Solitude (Revisited)

mr-miley · January 06, 2009, 06:10:16 AM

Hi all. Happy new year to you all, hope its a good one

This is a redo of one of my old TG 0.9 renders http://mr-miley.deviantart.com/art/Solitude-18414112. The old version was rendered HUGE and is hanging on someones wall.

Anyway, I used Lightnings Hi Res grass and the highland grass, and I can't remember where I got the bullrushes from (if they are yours, let me know and I'll credit (think the file is called catails3.tgo))

Took about 7 hours odd to render at 0.8

Hope you like. C&C always welcome

A very warm render - that's how I would call it

Planetside should use old one together with a new one to show differences between TG 0.9 and TG2

Really nice render, it worths the rework with TG2.

The only thing I feel unconfortable is the relative scale of object population vs landscape: fake stone and grass seems to scale down the hills to talus... or it is me who have a wrong interpretation of the first image.

Thanks for sharing

chaps hit it on the head. I was wondering what it was, since I like almost everything about this. It's the scale of the mountains vs. the small stones - this needs changed to go one way or the other: smaller stones or larger mountains.

Yes it looks nice but I agree about the scale.

Great show of quality difference.
Apart from the scale, up the atmo quality in the final render and it's a winner!

Thanks for the C&C everyone.

Daft as it may sound, in my mind, I had the scale of this as it looks (eg. the "mountains" to the left about 5' - 6' above the level of the water etc). Eeeee, when I were 't lad I used to go swimming in a place a bit like this (It didn't look like this but the pond formed in a glacial "scar" The pond was about 8' deep and the surrounding rock only rose about 4' above the water level) Anyway, looking at this with everyone elses eyes I can see what you mean, but it looks about fine to me

Mohawk, the atmo looked fine on my smaller test renders, only noticed this myself on completion of the large version, but was too lazy to re-render

Makes perfect sense.
