The Super, Legendary, Epic Voting Thread Polls Are Closed!

Summer is here (at least in the northern hemisphere)! It is now summer blockbuster movie season. Along with the blockbusters comes the hyperbole and many breathless adjectives and adverbs!

The artist's goal is to create an image, or images depicting any of the three adjectives used in the challenge title: Super, legendary, or epic. Super could be as literal as a super hero, or a depiction of someone, something, or a profession that is super to you. Legendary could be a legendary or mythic figure, place or event; even if the figure, place or event is real, it is possible to take on a legendary status, such as the invasion of Normandy or the first man on the moon. Epic could mean a scene or event epic in scale, or zoomed in on a moment in an epic event or scene, thus establishing a more intimate connection to the world surrounding the epic scene or event. An epic event or scene could be grounded in reality (present or past), be sci-fi or fantasy based, or something else entirely. There was no requirement for the artist to pick a specifiv catergory- It could be anything.

Artists were required to use Carrara to set up their scene and render it in Carrara unless they used a third party plugin to render the scene, such as Octane, etc. Postwork was allowed. Artists were also required to use either a metaball object or Carrara's dynamic hair in the scene. If they wished to use both they could, but it was optional. Metaball objects once created, could be converted to vertex models if needed.

Extra special thanks to DAZ 3D and Naomi for sponsoring this challenge!

I highly suggest you check out the WIPs. Many of the techniques for using hair and metaballs are unique to Carrara; however, things like lighting, framing, composition, etc. can be very universal. There are many talented people that enter these. There is a lot to learn. Do not hesitate to ask how and why something was done!
