My first attempt at integrating Richard's amazing atmosphere in an existing scene. It's an old one so is based (as a lot of early ones were) on a modified default terrain, nothing special with a medieval fishing dock and quarters and the Captain's house up the path. all free items but no read mes so I've no idea by whom. C&C welcome as it is a WIP... Only 3:24:20 rendertime so I'll be upping the resolution and maybe the size.
Nice.
Nice render!
Nice mood. Just one question. Is there a lamppost front of the house? Coz if this is a medieval scene...
Nicely done, I'd definitely up the detail level and cloud quality.
Also C&C wise I'm a little unhappy about the camera placement (probably just a personal thing) ... something about the foreground and the square on to the shore aspect.
Great to see my sky used in a new way !!

Thanks for the input...as noted it was the default set up on an old file and I really just wanted to experience your sun rise/set and am a tad loathe to change that as I love the light rays coming from the left. I will indoubtably do another scene and remedy that square on aspect. I rarely use that anymore but was angling on to the buildings on the short....next time I'll rotate the buildings for a more appealing camera angle to the shore.
I had actually a much higher res version running over night as that lo res one took 4 hours I figured over night ought to give me a good head start on a hi res one but we had a power out at 6 A M local time and the power only came back on at 7:30 when I awoke to a shut down computer. First power failure here i over a decade so I wasn't ready for that....sigh...oh well...back to pla....er work.
update
turns out it was a scheduled maintenance they didn't bother to announce ahead of time. when it went down my render would have been damn near done as well.....

LOL! That is a good one! :D
I think it has a lot of promise, and I am looking forward to where you take it to.
Agree about higher render quality but I love the "painting" feel of this.
Nice one.

Really nice image... not really at night - more in the morning but great!

Yeah, I agree but Red Sky in the Morning is followed by
Sailors take warning rather than
Sailors Delight and I do try to keep it positive.
Well I have a better view Richard, and have added some water plants and a nicer ship at the dock but; it looks from an average of 3 different crops that it'll be 15+ hours on my machine so I'm waiting for a gig period when I'm not even here. Drives me nuts having a render hog the whole machine but such is life.
Indeed such is life ... it'll be worth it.
You could try to limit the cloud heights, click on localise and you don't necessarily need all eight cloud layers.
Good luck :)

Thanks, got a jam night tomorrow and an open mic I attend Wed so I don't anticipate any heavy breathing on the computer till Thurs. I really don't wanna mess with those lovely atmospherics, they're so doing what I want right now, Lyla (Lady of the Lake) nailed it when she called them painterly, so y nailed Turner for sure.
Still waiting for a time window to do this render, got a paying gig that I am working on simultaneously with my house render(seems to not hog as much as Red Sky)but maybe this week end.
Lovely image, Bobby. Really looking forward to your next iteration.
I wouldn't have noticed the lamppost, however I like your answer! ;D
looking real nice Bobby!
:)
