Title: Asperatus clouds
Post by: latego on June 01, 2009, 02:04:30 PM
From the nah-it-is-not-a-realistic-cloud department, have a look at some http://www.cloudappreciationsociety.org/gallery/index.php?x=browse&category=52&pagenum=1 (http://www.cloudappreciationsociety.org/gallery/index.php?x=browse&category=52&pagenum=1) Asperatus clouds (to me, this http://www.cloudappreciationsociety.org/gallery/index.php?showimage=1540 (http://www.cloudappreciationsociety.org/gallery/index.php?showimage=1540) is the most mind boggling example).

Bye!!!

very interesting, I'd like to see this in TG2, but right now it seems the base is always flat.

You could probably accomplish those with invert profile (on the tweaks tab of the cloud layer) turned on.  Also the lighting creates a lot of the depth seen in the clouds

It's really incredible to see that sometimes reality is stranger than fiction ;)

I'd like to have those clouds in some of my future renders, not just asperatus clouds, but others too,

Asper-atus, seeing that word makes me think of aspergers syndrome, which I happend to have.

The clouds are now officially titled Undulus asperatus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undulus_asperatus). They still haven't figured out what causes them though.
