A Fantasy

[bobbystahr]

Well this started with me checking out a Rich2 artifact problem and realizing I couldn't help as I'm a lower ver. but the basic clouds were inspiring so I clipped his whole atmo and loaded into a blank scene and tweaked it to where it sits now, created a SSshader/FracWarp mound and then decided to use a bush from Lightning way back who's leaves I'd changed out and turn it into a tree so scale went out the window hence Fantasy in the title. A Dune grass, grass-5 was also popped in addition the the gigantic White Mallee. It's a W I P so C&C welcome.
I may scale down the bushes and take a camera into the grove later today but off to a jam now.

It has a surrealistic feel.

Thanks Ulco...when I doodle that's what usually slides out.

I absolutely love the clouds in this one! Terrain and veggies well done! Great image bobbystahr!

The clouds are recognizable as being from the clip, but I do not take credit for creating it.  It comes from the Preset file available on the Planetside website.  Knowing that you are still using a less than optimal computer, I can't imagine the render time.  It took over 3 hours for atmo alone  on my usually fast machine.  I like the idea of the vegetation only on the outcrop - it is a concept I've been considering, jut not yet gotten into.

Well of the 4+ hrs that took 3 were mainly sky...odd I didn't recognize the atmo from the presets as I've test driven all of them...

Stormy weather . . . The strong backlighting and foreground ambient light make an unearthly combination. Nice.

Thanks, that's the word I was looking for earlier.

Well TG4 started losing my cameras in saved versions so eventually I reset the entire scene, slightly different...here are the 2 views,
to wit the distant Main Camera and the Hilltop Camera 2
