Experiments.A

A bit of a paint effect.

Also, Blender has really fixed some things. Firstwise they've gone ahead and created the "shadow catcher" as a kind of object. Thanks be to the Dutch rendergods. 

I've gone ahead and joined the $10/month Blender Cloud services thing.

The original right out of Blender.

Desaturated somewhat in Photoshop. Boy, the effect seemed more extreme in Photoshop.
