"Hartbreaker" Variant Release
🕑 Added 2023-07-22 21:00:03 +0000 UTCHey all, here's the variant for Hartbreaker that I mentioned in Thursday's post. While I was working on my original vision for this piece (an underground race meet, inspired by the Fast and Furious film franchise), I drafted this alternate concept. I really like how removing the other cars and changing the backdrop to an outdoor location gives the piece a much more intimate and sensual feeling, which contrasts nicely with the more provocative tone of the original version.
I also did two otherwise identical versions with different post-processing again. The first image is the "softer" version, which I feel works better for the setting and tone. The second image is my more traditional "sharp" look, which I used as the primary look for the garage variant, as I felt it better complemented the harsh fluorescent lighting.
Anyway, not too much else to say. I'll see if I can try to sneak in a quick render before the end of the month, Summer weather and schedule permitting. And thanks for your support <3
And, as usual, the embedded images in this post are the 4K downscaled versions. You can grab the native, full-rez 8K versions from the MEGA archive :)
