Fractalism Canyon

Tangled-Universe · February 09, 2010, 03:22:35 PM

The last one for now I think.

A couple of powerfractals, 2 strata-shaders, some rocks and bushes.
That's basically what's going on here

Cheers,
Martin

Biggerrrrr

check out the details on the boulders for example

can't get any better!

Superb detail! It makes me want to skip class and go find a canyon to crawl around in!

Very nice,

I love the boulders under the overhanging rock.
Also that you achieved it with so few nodes. (I'm a big fan of simplicity)

Thanks

My description is a bit deceiving it seems. The main shapes and strata are made with a couple of powerfractals (4 to be precise) and 2 strata shaders. But small detail etc. is added using some voronoi functions etc.
So all in all I think it is still around 100 nodes or so.
It's still remarkably fast, a 1000x1000 image with det 0.9, AA8 and GI 2/4 renders in about 6,5 hours.
