Canyon Wall *FINAL* + Tutorial :)

[Tangled-Universe]

Already posted a WIP of this on Rendus3D and here's the final.
Way too many hours of rendering (~110 hours in total).
Settings were detail 0.85, AA 18 (type error, oops ) and GI 4/4 to avoid black spots.
Model is an Aleppo Pine.
Thanks for viewing and C&C is always welcome

Very nice indeed 

[overlordchuck]

Oh wow.  Very nice.  Very realistic.

[sjefen]

This is very realistic. Very good details although there is a lot of nois in the shadow areas.

[rcallicotte]

This is magnificent and much better than I thought you would do with the last one (with the trees at the bottom, remember?).  Excellence in every way.

excellent*

[Will]

yes very well done

[Kevin F]

Superb image, one of the best I've ever seen, the rock face is perfect. A definite contender for image of the week. Well done.

[Oshyan]

These rock structures are absolutely stunning. Extremely realistic! There seem to be some odd edge colors on the vegetation needles, but it may be the laptop LCD I'm on...

Great job!  The detail here really is fantastic.  The shadows look a little blue/green to me - is that your textures or some odd shadow settings?

[Cyber-Angel]

This is a great image. A question if I may how did you get the displacement of the surface like that, I'd be interested to know?

Regards to you.

Excellent job, very realistic although I have to agree with sjefen about the grainy GI in the shadows.

[NWsenior07]

Excellent render. I see the odd edges on the needles too but I'm on a laptop as well. I like the detail on the rocks, very, very realistic.

[dhavalmistry]

this is amazing TU....I really like the small detailed displacements....are you using the same technique as you used in stratas???....

Martin, you've done outstanding work here. I don't see anything here that suggests this was created digitally. The render time was worth it.
