Wow, you modelled this yourself? Thanks but no thanks, I already have a sign.

I've seen him before...  But he wasn't white then...
Possible?
If so: anything changed since then? (Except the color)

Nice model, although it looks like it's blue-screened into the scene.  :)

Rasiosity?

Sure.  I put a copy in p.b.s-f.  It doesn't include the uv mapping
because that's a new thing I've been working on.  BYOS (bring your own
stripes).

Yes, I had an older version that was normal orange colors that I
rendered in AM and BMRT.

I added teeth, a tongue, made the eyes blue, and of course added the
cool pose and snarl. :)

Yes, it really helped bring out the details around the mouth.  PP focal
blur was used as well.  Here's the global_settings:

global_settings{
ini_option "+QR"
  post_process{ focal_blur{ 100, 30, 4, 1} }
  radiosity{recursion_limit 5 brightness .8 gray_threshold 0.5 normal
on}
}

I had to raise the gray_threshold to keep everything from looking blue.
It also increased the warmer colors on the shadowed side of the tiger.

There you go again. Amazing
How did you model it Hamapatch, animation master ( I have never tried that
one).

What stuns me the most is the way the texture is applied. Do you have any
special technique.

Something off though : The picture looks composed. Is the background rendered
in the same picture as the tiger ?

Mike, are you akin to Mike Miller ? <grin>

Thanks, I got plenty more things to show off.  My harddrive is full of
cobwebs...

Modeled it in animation master.  The main part of the texturing is image
maps applied with uv vectors for each patch.  This requires some uv
mapping mods that I made to MegaPOV, something I haven't released a
binary for yet.

Creating the uv vectors is pretty easy in animation master.  You just
flatten the area you want to apply the image to and overlay the image.
One click and it's on there.  To get these maps to work with POV are a
little more complicated though, as you can't have any overlap.  The
completed model can then be exported using my export plugin which writes
bicubic patches in .inc format.  The one I currently have available
doesn't write uv vectors but a future version will.

> Something off though : The picture looks composed. Is the background

It's all in the same scene but like I said, I'm lazy when it come to
backgrounds.  It probably looks funny because it's just a plane and a
heightfield with a bunch of noisy texturing.  The post-process focal
blur probably doesn't help either.  Oh well, I need to work on making my
scenes more rounded I guess.

> Mike, are you akin to Mike Miller ? <grin>

Wow, there's a complement.  Nope, no relation. :)

Strange! I do the same thing sometimes.

You don't have the insight on upcoming features that I do. Rasiosity
is one of them but I will say no more about it until the time comes.

He didn't know, so that's forgiven.

Very nice.  If you ever get a chance to see a white tiger, don't pass it up.
They are beautiful.  Here's a photo I took of one at the Audubon Zoo in New
Orleans several years ago (they also have albino alligators that look like
they are made of white chocolate).
