Title: To the Summit
Post by: choronr on February 08, 2010, 09:19:19 PM
Using the terrain from my last few scenes, I've added the following vegetation:

•   Dry Shrub by 'Wali' available at NWDA. Added both a single and populated shrub.
•   DNW Flower by 'Walli' available at the Planetside forum.
•   Mouse-eared Chickweed by 'Walli' available at NWDA.
•   Vinca Flower available at Ashundar.
•   The Noble One tree by 'Walli' available at the Planetside Forum.
•   Bush3 by 'lightning'.
•   Hut model from a friend.

Would appreciate your critiques and comments.

Bob

A nice retreat from the everyday world. I'd like to spend a couple weeks there.

HI Bob, good looking overall, but the scale of the hut and the vegetation (specifically grasses) don't go well together. If the hut is the current size, the grasses need to be much smaller.

Cheers,
Frank

Thanks Frank; didn't feel right about this one - I'm going to re-render with increased scale of the hut; and, some added shrubs in the foreground.

I like it! Although IMO I think the foreground could use some tiny, tiny fakes stones to provide that extra layer of detail to the ground.

An update of the previous image contains the following changes:

•   Increased the size of the 'Hut' (Shack).
•   Increased the population of the Dry Shrubs.
•   Increased the camera exposure a bit.
•   Reduced the size of the single Dry Shrub next to the tree.
•   Increased the density of the smallest Fake Stones and adjusted their color.

That's  it for this project; on to the next.

It looks like a Hollywood set. Great job!
