Impact

This is my final entry for the 3D World contest. There is more post-pro here than I usually do, but I wanted an older, slightly beat-up photographic feel. I have also attached the version without filters so people can see the original TG output with slight color correction.

And the one without filters.

I do like the postpro colours better...

How did you do the blast light? Just a light source?

With filters is better.  I like it.

I also like the one with filters better - Manhattan Project-Style

Thanks to some input from Oshyan, I re-rendered a few parts and changed a couple of things. I like this color scheme a little bit better, I brought out some more detail in the foreground, and I used the painted shader on the mountain to the right to add some interest. *This* is my final contest entry . Comments and critiques are still appreciated.

Hey, No fair pulling a ringer out of your back pocket.

[Oshyan]

Looks good. I think the changes have helped. The foreground texturing adjustments are particularly nice.

I like it!

I have to say the painted shader is a great addition.
I can't wait until everyone can play with it! The crazy thing people can come up with.
