I dare you to rip this image. In fact, I want you to. Do it to show yourself how pathetic you really are. Show it to all your friends, claim you made it. Spam it to hundreds of wallpaper websites without giving them my contact info. C'mon, you know you want to.

Due to recent piracy problems I felt the need to make this image. More than one person has made profit from images that I gladly share for free, and it's getting on my nerves. All I ask is that people do not sell my images, and link to my original DA pages as credit to me and `delya, but apparently some people don't have that respect. If you ever see this image anywhere without a link to my user page ([link]), I give you permission to go Hulk Smash their asses.

Based off a drawing by , which you can find HERE. You can find a .gif comparing the two HERE.

Make of it what you will.



Technical Details

Made in Maya, rendered in Mental Ray 3.4. Lit with bright objects and final gathering only, no lights. Every surface in the scene is a custom written shader except for the ground object, which is a Maya Blinn shader. The shader on the skin is similar to the one I wrote for Love Juice and Shake Your Booty, except this time I started from the ground up and redid it. Modeled mostly with polygons then converted to subdivision surfaces later for more detail control, then converted back to polygons for rendering. The only part that is NURBS is the paint cans, which needed to be NURBS so the shader I used could do anisotropic reflection blurring (similar to the way a DGS shader does). The paintbrushes used real geometry for the brush hairs, which totalled out at about 500,000 polygons for each brush. Why would I do that? Well, I ask you, why not Pushing ridiculous boundaries that I don't have to in teh first palce is what I'm all about!

Anyways, on to the pictures:

Here's a couple screenshots from inside the maya viewport: Paint, more paint, splattery.

Here's a couple detail shots of the brushes, so you can see all the crazy geometry detail: EXTREEEEME!, Top

Here's a wireframe shot of his head: Wireframe

Here's the lighting setup: Light Boxes

Here's teh render layers: The Dude, Brushes, The Background

And look at this, IT HAS AN ASS!!: ASS!
