We're finalizing the new features and enhancements we show in the presentation and have some others we are sure you'll like as well. Wh[...]
If you're looking to drop the awesome on some creature visuals, one person to look to is Dominic Qwek. Senior Cinematic Artist with Blizzard Entertainment with years of experience, he has the chops that make the visuals he publishes and the events he shares his knowledge at very popular.

KeyShot is your camera. It's a lot more also. We've built in the ability to add the geometry you need to get the shadow, lighting and effects you want without a studio set-up, prior to any post-processing and with minimal effort. This couldn't be illustrated better than with the images created by ou[...]
In September, at Gnomon Workshop Live, we had the opportunity to see how several 3D artists use KeyShot in their workflow. One of the talented young lads was none other than Dominic Qwek, a character artist who can work up a creature concept faster than you can carve a chunk of cheese with a meat cl[...]
KeyShot saves you a lot of time with simple set-up and speedy rendering, but there are other things you can do to make your visual creation go even faster.

We have textures upon KeyShot texture goodness spilling, nay spraying, out of our computer screens and we just have to get all of it into your hands. We had our latest webinar this Tuesday where the amazing Richard Funnell took attendees on a wild, bump-mapping ride through KeyShot textures, explain[...]
There's nothing like getting your model a little dirty... or, shiny enough to reflect the light of 1,000 suns. Either way, KeyShot has you covered, quite literally, with labels. We've recently had some forum posts discussing labels and how they can be used to create different effects. Since labels c[...]
