Title: The Great Race
Post by: Dune on December 16, 2010, 12:43:08 PM
Result of my 'under-ice-shelf' tests. A low small particle cloud + painted shader to make the snow whirl up under the cars. They used to do this in Holland, great fun!

the cars are a slid'n! :D :)

the only thing that bothers me are warped/ridged fractal displacements on the snow, i think the reflections look good though.

I agree about the reflections and the fractal lines as well. I like the way you have pulled off the blowing particles :)

I have seen snow do this, but not at this sale perhaps. Everything works well otherwise. Crazy people in the cars though.

Actually, there are no people in the cars, at least not visible in the front one. I'll have to find a crazy enough driver  ;)

Great work! The sun added a nice atmosphere on this

The low sun angle makes this really standout.
If you need some drivers, I grew up with some people who used to race cars on ice. Every March they'd have to fish out a car or two...
