Old Korean Bridge

Nice Bryan, have you cosidered using assets within D5 such as rocks and trees etc? I have had a look at them and they look pretty good

[Bryan K]

Thanks loco!

Thanks L i am!

As a free user of D5, assets are limited. I can use about half of the assets, the rest need a Pro license. That's not in my budget right now.

I am currently working on a D5 render of this, but I am also still learning my way around it, so it will take some time before I render this scene. I've already done some test renders and I don't like them, so I'm still tweaking the render and finding a work around for the limited assets. For this scene, it's the bridge materials.

But yes, D5 has some really good assets and look forward to using it along with Raylectron in the future.

Nice work Bryan Just food for thought. I fell into the trap of using the default aspect ratio of the Sketchup veiwport and leaving it at that. I have only recently learnt to use different apect ratio formats to improve composition for some subject matter. I have taken the liberty of reframing your image as an example. I would further consider reframing the image so that the person is 2 thirds down the image employing the rule of thirds revealing more sky perhaps wit a bird or 2 to add interest.

[Bryan K]

That's almost exactly the composition of the original picture!

Hey Bryan, you have taken a few leaps in this image. firstly you made landscape topography and mare imortantly you used a reference image as inspiration. Learning by trying to reference another image is absolute key to learning and improving skills. If anybody asked me the key learning modelling and rendering that would be my advice do that until you do not have to do it anymore

Thanks hellnbak! It took me years and years and I am still learning and practicing and trying to improve.
