GLBJust a Mugshot - 45 - 135 (CLOSED)
70
I just want to throw in a useful tool using reflections to make rendering the typical character mugshots easier.
It uses reflections, so it fits the contest - at least in letter. Not that this here deserves to win anything, give the splendid entries. Thanks for that, I enjoyed browsing them. The creative part here is minimal to non-existant - but perhaps it is usefull, which may count a bit. I found it so
So here comes the main entry: a single body mugshot using one character and three planes, two of them as mirrors at 45 and 135 behind the character, which gives us 5 angles to the same object, usually a standing character or a head.
Just using standard rendering settings except for the dimension. I enlarged this to reach the minimum size for the contest, as the main purpose of this is to get an overall impression of the characters body, face and hair, not showing the fancy detail.
Using Tri-X "G8.1 Sweet Madison" here, with standard body and textures. Her character textures tend to be great when rendering closeups. I included a full set of the mugshot (slightly smaller) in the next message with Tri-X "Teen Eleanor", which is available with Renderhub.
Other products used are:
- annbird927 - Geometric Tiles Vol 1 - GMT Pre3 - for the floor
- zoro_d - French Twist Hair
- xtrart - X Fashion Clut Harness Set 01
- Bobs - Mirror shader
The 2m measurement pole pushed in the center (using 10cm marks) is from me.
The full mugshot setting is made with a generic character for G8, G81 or G9. I load it, replace the character, and push it into Renderqueue. Takes perhaps 1-3h for five images, depending mainly on the selected hair. Usually I do none for the mugshot, but that looks kind of unaesthetic. A closeup of a face or an angled shot of hair can take longer.
If there is interest I may release the setting as freeby via renderhub, but actually you can just put up the two mirrors and place an object near the center - you will get five reflections from different angles. Works also with cars or other props.
Thats it - my first forum contribution

Here a wireframe, just to remain within the rules. Not much to see, actually... but you can see the three planes.

And here the output of a typical full mugshot with 5 images. Renderque automatizes that to the point where I just have to push in the character, adjust head and breast for height (face is parented, so it always fits) and then collect the images later. It helps to have two computers for this, which I don't 
Character: Tri-X Teen Eleanor G8.1
Sorry, forgot which outfit she uses. If somebody needs that info I will dig it out. The rest is as above.
Body shot, as above, just slightly smaller:
Head & Hair
Face (not actually much mirrored, but part of the set)
Chest
And a final shot from slighly below

I just realized that I bungled up the angle.
It must be 153, not 135. I fail to see where I can edit a posting, so if any MODERATOR could be so nice to adjust title and text of the first posting?
Angling the mirrors at 45 and 153 degree will give you the five-angle view from a single character.
As this forum also drops the small degree-circle (though edit still shows it) this intend may not have been clear. Sorry.
