Title: Clouds and a moon
Post by: Kadri on October 17, 2020, 03:49:42 AM
I was doing this especially for the clouds actually. And there was more of them in the beginning.
The moon came out kinda to the foreground more then i intended in the end...

Thanks guys.

Hannes i think i explained it here before but i am not sure.
It is in principle very easy actually. You just have to get some numbers right depending on cloud altitude and depth etc.

Just a powerfractal and a surface layer. You have to use restriction in altitude (limit maximum) for the powerfractal in the surface layer relative to the cloud.

Ah yes, I remember you mentioned something like that. Thanks, Kadri. So where do you put the surface layer? Do you feed it into the density slot of the cloud?

Yes i used it there Hannes. But you know you can use the other inputs too of course.

In this image i used 3 clouds one for the ground, smooth one.
Another one for the lower parts of the hard ones (this was a little thicker).
And the main ones where i used that method.  First and second clouds are just ordinary clouds.

very cool. 

Someone shared a setup in function area for something similar I think too.

Very plastic structures of the clouds and the moon. Nice!
