Materials, Contrast and Light
Using this futuristic figure as the perfect excuse I focused on experimenting with the different behaviours of very reflective materials (latex, golden and silver metal and skin) under two different light ambiances.
I used the colder, more neutral front light to represent the materials respecting their “true” color and playing more with cold-warm effect to generate the contrast. In the back side of the model I used a more saturated light effect, and Played mostly with values of the same pinkish tone.
