Showering Down and More

Hey there, everyone!  It's finally September and summer is slowly winding down in my area of the world... I type that as the weather report from an hour ago said it felt like 100 degrees here. 😅

I hope that you're all doing well and staying safe.  Thank you for sticking with me for another month.

I also wanted to thank you for participating in the poll last month.  It was quite a sight to watch and see four of the options, at one point, ending up tied for first place!  In the very end Brock vs Ryan won out, so that's the pairing I'll do first.

I've been working for the past week or so on a brand new Muscle City Arena.  Much of it has been rebuilt from the ground-up.  It isn't quite how I picture it in my head, but like with the old one, I'll gradually adjust it and improve on it over time.

I took a bit of a break today to try remaking an older scene (Showering Down) with Iray.  I didn't change too much about it, just the lighting and some materials.  I'm unable to do wet shells with my current generation model and this engine, but upgrading that is something on my to-do list for later.

Sometime last month, I also updated one of the Supercar Studs scenes in a similar way.  I was a bit close to not posting these, since they were just tests, but a good friend encouraged me to, so here they are. 😄

Also, my friend Perfect Slam was working on a male slingshot bikini clothing prop and told me I could include his test render (tothevictor.png) with this post if I wanted.  I have a feeling I'll be using that wrestling gear one day for sure...

Thanks for reading this far!  And thank you again for your support, guys.  I'm going to be starting work on the boxing match itself soon.  If there's some time left at the end of the month, I'd like to do something else for you, too.

That... about covers it, I think! 😅  Before I keep rambling, I'd better finish the post here.  Take care, everyone, and have a great weekend!
