A study primarily focusing on color. About this time is when I begin realizing that I need more color in the figure. Up until now, the figures have had one material and one flat color. I've been trying to add color through lights only and it works to a point, but the figures need more color, and I need more control over it.

This study was focused on pushing color and an experiment in dealing with edges. One of the things I like least about 3d is how everything is so edgy. There are no loose, ephemeral edges, blurring into the underpaint. Here I attempted transparency on the edges to give them a sketchier feel. I don't like the result, but it has potential.
