Hello, everyone!
I want to show you the new project on which I worked in my spare time.
This is the fantasy world for my forester creature.
For the fast rendering I used:
4*Dual Xeon e5 2670 2,6 GHz - 128 Threads + 1 Intel Core i7 4930K 3,4 Ghz 12 Threads.
on the Forrender.com
Render time - 58min. Noise - 3% - enough for the final image
By the way, who will give the promo code - cgevent to our forrender.com managers - you will receive a 15% discount for render.
Making of:
As soon as Corona 1.7 was released - I was interested in a new Shader for the hair and skin. First I created the Forester and you saw that I had with it. But then I wanted to try to do a real person. Sculpting from scratch would take a very long time, because you need to work out every little detail. And impatience to try the new shaders have led to the fact that I downloaded all known Emily from the WikiHuman for my experiments. Since it was set up under Vray, I immediately converted it to Corona. Then created from scratch the Shader of the skin, added a few missing textures and during the experiments got what I wanted. But it wasn't enough for me and in the end I created a full hair and the new lighting, had added the small hairs on the skin, eyebrows and modified eyelashes. So - I got what you can see in this renders.
Rendered on the Forrender.com with 6*Dual Xeon E5 2670 - 192 Threads - 2.60Ghz. Time - 10min. Noise - 3%
Hello everyone! So, while I prepare the new ideas for my project "The Forester", I decided to create something cute
And started the new W.I.P. with this fantasy animal 
This is DogSheep - sheep and dog hybrid. In fact, it is very convenient when a wolf attacks a herd of sheep - this creature can save them.
So, In this WIP - I used VRay Next, Ornatrix, Substance Painter and 3dCoat. When the full project will be ready - I will upload the full video making of. Enjoy
Hello everyone! This is Shido creature from my project "The Forester". Very soon I will upload the videomaking of here and in my blog,
Why I named it - Shido? Shi - Sheep, Do - Dog.
This is crazy hybrid of sheep and dog
As you can see - I created two different variants, because in reallife we have 2 types of sheeps. First time I created one type, but Ornatrix in Maya inspire me to create the different type of fur.
Hello everyone! This is my new asset for UE4
model
Last time - I played a lot in "Life is Strange" and watched stylized refs, cartoons, etc., etc. I got sick with all of this and wanted to create something of my own. These rocks are just the beginning. In fact - I have a huge project, the concept of which is ready, but I don't want to show it - I want to keep an intrigue.
I sculpted this rocks in 3D-Coat, then make fast retopology and then created handpainted textures in Substance Painter with my new method which I'll show next time in one of my videos
Then when model was ready - I imported it in UE4 and created a special shader with witch you can setup object blend with ground, turn on parametric snow or moss and add lava cracks
Polycount - 5 613 Tris.
Watch video to more details and enjoy

It was in this forest that the sheepdog creature Shido was born, at that very moment - when the sun lit up this dark and forgotten place, the grass began to germinate and the crystals revived again.
On the images we still see how they are covered in cobwebs and darkness is still present in this forest, but it is the green shoots that tell us that soon it will fully come to life. Shido was born from such a crystal.Perhaps you noticed that the bluish glow is slightly inclined diagonally. The idea is that this glow rotates then clockwise, then counterclockwise and at the time of imbalance - all sorts of creatures are born, which in addition to Shido - you will soon see
Software used - 3dsmax, Corona Renderer, Substance Painter, 3dCoat, Polybrush, Megascans, Forestpack, WorldCreator, SpeedTree

Hello everyone!
So, after when I finished the Josepth hairstyle - I decided to create the full girl character and say "No" to mannequins
But I wanted to focus my time for hair creation and don't want to spend many time to character creation from scratch. So I used DAZ3D for basemesh creation, because usually - my clients give me the characters and I working only with hair, fur and etc..
When the character was ready, I made some changes in 3D-Coat, painted the all textures in Substance Painter and imported the character to Marvelous Designer for cloth creation. Then I made some simulation with the pose and comeback to Maya to create the hair with a new Ornatrix v.2.
When the all model was finished - I rendered it in Vray NEXT.
Rendered on the http://en.forrender.com
That's all
Happy viewing!

This is my new grooming work
I noticed an interesting moment
During the creation process - 3 hair works with Dayeris hair was uploaded to the Artstation.
I want to warn you - I didn't have a goal to repeat the Dayneris hairstyle. I was simply inspired by her, as I am a big fan of Emilia Clarke in this role and the “Game of Thrones” series and I decided to show my vision of this hairstyle. Because I don't like the version that was in the 7th season .. Especially the the temporal part. Perhaps the creators of the series will see this version and use it in the season 9
The all hair was created in Ornatrix
I’ve used the Draw Guides Tool to create the brows
And for braids I’ve used Braid Maker from Aka Tools - https://goo.gl/K21jZ8
The images was rendered on Vray.Cloud.
Creating a hairstyle took 10 days.
Happy viewing!

Making of coming soon...
Meet, this Lydia - the princess of love and pleasure. She is from the planet Satistar. Race - Lovelis. The inhabitants of this planet have a green skin tone, there are no eyebrows, eyelashes, and the skin is absolutely smooth - without pores. That is, by sight - it’s like some kind of mannequin. But don't you dare call her "Mannequin", or she unleashes hell... If you make her angry, then from a princess of love - she turns into a princess of hell. When these creatures are in love, their hair is folded into hearts. With her own eyes, she hypnotizes the idol and thus takes possession of him. Even if he (she) flies away from this planet, the princess will come to him at night.
I used Zbrush for sculpting, Blender for the rig, Maya+Xgen+Arnold6GPU for rendering.
For hair - I used XGen, for rendering - Arnold Renderer 6 GPU with 2x2080Ti(NVLink)
Grooming - Ornatrix
Render - Vray 5 GPU with 2x2080Ti(NVlink)
For braids, I used Braid maker, then converted them to hair with HairFromMeshStrips operator

Rendered in Unreal Engine 4.
Hair polycount - 40K Tris.
Hair shader from Robert Ramsey - https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/stylised-hair-shader
Btw, I didn't transfer the vertex normals from the sphere, because I like the result without them.
This is my grooming project for Benjamin Deutscher - https://www.instagram.com/bend3d/ which I did in Maya with help of the Ornatrix and rendered in Arnold 6.2 with GPU mode on 2x2080Ti(NVLink) in 2020.
The project is still in development and this is just a teaser of full-fledged cinematics, which will also appear soon.
The main task was to create a girl with dirty stylized hair in a cartoon style, but at the same time not quite cartoonish and close to reality.
Frizz on hair little bit different than in my lookdev scene. This is a Benjamin decision.
In this video, I show a small WIP teaser from the cartoon + render test in Arnold 6.2 on the new NVidia Studio drivers + a little making of and demonstration of the Ornatrix object with all the modifiers and settings.
Content:
0:00 - Teaser-cinematic
2:34 - GPU render test of the new Arnold 6.2
10:16 - Demonstrating what the hairstyle consists of.
Benjamin did the rest of the work.

This is my personal project, which I did in my spare time from work. I used Ornatrix in Maya to create the hair. Then I exported everything in Ox Alembic format and imported it into Unreal Engine 4.26.2 using the Groom Plugin.
Haircount for this video - 120K and 70 CV points per guide. I didn't use LODs for this scene.
I'll show you soon how to transfer it to Metahuman. I still don't like how DoF works on hair and what happens with sampling. I am trying to fix this issue with Epic Games. I created a topic on my blog. As will be the answer from them, I will add it there. https://charlytuts.blogspot.com/p/unreal-engine-4-groom-plugin-alembic.html By the way, in the same place - you can see the render settings.
