My tests

[Jiri.Matys]

Lighting study with hair and fur in 3ds max.

[Jiri.Matys]

soon...

[Jiri.Matys]

Material and caustics test.

[Jiri.Matys]

Long time no upload. Now I am testing new grass for exterior. Still VIP. What do you think?

[gadzooks]

Nice grass! Wheres it from?

[Jiri.Matys]

Its three or four models from maxtree, but I modify materials and textures a lot and then composite all together with forest pack and add stones objects and floor has displacement for details.

[Jiri.Matys]

First really quick tests of Substance Alchemist and Substance Source plugin right in 3ds max. Works pretty well.

WIP
Quick 4 minutes render, so noise is here, I know. But what you think overall?

[fixeighted]

I like the noise - it adds to it. I like the image also - very natural, apart from that one big tree...a bit too big for the composition imo, and a swap of the sky could be nicer
Oh, and a proper number plate
Nice grass.

[Jiri.Matys]

Thank you.
Yeah, I will change the plate on final.
Tree has a standard size, but you are right, I will shrink it a little.
I like that sky actually. Its from HDR. I am curious what you dont like on that one please?

[Jiri.Matys]

One more shot

[fixeighted]

With sky, for me, if there are clouds then it's all about the clouds, so just being picky, as in that first shot there is only that little bit on the left that
looks unimportant enough that it could just go...just my taste though so feel free to ignore
I mostly replace the HDR clouds with some more idealised clouds just to satisfy my particular love of them
Somebody at some point will develop a lovely sky and cloud system (yes, Chaos...I'm looking at you )

[Jiri.Matys]

Quick WIP test render.

[Jiri.Matys]

Some hair tests. VRay Hair material is really nice.

[Jiri.Matys]

Another test. Ornatrix is really great. And VRayHairNextMtl too.
