was all under the umbrella of "high school".

Of course, I was more into the mod scene...with mucho vespas and lammies, but now we're getting into semantics!

Frank. Thanks man. I'm well aware I'm an amateur at the bottom of the totem pole. But it's all good.
