On the other hand the left girl's right foot seems to be partially stuck IN the
ground...

Other than those minor details, good picture. HIS facial expression is
impressive ;-)

Great work.

WHAT? Criticizing my work?? Shame on you ;-)

Thanks, Christian :-) Still a lot of tweaking to do and additions to make.

It got a bit out of hand indeed... Especially *small* Adamastor got into 
a very nasty business...

Nobody asked, but I shall tell nonetheless:  :-)
The stonework has been obtained with the displacement feature that comes 
with (the latest) Poseray beta. I was experimenting and got these results.

Looking better but something needs to be done with that green top. It 
looks as if it has been through the wash too many times. ;-)


reinstall some libraries.

I agree. Something that needs more work. Cloth parameters are tricky to 
get right. Already here, stretch resistance is fairly high (the params 
are mainly based on silk) and the hem is narrower than the top. Still, 
the result is not totally satisfying. I continue working on it though.

By the way, the latest Poseray solution for dynamic hair is quite 
satisfying (cylinders instead of sheets). I am working on a beard and 
hair for my Beggar and the main concern now is to get a satisfying 
texture. I shall show some results soon.
