            Every time I see this thread's title, I remember this dialogue from Yellow Submarine:

            • Where are we?
            • I don't know, it looks like the foothills.
            • The foothills of what?
            • The foothills of the headlands.

                      Looks great Oli, what renderer did you use? and what setting as that looks biased.

                              Are there any render tutorials on twilight? I've seen a lot of great renders done with twilight (including this one 😄 )

                                twilight for this particular one.

                                I used exterior progressive to flint template. spherical sky and sunlight enabled 😄 (although I added sky back in PP cos it was a bit distorted)

                                (previous renders were podium biased for speed)

                                    In my knowledge no, but if you render alpha mask with 2-3x greater resolution and scale it down in photoshop, you will get AA + Supersampling.

                                        yeah......the manual lol 😉

                                        this was very easy to setup, like 5 mins to setup the render (lots more time to model) and 15 hours to render it, although I could have stopped it a lot sooner.

                                        See the youtube transition here:

                                        sorry about the bad quality, thats youtube for ya

                                          If it's for replacing the background, have you tried this with a big plane instead?
