My try in Vue - still need to learn a lot...

That's awesome Andre! Great work.

Adam, that rocks

Marian · 1 Dec 2009, 14:21

I'm blown away. That's as good as the inspiration for the model.

Beautiful image Adam. Very nice Christmas card.

Great stuff Adam, Vue or Vray?

EarthMover · 1 Dec 2009, 18:57

Thanks guys! Pete, it's Vray. The mountain is just a background image that I added in post. Actually the raw render is not impressive at all.

Here's another daytime one to show a close up of the displaced cobbles popping up through the snow mesh. Tried to keep the color balance cold and wintery. If anyone wants a copy of cobble texture or the snow image I used for overlay, let me know.

Had a quick go at this one because I love the model so much. Great job Ely. Quick render and a bit of photoshop.

Those last two images were amazing - pure inspiration for us novices!!

Thanks Dermot for the compliment. The longer you dabble, the more tricks you collect. The raw renders for those images where nothing special. I spent little time on the materials and rendering. Good photoshop skills can make up for a lot.

Adam, is this V-ray for Max or V-ray for SU? I'm asking because I'm trying to find out how to add displacement map to a texture in v-rayfSU

remon_v · 2 Dec 2009, 11:19

under the "maps" rollout check displacement en click on the "m" > type "bitmap" > click on the "m" and browse to you displacement map

Let me pick my jaw from the floor .
David, Adam...speachless .
Thanks a lot guys.We can clearly see that in a project the 3d model represent about 20-30% ..the render does all the job.
Well done guys,well done!!!

Amazing picture to get inspired from! But I'll be blunt about one thing, scientifically the moon part of the picture is done wrong-the moon crest should not have the clouds in it.

But still... Amazing picture to get inspired from!

Ok, I gave it a whirl. I had fun with it and learned a few things too. Getting the snow to 'bunch up' on the roof was new to me.
