Editorial Idea: Bear Baiting

Had an idea for an editorial on Bear Baiting, because of this article:

Bear Baiting

gonna work on the sketch now, and hopefully, will be able to scan in the rough shortly...


ok... have discovered i can fake a moose, but not a bear - they keep turning out looking like much-loved teddy bears - and thats not where i want the piece to go.

SO.... im trying something new. i posed some moose & a bear (moose - content paradise and the bear came with poser) in Poser, and am importing them into Vue.

I set up a terrain and worked with it until i was happy, then rendered it out and saved the image.

I then imported my moose and the bear, put them where I wanted, and added a fence from Cornucopia3D to the image. I turned off visibility on the landscape and the ground plane overall, and each individual element as needed and rendered them out, saving each one along with their alpha mask, which Vue creates automatically.

import into photoshop and composite everything, then using the wacom and the pencil tool in photoshop, "ink" it in... and treat it as i would any piece.

ok... so its my plan outlined. i may deviate ;) =D

anyways... back to doing this =D
