The White Tower v8 new sun position

[Zairyn Arsyn]

been distracted lately, just recently i found out from a co-worker i was eligible for free student versions Autodesk software because i work at a university funded scientific laboratory.
so now i am learning Maya 2012,
i am also trying city engine.

maya[n] 2012 hahaha

i changed the position of the sun... could easily change it back if i wanted to
should have another one out soon... something a little different, and quite large.

C&C welcome

Perhaps more light to make the sun side of the objects pop more. It appears to be washed out. I have enjoyed this series so far.

Hey zaai,
nice image you got there, but i agree with njeneb about the lighting. Up the sun intensity just a notch. I hope "sun intensity" is called, cause I've never used terragen ^^.
I ended up on this forum because I was looking for a natural environment solution (checked vue also).

I strongly advice you to give Softimage a try also. In my opinion is a lot more straight-forward than Maya is and at least as powerful. The relatively new addition to Softimage called ICE is a monster. Check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do1kzR6gVYk&feature=channel_video_title

I wish you good luck in your new quest in "traditional" 3d

here is a very large (3840x5760px) render of the tower complete with labels, specs, and info.
a later version will probably feature some some cross-section drawings shower the interior of some parts.
