Notes:
This started out as just a test render to check out the product Lamia by Sixus1 that I recently purchased from Renderosity. I then added some elements from another set to it and decided I really liked the result so I started building a setting around the figure. I was going to add some Greek looking warrior statues (Medusa’s victims) but I rather liked the piece where it features only Medusa. Too many added elements would take away the focus from her. I’m rather happy with how this turned out.
Technical Notes:
I once again used Colm’s Render Studio 2014 HDR lighting as the basis for my light setup in this scene while also adding depth cue and atmosphere to the scene. The raw render is actually quite flat grey looking so I took it into Photoshop and that’s where the scene came alive. I used several adjustment layers and actions along with a plugin to create the final scene. I also enhanced the eyes with a glow and added a rose colored gradient with a mask to distinguish the figure from the background a little more.
