LOL, there is always a dark moderator shadow behind me watching my posts.

Count yourself lucky - I have a full rugby team of them snapping at my ankles...

… can we see the wire Frame

Sure. ))

… can you say a little about the technique you meant!.

Now I`m on the way to solve all problems, but main idea is to use light and dark texture instead of putting above texture any shape with transparency. Sometime later I`ll try to prepare short tut about this method.

Valery,

The texture works great "at a distance", but the zoom doesn't quite work - only because I don't think would have the cloth weave running at such an angle and it would curve around the body. I guess this is a particular problem because distorting the texture would be tricky.

When I saw the distance shot I thought it was a photograph ….

Thanks a lot for compliment .
You know, I didn`t want to make an optical plausibility, because I`m sure that graphic must to differ from photos and create it`s own reality.
Some time ago I was inspired with illustrations (I attached cropped fragments) from old magazines and I think such way of drawing is very suitable for me.

Valery, who can disagree with the master?

Those are stylish examples indeed. I think that the difference is that they are clearly representations, while yours are so close to being mistaken for photographs - they would pass as photographs for most people.

It's all good and thanks for your explanation.

That is just outstanding an it is not easy to achieve at least for me.
I'm here eager waiting for the tut.
Congrats Valery.

Master was not capitalized. I think it might have a non-religious meaning (really, do you think, Gary? )

Exceptional image Valery. The rendering is incredible and the pose is charming with her ankle turned like that. You are a Master.

That`s a trial to explain my method of texture filing. Hope it is rather clear, because there are nothing new tricks.
Ask please any questions if you didn`t understand something details.

Amazingly simple and yet extremely effective.
Thanks Valery.
