This is just a very quick small render of the dog, still in Maya, but with all the light settings looking pretty fine I think. I'm working out how i'm going render out the dog, lights and plane (with shadow) in different passes so I will have full control in compositing.
I found this very useful tutorial via What's On Media on how separate render passes should be layered in the different blend modes:
- Specular: Add/Linear Dodge (Add)/Screen
- Diffuse: Normal
- Shadow: Difference
- Reflection: Add/Linear Dodge (Add)/Screen
- Diffuse No Shadow: Normal
By tonight I should hopefully have rendered out every pass in HD ready to begin compositing tomorrow.
Update: Glorious HD...

Soundtrack: Nick Cave, Shane Macgowan, Kylie Minogue, Pj Harvey, Anita Lane - Death Is Not The End
