I like it..its great work But you hiding some trick from us..........
Amazing work! i loved the lights falling on the leaves most!
Good work. Now you should resume it and mimic the lightning from the photo.
"...So I guess that's why you say you wouldn't use a VraySky alone today :)...)
Exactly it, I suppose that in the present, I would have used at least one source of direct light,
I really like it! The only thing that bugs me a bit is the lighting. I can't tell from your render if it's a cloudy day, a hazy sun day, a sunny day, etc. The lighting is too neutral I think. So I guess that's why you say you wouldn't use a VraySky alone today :)
everything is simply too close. still a good image, but i cant orientate myself so that's where the dislike would be introduced. good visual. in terms of DOF and perspective marriage it's a clear no. BUT a great learning process non the less, thanks for the tut.
. . great works! . .
brilliant maestro Begleiter ! at first fast glance and before reading text I could not find the ''3d additional item'' in what seemed a bad photo!! it is very difficult to achieve this simplicity. after long staring at final image and knowing the making process I would say that the wall of leafs at right is a tadbit man made pattern. andrew kramer of videocopilot in his 127 the jungle tutorial solves this by applying a 'z axis' gradual desaturation. thanks a lot for the almost zen techniques it enhances my ability to create too ! cheers from Rio de Janeiro Brazil.
Thanx Roman, I will check that tutorial soon. Enjoy Rio
It's a nice image, but I don't really get what you've done other than create a few cylinders and boxes and place some ready made plants? You say the exercise was to improve your vegetation skills, but you've not made any of it, right? Forgive me if I'm wrong
Hi Dave. As I stated in the first paragraph : It's a simple and fast scene, no more than beginners level. At the time (more than 2 yrs back) the idea was to practice the composition of vegetation. Adding the fact that people like it until today, makes it a successes for my opinion. There are no new tricks nor technology here, Only pure simplicity. Shy
greater than the great
THANK YOU VERY MUCH . VERY USEFUL
thanks for this. The final image looks great
