Cool. I like the rays on the second image.

Yes, the second one is brilliant! A little DOF for the foreground leaves would be perfect.

...and a little more random distribution of the groundcover.

Good rays!
Additionally I would repeat what Hannes says. Variation in groundcover and DoF could improve it.

Thank you for the replies.  Yes id also like to have some dof in the scene but my comp wont be able i think. I am trying to desperately optimize my renders so that they dont take 15hrs each like the rock ones. I think i did achieve this for does 2 renders as they did take me less then 8hrs for both. I should have a few more renders finished soon and will post them on this post.

Actually I would like to render the 2nd one for you(us) with dof if u okay with it.  ;)
There are great potential in there.

Sure, that would again help me alot. Dont worry that scene does not have crazy numbers in detail or AA or GI as the last one. I am doing a render atm but as soon as it is finished i can send you the scene again ready for render. If it could also have the same 2k resolution as the last one or even more that would be awesome.

Best regards,

Michel H.

OKay. The resolution, detail/AA was not the problem last time. The GI yes. When I cut down the number in GI the whole render was done in 2 hours.
Do you also want dof on it?

Yes please.  So you think we can get a very interesting render out of that scene ?

Hannes suggested good things. Maybe you can try that so there is a variety of ground cover.
Me personally do not like the big green plant in the face of the cam but this is your artwork and I respect that.

Yes doing what Hannes wrote at the moment. Scene should be ready to send to you in one hour or less. Just changing a few things. Will see how that render goes.
Title: Re: God rays for all
Post by: Michelh on October 04, 2015, 04:51:42 PM
Would it be possible to do one with dof and one with out that option? 
Title: Re: God rays for all
Post by: archonforest on October 04, 2015, 04:54:08 PM
Sure I can render both. No prob.

Beauty...I may have onr\e for ya...trying it in TG2 as I have the full but if it doesn't look right expect a panic message as it's a commission I got last night when an old client came by for a social visit. Asked me if I could do a large print and the cash being thin here(just paid house insurance rather than upgrading TG3)...sigh, caused me to say yes...
stay tuned heh heh heh

Okay let me know. Just  think with that we are a different time zone. The difference can be between 6-9 hours :)
