Title: noble one & moon
Post by: Zairyn Arsyn on August 21, 2010, 03:46:57 PM
just the first iteration, i'm open to suggestions.

i felt like going back to my regular (dark) rendering projects after working on the nwda contest for so long.  :)

nwda wild grass, models 4 & 7, walli's noble one tree, and ???'s moon terrain clip.

C&C welcome.

I'm actually more drawn to those reflective glows on the left brow of the hill. They seem more interesting. Especially if everything else was the backdrop.

Fuck, that sounds really bad. What I mean is that your obvious drama could be toned back a little.

I like the fuzzy transition from hill to sky and the colors also come out nice

Personally this is one of my favorite images of yours. There's a very mystical feel, it seems very symbolic. The atmosphere and colors are quite beautiful and, despite a very "forward" visual premise, the actual execution seems to be reasonably subtle and nuanced.

A very atmospheric render. Did you re-render it after all?

 ???"s moon - ah, that would be Rich2's, I believe ::).  Nice  start, but maybe lighten the colors on the moon a tad.

canceled the render again, i looked at when i got home and it looked a lot like the first, need work on this some more.

thinking about adding some rocks into the hill, like from the nwda hero rock file
experiment with the lighting some more.
