Lighting and Rendering: Attack of the Monster Cock.
For those of you in RI, here it is finally.
It actually ended up being a lot more difficult than I originally imagined. I couldn't find the composition I wanted for the longest time, this is actually the second incarnation of my rooster (remodeled from scratch days before it was due), and I was having so much trouble trying to get it looking right in Maya that it got to the point of, "Fuck it!" and decided to do a lot of postwork.
...It ended up coming out a lot better than I thought it would.
So anyways, full res under the cut. I also included an animated gif as to what I did to get the original Maya render (first frame) to what it looks like in the final. Hope you like.
And here's what I did in Photoshop. Seriously.
