Title: Bugs Life
Post by: lonewolf on November 28, 2008, 03:59:41 PM
Here's my latest creation, still needs a little tweaking. Everything is in real world scale.
The ant was from turbosquid.com, the clover was a model I made.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Edit: I know about the clover stem going throught the ant. He will be moved in the next version. Wireframe view would be great for placement. Wink Wink Planetside.  ;)

Great idea, well executed. I love off the wall images.
A bit of variation in the clover would help, i.e. size/shape/colour.
Please post further work.

Slight displacement applied on vegetation might help too :)

Finished rendering another version. This one has fog and have played with clover placement and size.
However, I did notice a couple of spots where the clover leaf didn't render, will have to export the model again, see if that helps.

I feel the clover leaves are too flat and straight, perhaps you could work on that? It would add a lot to the realism of this scene...

Finally got around to modifying this scene. Made a blade of grass and changed the clover a little.
Rendered bigger 2400x1800 in around 25.5 hrs, 100% TG2. Minor levels in PS after saving as exr.
