Adam,
Your plant pack is excellent and thanks for these alpha maps (should save alot of pp time).
Ed

Thank you so much for this Nomeradona.
I'm looking forward to trying it out.

Thanks Michalis and Nomeradona.
Texture baking seems quite the interesting subject.
After a quick google i see that you can render to texture with Vray for 3dsm. Do you know if this is true for Vray for SU?
Lovely Vue renders Solo.

I like No.4. The slightly darker image seems to suit the morning/evening red sky.

Fantastic images.
One question though: why did you choose that particular workflow?
Does Zbrush not have an appropriate renderer?

Thanks Guys,
Very useful comments, I'll work on the ivy and the stone.
Dylan, these were done with VRay, the plants added in photoshop then soft focus added with paint.net.
Adam thanks again for the plants.
Ed

A bit more stone than I'd like but sometimes you have to let the client have his way.
I'm not too pleased with the water bump map but can't find any decent ones.
A big thanks to Adam (Earthmover) for the plants used in these pics.

Thanks so much for this Adam. Very cool of you indeed.
I'd also be interested in the alpha maps.

Thanks David,
A great find. And tiny size too.
Look forward to playing around with this.

Modelhead: can you tell me where to get the plugins?
Thanks,
Ed

Thank you very much Roger.
I've been looking for these kind of images for a long time.
You da man!

Love the soft focus.
Is that render settings or post work?

These are fantastic. The lighting in the 4th and 6th pictures is beatiful.

I like this alot. Lovely atmosphere.

Cheers Takesh,
I'll have a look at this one too.
Ed

Thanks Elisei,
I'll give it a go.
Ed

Hey guys,
I'm looking for a decent screen recorder and see that there are oodles of them to be found.
Does anyone here have any recomendations?
Thanks,
Ed

Thanks Daniel,
He is a stiff, isn't he. Those figures were taken from the warehouse. I've found that adding 3d figures (without posing and tweaking all the materials in VRay first - exhausting) into the model prior to rendering reduces the realism of the output. Hence the silhouettes in the other pic.
Ed

Thanks eric.
They are a bit bright aren't they.
My photoshop skills need a tweak or two.

Really nice stuff.
Do you use hdri, sun and sky, or a combination of both for your lighting?

Part of a competition submission.
Rendered in VRay.
Bad and Worse criticisms welcomed.
