Rendered for a number of reasons including the website at the bottom that mentions CG.

At least try and make it a bit harder, pointing directly to a cg forum doesn't help.


Doesn't help that the image and thread on cg was on digg yesterday.

I considered saving the image, clipping out the author's name, and uploading to file site... but decided I couldn't be bothered ;)

When video games only have one face in them that can take a day to draw with no background.

The fact that there are so many straight, defined lines gives it away, especially on the clothing and eye sockets.

I love these threads when a GOOD picture is presented. Then you have everyone coming out of the woods giving their "expertise" on why it's rendered or real.

Rendered, but a pretty good render. The only things that look out of place to me are the eyes, and something about the bridge of the nose strikes me as odd.
