Very good model , i love its clear minimalist lines and it is in perfect harmony with the landscape.

Number 1 rules Great light and I like the postprocessing.

ok this is the final revision to the morning shot.i added some additional snow on some of the elements and also larger/deeper snow in the garden. I also attached the original unprocessed image that i got from vray. [image: CRty_morningsnow3postprocessed.jpg] [image: HEGo_morningsnow3original.jpg]

@davidh said: hi oli i found a tutorial for creating rain at http://www.photoshoplab.com/rainy-day-rain-effect.html. the first half tutorial basically creates a rainy overlay mask. I grabbed a rainy overlay from the web and applied it to a rendering as a watermark. [image: 1lNg_rainy-day.jpg]

love the first view...where you can ever so slightly see inside..... the composition of this scene is just great.

The last one is a dazzler mate!

The first two images aren't very crisp, as if they are out of focus. Also, you might want to consider modeling more of the surrounding site, so you don't have those black areas in the corners. Third image looks great.

Which render engine do you use? Vray? edit: just realised you said it on the top of the first page.

David These are fabulous examples. How long did it take you to clip round the leaves?
