The beach

[Dune]

I think it has great potential, but the ship is far too big! Make it 1/4 or 1/3 the size at least and it would much better fit the scene. The object is very nice. Try exact measurements in relation to your cabins/houses. You could use the measurements tool, or a sphere of a certain radius. Looking forward to the next iteration!

Thanks for your suggestions, Dune, but I rendered it before with a smaller sized ship and it looked ridiculous. Unfortunately the resolution of the image isn't big enough to see that the "houses" are in fact dinghies!

[Dune]

Ah, that's why I thought the ship was far too big. Looking at it again, I see it might be around right, compared to the palm trees. I guess these ships were maybe 80-100m long?

The image with the ship is extremely good looking scene!
Excellent!

This is fantastic, keep up the great work

This is really great, whats your render settings? It looks very clean and realistic. Also, are those bushes just Grass clumps? or are they actually bushes?

[Hannes]

Thank you! I sometimes decrease the amount of haze and at the same time also the saturation of the bluesky density colour. This makes the image a little bit clearer. It depends on the size of the scene and the lighting.

The bushes are grassclumps, but not the ones that ship with TG, but ones that a former member of this community named Lightning shared with us. I still like to use them although they are not available anymore, but there are lots of other very good grass objects in the files section.
