Time to show a wip of one of my latest projects. I am currently working on
the Greek hoplite. Greaves, shield and spear are finished; helmet is in
almost finished state; tunic has yet to be modelled. This image uses Sam
Benge's textured fog macro. The landscape is not yet finished either.

Very nice! Close-up shots of the items would be cool to see as well when they're
ready!

Thank you both, Stephen and Christoph. That is why I showed this wip :-)
Still, there are little details to take care about, apart from the hoplite's
outfit of course. However, overall, the scene will not change much.

Indeed. However, the figure will be also good-looking from closer up.
Although that might be a dangerous move to make :-)

I like it. Very minimalist. :)

State-of-the-art. Rendered in my own POV-Ray Poser figures testing room
(beta 40).

Thanks, Bill. Minimalist indeed. Which I like best for scenes. Somehow, I
often go much beyond that... :-)

Haha, it looks like he's naked behind the shield!

The spear need more weight(volume ?) at its base or it is too long to be
held like that: the wrist will get too much effort from the torque.
Leggings and no shoes, interesting for a warrior with a spear.
(just really impressed, so looking for the details in denial ;-)

Well of course I knew that many ancient cultures didn't bother with much in the
way of greaves or cuirasses or even loincloths... the perfect coverage of the
shield just amused me :)
Although I have to say, that was a google search I approached with some
trepidation (not to mention some looks behind me)

Of course he is naked! ;-) As he knows some people might be offended, he
just uses his shield... but he is far from shy otherwise.

He is strong :-) In RL they used even longer spears, up to 5 or 6 meters,
at least till Alexander's time, handled with both hands of course.
Not really visible here is the bronze ending at the base of the spear.

Thonak you, Sam. Your textured fog is doing a great deal towards success :-)
I found it interesting to note that the scene looks better with textured fog
*not* used for the figure's textures. They become washed out. So, one has to
experiment and select the best options. Which is OK of course. It's all the
fun.

I envy you for your skill in doing simple and yet effective scenes. I do
always end up with something that is getting too complex and ends at
some point on my stack of unfinished business.

Thank you, Ive. I must confess that many of my scenes end like yours, while
I always dream of simple scenes. Somehow they get more and more complex imo.
The art of "leaving-out" is not really easy :-)

Here is the latest wip of the hoplite, using POV-Ray 3.7 beta 41, and the
latest Poseray beta.
Skin is multiplied with a (non-corrected) tan color. Interesting to
experiment with rgb and srgb here to see the differences and chosse what is
best.

Thank you Paolo. The upper (re-enforced) tunic is going to take some time to
model, especially to get it right in the Poser Cloth Room. Sandals too are
going to be a brain cracker :-)
Note that the present image is a tiny bit darker in the newsreader, compared
to the original as rendered by POV-Ray.

Using FlyerX's code for fake Fresnel specular (in ng povray.general). The
code is used for the skin, the helmet, the greaves, and the shield. Uqick
and dirty as the specular parameters have not been adapted individually for
each object, but the result shows clearly how it works.
