Days of Yore (CLOSED)

Back to the classics with this regular "Damzel in distress" epic! Imaginary pulpe Days of yore cover, starring Red Sonja-like Ilarya in a brand new adventure. Will Ilarya succeed in killing the infamous beast of the swamp or will she and the princess be eaten alive? Formidable suspense!
Humble tribute to Weird Tales, R.E.Howard's short stories, Frazetta's illustrations and Heavy Metal magazine.
The challenge was stimulating for I am not still plainly familiar with cgi. I wouldn't say it's my first shot though but I'm a mere hobbyist. The preprod was fun and the prod exciting. But it was the postprod phase that was really amusing. It's all about lighting, tuning up the colors, using brushes and adding layers to simulate glows, wakes and other details. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I had pleasure to craft it. I add the layer-free render as reference. Greetings to you all!
