It's a great looking tree. You have done a good job displaying it. I think I would have made the smaller trees less dense, so the full Noble Tree could be viewed.

now there are less ash trees.
now I'm adding a small path with fake stones in it, leading up to the noble one tree.

I really like this image and are waiting for the next one.

Zaai999 you aren't using the alpha build of TG2,do you?
I wonder how much better the objects would be rendered with the new build?

Very nice image. However I guess a second gras population would be fine.

Nice update Zaai999.
I like the path but a little more of the ash trees would not be bad.

You can not please everyone.
The first one was good enough for me  :D

Cheers.

actually i reduced the ash trees because Njeneb said he wanted to see more of the Noble One Tree, if he had'nt i would have just left them alone.

 i just noticed something a little while ago when looking at my render on DevArt, it appears some of the ash trees are missing parts of their trunks....need to fix that.

Simply beautiful but I gotta say I liked the setup in version 1 better :) The path is brilliant, though. In the small version these do look like photos.
Title: Re: Noble Giant - Version 2
Post by: Henry Blewer on November 10, 2009, 12:07:51 PM
This new version is great. Nice work!
Title: Re: Noble Giant - Version 2
Post by: Zairyn Arsyn on November 10, 2009, 12:46:54 PM
you may not know it but, from this pov, but the path splits in two different directions, but they both lead back to the Noble one tree.

of course I'm gonna have to make a night version of this, probadly one with a LampPost :)
Title: Re: Noble Giant - Version 2
Post by: ThinkPink on November 13, 2009, 04:01:53 AM
really great work!!!

What settings did you make on the grass and the trees. I tried the Noble One and some grass but in my images they look very artificial  :-[

Title: Re: Noble Giant - Version 2
Post by: Zairyn Arsyn on November 13, 2009, 07:59:16 AM
the noble one is just a single object, i changed the displacement a bit on the bark, the grasses are set to medium detail.
as for other settings i used: Deatail-0.9, AA-8 GI-1/1.

The new version is really nice. the path is well done and the Noble is sweet.

(are you happy now littlecannon?)

Post by: Henry Blewer on November 14, 2009, 10:48:53 AM
 I like this very much. The lamp really makes the image more interesting.
I'm still trying to figure out how to Deviant, but I'll get there.

I like that approach a lot! Now some wisps of fog...
Title: Re: Noble Giant - Night version

actually i had already thought about adding some fog, i'll add that next.

The bark looks fantastic.
Title: Re: Noble Giant - Night version
Post by: Kadri on November 15, 2009, 11:25:32 AM
The first ones reminded me of Africa (not that this trees would live there ..)
But with only one lamp inserted the last one looks like a nearby park in the night .

I like  this render Zaai999  :)

interesting

i have actually been trying to create a scene like this for a while (a night scene), in the past they didn't come out as close what i was going for, but thanks to walli I've came so much closer.

the version with fog is in the works, i'll probably have a hi-res/hi-quality render in a day or two. ;)

I really like the concept of this image, but...

by my reckoning the leaves of the 'noble' tree are about a foot in diameter when guaged by the other trees.

Sorry  :-\

that is because the noble one tree is on a higher scale compared to the other trees
