Title: Forest
Post by: Hannes on September 09, 2016, 03:35:55 AM
First I wanted to name this image "Morning wood" until I read, what that means... ;D
Actually this is the same forest like in my "Crusade's over" image. I wanted to take this a little further, changed the POV a bit, moved the sun and added more things.

 ;D Don't google image that  ;D ;D

Very nice again. The bugs are a nice touch, though I first thought it was dust on my monitor. I would leave out the pile of logs I think, and dump one of the standing trunks (morning wood  ;D). Add just something else to give it a story....
The path and wood are nice enough to get more out of it!

Very beautiful and realistic. I like the sun beams a lot.

Well I  for one like the dead fall. Just back from a walk in the woods after the jam at the beach and there's almost as much dead fall as trees in some places. Great image man.

Wow this is lush! Pretty jealous. I've been doing so many barren rockscapes recently, I've forgotten what a tree looks like!  :D

Now, if there where to be a fair maiden, watching the woodsman and his wood... ;)?
also 'Morning Wood' would get a lot of hits!

beautiful atmosphere and mood... love the light and detailing too!

Same Forest, different POV.

And a poor guy.

And a dinosaur.

A T. Rex escaped from Jurassic Park (or World?) thinking he deserves a day off. In a nearby Starbucks branch he ordered a Dino Size Cinnamon Dolce Frapuccino.
Ty spent the rest of his day being frustrated by the fact, that his shitty little arms are way too short to drink his coffee.

The young man is just a guy with an anxiety disorder, fearing oversized reptiles and cinnamon, being at the wrong time, in the wrong place.


(Btw, the T. Rex is a free model from Turbosquid. Sometimes you can get some gems there for free!)

Nice :)
If the guy was more on the left or farther away on the right it could maybe work even better?

Beauty, and understandable when you keep turning up great shots like this one.

All renders superb!

I was loughing out when I saw the man's face... I know that situation if you're talking about your boss and then you look into the eyes of your colleagues and ask: "He's behind me, right?"  ;D ;D

Thanks a lot, guys.
At the moment I'm trying a bit of animation. A little walk (flight) through the wood. I'll keep you informed.

That last one, #3, with the light rays is really nice. Hope you're animating that one. :D

Yes!

Speaking of sun rays, how the heck did you get that canopy light effect...been trying since the BETA came out first...one of the first things I tried having been inspired by the demo videos.

I used a quite high sun strength multiplier combined with a value of 1.8 (as far as I remember. I'm not at my Computer at the moment) for the environment light and a localised cloud layer with receive shadows from surfaces checked.
I hope this answers your question, Bobby.
