The old road i/p

[archonforest]

This is an in progress scene.
My main purpose was to learn how to create a road that looks okay. At the end I went to the direction of a forest scene.
Plan is to put more veggies so its more forest like. C and C are welcome. Will soon post the final look and a more detailed render.

That is an excellent render. Good one.
I like the grass bleeding into the stones, as that is what nature really does, but you can mask it away or use a painted shader to avoid your path, but please don't on this one.

Thanks. 
The grass is purposely there and they will stay no worry

You made fast use of these well done

[Lady of the Lake]

[fleetwood]

Looks like a fine start.

[archonforest]

Thank you guys and lady

Yes Danny, I love these trees. Btw thanks a bunch for keeping the prices in a friendly zone in the shop and to keep it actually alive!!

Here is a little update. For some reason the Elk looks like it was Photoshopped there while it was not. Guess I will have to put the model in the shadow somewhere.

[Dune]

Yes, 5m to the right, half in shadow could do the trick. Nice elk, btw.

[Agura Nata]

Yes a Shadowelk is better than a Sunelk, well done :-)

[DocCharly65]

Very nice project! Looks nice so far.

I agree with the elk.

So I call it as a done. Almost run out of the 8Gb I have in the PC 
Nevertheless the quality is on 1 and the AA is 11 the picture still not sharp at all. While zooming in on the original tiff render it falls apart like a jpeg.
Tried 2 diff pixel filter but no change. Any idea is welcome.

[Oshyan]

Looks plenty sharp to me. The grass looks very sharp indeed (almost like a sharp pixel filter was used, if the AA is 11).

Well I do not know something is off for my eyes...this last render was done with Mitchel-Netravali, the earlier with the standard set up.

Do you have any suggestion? More details or more AA perhaps?
