Seasoned veterans seem to have secrets to a more perfected render that new artists can't hardly dream of. Check out the procedural texture work that this week's winner has demonstrated in his fabulous render.
How, then, can you too qualify for this award? Please have in mind that this award is reserved for those that are on par with or that excel top notch works published by artists and studios. If such work does not appear during a given week, this award is not being given to anyone. So please submit your best work to www.blenderartist.org or to the Member's Gallery of this site, or Contact Us to show where your work is available on the internet. It doesn't have to be a Blender render, internal or Cycles. Any other render engine is fine as long as Blender was used as a part of your workflow.
So, it is with great pleasure that www.BlenderNews.org introduces to you the winner of the Render of the Week Award for the week of March 3, 2014: Miguel Porces.

Artist's Comment
About Me:
My name is Miguel Porces, I'm an artist and an illustrator, and I've worked with 3D for more than 20 years.
About "The Winter"
Every day I go for a walk. Sometimes there is some image I see, that touches me, and this was one of those times. Then I've tried to recreate that feeling in 3D.
