Title: I think I'm getting this_Pine Forest023
Post by: bobbystahr on April 21, 2019, 02:29:23 AM
Was doing spring cleaning sorting dusty cd's and found a back up of models and textures for a lot of the stuff that went out the window...woo hoo. Amongst it all was an architecture folder for a project I was helping a gal pal with and init were a small horde of .3ds(what Imagine read)trees and one folder of some quite lo res lodgepole pines that rendered fine in Imagine but I took them into PoseRay and one SubD of each model gave me these. Been tweaking this for hours and finally got some depth with increased camera exposure, set to 2.
That's Walli's Pine Bush and that the same scattered leaves but with pine needles on it. C&C welcome.
So in closing spring cleaning is a good thing.

That's what you call a successful scavenger hunt! There's a lovely mysterious mood about this wood.

I like it! I some time ago wanted to do a similar not too dense forest too, but I was too bad in creating such a good ground at that time! Great, Bobby!

The ground is where this started Nils. The path and ground are both PBR textures that I'm experimenting with a bit of success with.

Looks great, Bobby! Maybe the ground texture is a bit too grey?

I'm using a PBR texture map set, that was the point of doing this image. Not totally happy with how it turned out and decided that this map set is really only good for 'hero shot' close ups...will mess around with that later. I'll likely just replace the forest floor with a PF blend in a future render.
