Tried my hand again at some mountain road. Still very much a WIP. No compute terrain, so rendered in 25mins or so.

I love this. From the thumbnails I thought it was a cliff by the sea. The footprints in the snow are v convincing :o

When I was in Vancouver last year there was a trail leading from Grouse Mountain just like this. The only difference being the slopes were covered with tall dense conifers.
Great work as usual :)

Beautifully Done - there are trails like this in the Dolomites.

He's getting better. I added some more structure on the sloping right, a gully across the track, and Jochen's landrover will be there! And trees.

Some errors in warping the path and not its snow, though.

Gorgeous.
Another great 'Death Road'.
No problem for a Landy, though, hopefully. ;)
Is that other car a 2CV ?

Yes. But I like your landrover MUCH better!
I placed a 3 corner fractal warped SSS across the track to make a gully, then the primitive bridge across it. I hope it's strong enough ;)
This would be cool as train track as well. Might do that.....

Fabulous work as ever Ulco,
The 2cv looks like it's only wide enough for one!
LR110 is much better!

A really beautiful image.
What I see so often is that in cars, airplanes or other vehicles nobody sits inside.
I have often camouflaged it by making a reflection in the window or turning the vehicle a little bit, so that a virtuell driver sits behind an angle or shaded window.
But nevertheless, a wonderfull landscape with a great pathway in the mountian (looks really beautifull!)

I actually thought about putting someone inside, or placing someone outside the car, checking on the sturdyness of that bridge, but didn't come to it.

doesn't the LandRover come with a driver or did I just put mine in it?...can't check as it's locked in the 'boat anchor'.

I doesn't, but it's easy to pop a simple figure inside.
Another track. Very simple, just the internal grass, a shrub and my heather v2.

Volga(russian) had a similar model so it could be a Volga.

Might be the one Bobby was thinking of.

It's a GAZ (Russian I guess) and it looks like a Volvo PV544, which we owned and drove around quite a while ago.

These are great renders again, Ulco!
I like the first mountain paths at the cliff and the little bridge most.
Bitt I also impressed by the smoothness of the cars lightbeam in the last renders. Must be a long rendertime with hight atmo-quality and high AA, right?
