年賀状イラストの制作
Making of the 2007 Illustration
 
2007年の年賀状イラストの制作ギャラリーです。3DCGソフトのCinema 4D R10を使って2006年12月に創った。
 
柔軟性のため、それぞれの部分を別々にレンダリングして、Photoshopで合成した。
 
印刷用の最終解像度は約2000x3000ピクセルなので、画像はウエブ用で縮小しました。例外は「Sun Pig」、パラシュート、と4匹のイメージ。その2枚は最終Photoshopのファイルから取ったので印刷解像度のまま。

Perhaps a bit too much fur?

This is a gallery of images from the process of making our 2007 Year-of-the-Boar New Year’s Card illustration. I made this in December 2006 using the 3D computer graphics software Cinema 4D R10.
 
For flexibility I rendered each element separately and composited them in Photoshop.
 
The final file for printing the postcards was a little over 2000 x 3000 pixels, so I’ve reduced the image sizes here to something more reasonable. The exceptions are Sun Pig, Parachute Pig, and the 4 extra boars; the renders shown here were assembled from the final Photoshop document so they’re full size.
