beautiful work giraffe.....I'm envious of your talent

[Candelero]

Hey Dear Elif,

Super work !
I see something like you're changing your style of rendering. If I haven't seen it is your thread, I wouldn't say - those are giraffe's works.
I think that style fits better for you. !

Kisses.

Best regards,
nikki Candelero

P.s.:
on the bird-eye camera - where the cross road is, the top-left one - misses the curve a bit.

thx dear nikki
I think you are right. I see these different too

do you mean new style fits better?

[jujubee]

This looks fantastic.

My only comments would be for the trees to look a little more green and less brown. Also perhaps it is my monitor, but the top image could use a little more overall brightness in post.

[werticus]

is this the 'tree storm' product? and do they render fast... ie with geometry or do they use opacity?

[sharpcube]

Man if this is in a hurry the i am slowwwwwwww


Superb render

[beestee]

These renders have a distinct illustrative look. My preference goes to the second image, it is perfectly balanced. Altogether very nice work!

[deneb26]

those pics are just brilliant. love the soft mood.
great work giraffe

ale

[giraffe]

thanks again so much

yes plants and trees are all 3D.

these are trees I modeled using onyx treestorm. all are geometry but leafs are opacity-map planes. I didnt have any problem with render times.
All renders took about 45minute (max 1hr) at a resolution around 1600x1000. But not high settings.
I always use irradiance map + LC
never used brute force + LC ever. but I want to try that for a personal scene

Excelent work! How did you do the tree bark? Is it displaced or just a strong bump? I love your trees, and also use Onyx. But Onyx gives you a base, the rest is up to artist

[giraffe]

I used bump for the trunks but displacement is better for close views.
can we have displacement on vrayproxies? that I dont know.

I agree your comment about onyx. that is why I like it more

I used bump for the trunks but displacement is better for close views.
can we have displacement on vrayproxies? that I dont know.

I tried this week to use displacement and make a vrayproxie, but I did not succeed in it, i'm afraid it is not possible;
ah, I was looking for texture maps at the onyx library, 'cause they have also nice leaves, but no textures of trunks, guess you are using bump/disp to create the similar looks;

btw giraffe, i send you a pm, week ago, thank you for your good work and inspiration to all of us
