Rock and Lichen

kaedorg · March 31, 2015, 04:36:22 AM

Hi guys

I've been far from this forum for the last 6 months because of health problems of my son.
Now he is fine and I can have time for me and back on Terragen

Here is a study on Rock and Lichen as I should use that for beach views from Brittany.
Put some orange and yellow lichens.
And thinking about greenseaweed.

This view is just here for the study of the rock

Hey David, good to have you back. I was already wondering where you were. Good that your son is fine again.

It's a nice rock, and I am curious to see where you take this. It will need something to show its size. My idea would be around 1-2 meters, am I right?

You're right about the size. It is 1.2 meters height.
The idea is to get the right parameters then create as many rock as needed (of different sizes)
keeping or adjusting values for lichens or reflectivity.

The image shows you the nearest beach from my house (about 150 meters).

Wow, that's some beach! We definitely need to come over one day

This would be a great spot to make in TG. Is your rock a displacable cube or a fake stone? Both could work well, I guess.

You're welcome anytime

Displacable object here.

Nice bolder

Too bad we cant populate them yet.

C'est du côté de Douarnenez, ça, non ?

oui en fait c'est la première plage de Tréboul avant la plage Saint-Jean
une petite crique accessible par un escalier

Starting this idea of the beach

Small rocks for beach with lichens
Bigger rocks for cliff around the beach.
Try of vegs

Very good David. Looking forward to the evolution of your composition.

Dune · April 02, 2015, 02:33:44 AM

If you want to make that secluded beach surrounded by rock, why not paint the rocky area (horseshoe-like) and raise it? Or will you be adding a number of the displacable cubes to form that half-ring?

kaedorg · April 02, 2015, 05:56:39 AM

The idea is to study the displacable objects.
So the rocky area (horseshoe-like indeed) will be made with objects.
Not sur of the result, but at least i should learn from the try.

Continue this study.
Here 3 displacable objects.

Good work. your rock texture and coloring are very natural. I can see many variations for this setting, including a forested composition.

This can be very nice... play it carefully!
