crow cordel

Description:

I got this great model from gulwer http://www.blendswap.com/3D-models/animals/blackbirdraven/ and used it to test a way to make a render looking like cordel

The thing is composed of 2 layers. One for the bird shape and textures and another to make the "bones" appear in front everything. It was a little hard to figure out how to do this in blender. I set the bird as completely refractive, and the refraction rays to zero. This way the camera ray will enter the bird but will not exit.

There is also an animated displace texture. The armature is useless because I used it just to see if I could do the render.

The license is set to give attributions because the model is not mine.
