It's obviously a very nice scene to travel around in. Subtle country. Some nice POV's. I have a question about the lake, though; isn't it a bit too opaque?




yes the water is not terrible. It is to be remade.

Looks like an acrylic fill in  to me as well.

Acrylic fill, what do you mean exactly?

It looks like acrylic paint to me...featureless, opaque, no reflection.

Yes, the color and general opacity is realistic for certain kinds of sediment/mineral-rich lakes. But I think it just needs a very slight translucency at the shore to sell the effect.

It sometimes looks like this .. here for example : http://lesallues.nl/fr/wp-content/uploads/2-Le-Lac-Blanc-2.430m-au-dessus-du-Refuge-de-P%C3%A9clet-Polset.jpg , http://www.montagne-cool.com/donnees/topos/229/photos/TOP_229_2776_1249133079.jpg_mini.jpg


some other example;

Luc thank you for the link.
It actually exists in nature and is sometimes more evident as the location of the camera light as well and other factors. I think the particular location of the water in my picture,  the camera and light, the reflection almost made it impossible, at least I did not find sollution. For the subsequent pictures, camera position and the light allow little reflection. I made with a plane "beach" with a very long slope and increased transparency for plausible color variation for water.

That nails it for me, well done mate....

These last renders are very nice, very realistic with beautiful colors. Great work !

Dune

That's just the difference that perfects this render. Great!

When I started checking the news in this topic my first idea was to do a more transparent shore of the lake... and you did!  :) Perfect, well done!  :)

Watching some recent 4K video on UTube, of Yoho and Banf,  I had to double check and the water was moving....I am thinking, that looks like a render I saw recently. Your effort here is excellent!

Thanks luvsmuzik!
I am curious. Do you remember the render you mentioned?
