    I'm sure we're all well aware of how nice everything looks in the darkroom with a lamp or two on it, and I decided to see what the best possible results I could get were, I'm just awed at how great Source lighting can look sometimes, and how bad other *cough* times. I took 150 pictures and these are some of the best. And only the first few are exactly the same, they get much better after that.

    So to start off a few simple ones.









    I just love the shadows, nice and smooth.




    Samus's face is a little bright, but just look at the tone and depth of Fangs face, it's great.



    And this goes to show that the nasty mottled skin of the HL2 citizens isn't all there is, the mix of smoothness and detail is sweet.



    And a little less harsh with the light.



    Another angle. I love faceposer



    I dig how the eyes turned out.



    Anyways there are a hell of a lot more of these but this is as far as I could manage to narrow it down. If for whatever reason you want a full size of one of these let me know (hahahahahahaha).

    Now see, that's a little ambiguous, but I'll assume you mean that you began laughing uncontrollably.

    Edit: Confirmed by rating. Honestly I can't blame you, but at least it's not a sex pose or anything.

    Very nice dude, does anybody remember that shadow tutorial that was on fp like 1 month ago about source engine shadows and all the things you needed to type in the console to get detailed shadows? Anybody have a link to that?

    Yeah, I used the console commands on all of these, helped a ton. I think that thread should have been stickied.
