Trying out some new datasets and new techniques…

EDIT:  Jim asked for some more details, and I already had some images that I intended to post, but forgot about.  So here’s a breakdown of the three layers used to make the above image…

Chameleon rendered layers

The left layer is an environment map lookup, the middle is a front lit with high opacity, and the right is a backlit with low opacity.   These were then additively composited together.

I also did some tests on this dataset with clipping.

Chameleon culled with spherical gizmo

Chameleon culled with box

The box culling was an accident, but I thought it looked like a cut of meat that had been chewed on by mice.
