Title: Maya/Mental Ray forest - quite impressive!
Post by: Tangled-Universe on June 18, 2012, 09:52:53 AM
Some of you may have seen this already, but it is created using Onyx plant software and Zbrush for the large vegetation. Also some paintFX plants. For environment/stones/path he used Maya and all is rendered in Mental Ray.
Rendertimes are ~30 min @ 720p, PER frame :) Probably does not contain much displacement, but probably a lot of polys ;)

Outstanding dirt on that path. I have to say that it looks like a photo.
Very good to hear from you Martin! You were missed.

Excellent! Thanks for putting up the link. I'm often jealous of mental ray and v-ray renders :)
