If I were to elaborate on this I'd throw in more groundcover, and not use Douglas fir at one end and olives on this end  ;) And replace that car indeed. I might still do that as it has some potential.
Background terrain is flattened as I wanted a view through the canyon.

Hope to see a next iteration.

I probably will, as the rock is made partially by vdisp and there seems to be a difference between left wall and right (right is better). I might try adding one compute and see if a normal displacement works better. And take care of other issues (I'll put your landrover in). Lighting in canyons is always difficult.

Great canyon. Your  rocks are very good - it's an interesting method you're playing with must have a go myself.

Dune

Updated version, but still working on it.

Hannes

Cool!!!! Maybe a bit more texture variation? I like the POV. Looks really impressive.

Love what you've done with the rock fall an the road verges, and the LR110 looks really good. Did the lost guy ever figger out where he was?
The whole scene is very good.

Deleted a few nodes again, which didn't add much. Yes, The LR110 is a fine piece of Jochen's work. Rendering one from the opposite side of the valley now, see what that becomes.

Hannes

Impressive! Are these white vertical stripes (don't know the word for these) procedural?

Dune

Yes, just a stretched fractal masking a whitish surface shader and a reflective shader as child, for some sort of calcious drippings.
I think I must reattach some warp, as I miss some rockwall features now. But anyway, this is from the other side at sunset. The guy has turned Jochen's car and is heading back disillusioned, unable to find his dog (or wife.... or both). But he still has his shiny, beautiful rover  :)

Absolutely amazing what's going on here  :o
Very cool improvements and a scary cool new view in the last two pictures!

I like the composition more in the last two images Ulco.

Awww very nice!

Glad you clarified that, I thought he was gonna jump. I am sure she chased the dog chasing a critter and both are exhausted at trails end! (Ever the optimist)

Dune

I like this one better. Took 1.5 hours. I pushed back the left mountainside (vdisp+SSS, which was there already to steepen it anyway). I only see that I didn't locate the spotlights very accurately, and the stones are a bit too bloated.
