Visualisation SU+Maxwell+Pshop

[ypnos1]

Sorry one last question

Where did you find such wonderful trees and 3d people. Did you buy them? If so where? Are they free and available to all of us?

Sorry for all the questions....really nice work!

...put the top two on soft light to enhance the colours.

Robmoors,

This might seem a dumb question, but would you mind explaining to someone who uses Pshop for only very basic image editing? Is it one of those layer blending options? A few steps will do.

Thanks,
Guite

Yeah I am currently Planning on writing a tutorial which covers basic and advanced finishing of renders in Photoshop.

Kwistenbiebel,
Great work, and I have to say although there is
still some grain on those images the windows look great. How long did it render?
Robmoors,
Ill be looking forward for those tutorials,
keep us posted.

I love that link! I wonder, are we allowed to use these commercially though?

A nice set of trees!
What do you find is the best way to remove the white background?

[Will03]

If you're on photoshop,

select > color range

I found a value around the 70's seemed to work pretty well.

Thanks for those links. that's great stuff.
It would be great if there was a special 'post process' section in the gallery forum.

Cheers,

We've started a Post Processing section in the tutorial section, is this what you had in mind? I know it is a bit thin at the moment, but it will grow as time goes by and people post some tutorials.

That's great Juju. IMHO the post tonemapping of the render output is primordial.
Sometimes bad renderings can be 'saved' by using the right Pshop tricks.
Alternatively, sometimes bad pshopping screws up a rendering that basically was pretty good to start from.

Looking forward to see some good tuts in that new section.

Thanks

Those tree images in that link are commercial and almost certainly copyrighted- although the guys's been a bit foolish posting such large previews (and no legal notices!), but nevertheless using them would surely be a breach of copyright. I edited the post with a note to this effect. As usual, if it seems to be too good to be true....
