Title: Desert Dawn Drive
Post by: digitalguru on May 23, 2019, 04:27:21 PM
Thought I'd post a couple of test frames of an animation I've been working on.

The car is rendered in Maya/Arnold and comped with the Terragen scene. It's been a long time in development and will probably take just as long to render. :)

Just got to work on some dust trails and hopefully get it rendered before summer.

Looks very natural. Hopefully you'll be able to post (a link to) the final animation. Good luck finishing this.

Oh yes - this will be very cool. The still shots look already very convincing!

Here's another test frame - it's starting to come together.
Still a lot of rendering to do though!

Rendering all the Terragen elements through Pixel Plow now, very impressed, seamless integration - upgrading to TG 4.4 Frontier really helped eke a lot more quality for the same render time. :)

Absolutely  :) 

Pixel Plow will be finishing off the TG renders this week hopefully, and there's still a bunch of Maya renders to complete, and sound to do so I reckon another month.

Excellent. Is this for a client, or a personal project? Branding is pretty clear, but the long time line makes me wonder?

This is a personal project, started as a demo project for my Terraman script to develop Terragen/Maya integration.

Your scene looks awfully realistic. Can't wait either!

Motion blur always bring together a scene for realism.

Love the latest still, looks almost like a promotional image you'd see on a bus or billboard.
