Description
So and just happened to to the market one day. Where they ran into a rather eccentric wizard called Kreb. Kreb managed with a slight effort of a mind control spell to convince them to come to his castle... needless to say the next morning Kreb had started his new dinner service.... Of course they are in a cycle of bliss so they aren't really complaining

suggested a plate at one point, I am working on chalices and a few other things at the moment. I did the plate differently than the shield. In this case Kreb wants some eating surface after all even if the adornment is lovely The original plate is pretty cool but it had a specular map that would have caused trouble and the material would not have matched up with what I use. For those who don't know a specular map produces a reflection based on an image, so if you had an image with a child in it... it would reflect it on every reflective surface using it... it isn't to realistic so I use ray tracing for reflectance... which takes the room lighting and objects into account... and reflects realistically. It can be a problem for render time but I think in general it is worth it.

After I applied my silver material I had to put the pattern around the edge of the plate back with a displacement map. Still refining that but it looks better than an utter smooth surface. I'm going to work on the shield to mix that up a bit... All and all this was a great learning experience I had to create a pose for this to make it all lock together on the plates....

So I built the two plates with the lovely ladies at full size then scaled them down... which necessitated some camera work in workshop that was fun... a nice close up in the end

Despite all of that I was able to pump this out rather quickly from 's suggestion to reality...
