Title: Outer World
Post by: Seth on February 08, 2009, 04:26:02 PM
Trying something different from my attempt on realistic renders...
It was so fun to try to do something "alien" looking ^^

Very good lighting - again ... seems to be the point of your renders that add an over-additional eyecatcher.

Fine control of those hard-to-be-controlled displacements. Could be a tad softer - else a flawless work!

I really like the colour-shades and the glow. Very good concept and execution!.

Amazing work. I love the lighting and the organic looking displacement in the lower half. It actually looks like a kind of colony of insect-like aliens.  ;D

Love those pods; what alien lifeforms are gestating in them. An excellent other-wordly sci-fi conception.

Wow! Another fantastic scene, Seth. Job's a goodun! Looks like a giant, malignant chrysalis.

Hey, I agree with John.  This would be perfect for the Expose contest.   :P

Incredible render!  Makes me want to dip a coffee mug into that liquid and take a test sip...though not sure how long the metamorphosis into a xenoinsectoid would take.

It looks similar to this structure:

Are there any relations?
Title: Re: Outer World
Post by: Seth on February 09, 2009, 06:00:03 PM
no, relation at all
no strata shader was used.
only PF

???? Only PF ????

IMO there are also some crater shaders. At the beginning I thought you used also inverted ones, but looking again your picture I am not sure.

Nice picture, if you ever post a bigger one, I will add it to my collection of wallpapers.

Bye

You might see if someone would make a poster out of this one for you and try to sell it.  It's original enough, maybe some people would like it.
Title: Re: Outer World
Post by: Seth on February 10, 2009, 11:44:51 AM
maybe I should re-render it bigger for that kind of thing...
I'll see what i can do...
thank you all

here (http://seth93.blogspot.com/2009/02/outer-life-wip.html) is the first version I made... without craters and more basic lighting...
you can see a closer view of the strange formation too...

And you're planning on writing a tutorial about your lighting, still.  Ri-i-i-i-i-ght?

I was so fascinated by this image that I did some research on producing terrains like this.
Even if it is far from the genius of the original it shows quite interesting structures.
