For this weeks contest I have decided to give the Ash Mirage a try.
I used this image as my reference.
To make this project I started out with a simple golem model I had in my poser12 library. Poser 12 is the 3d software that I use to do all of my works, you can get more info here:
POSER12
I used two balls for the eyes, and I added a special texture to them to make them glow.
Next I added a animated flame particle to the mid section
Then I added more flames to the legs and arms
For the finishing touch I added a molten rock type of texture to give him more of a realistic look. I had a lot of fun putting this together, it took me a couple of days, I am just glad I didn't get burned out lol.
