I think he means could you rerender it HUGE so he can print it out, frame it and hang it on his wall. I wouldn't mind it either

wonderfull images!!

there is only one little thing.

i think the distance to the castle look strange because the plants in the water are so big and the castle looks to "near" .

there is not enough water between the castle and the camera that the proportion would fit.

i hope it´s clear what i mean. sorry for my english.

peter008:
Thanks This is the same crit I got on the previous post when I first started these images but I thought I fixed it. Is it that noticeable? Well I'm also still not extremely happy with the lighting so I'll probably give it one last work over along with tweaking the perspective/scale when 1.5 is released.

zuliban:
I'm not to sure how it will look enlarged due to my low resolution textures. I really need to get the hang of AA though. These were rendered with Catmull-Rom which seamed to be the best solution but now I've been playing with different filters and sampling parameters so we'll see how good it looks enlarged Maybe if I use the new displacement it'll help with the low res textures

Much thanks,

Everything has a falloff in the Diffuse in some form or another to give either a soft dusty look or a hint of lighting

The falloff goes in diffuse or in reflection?

Could you give me some hints to make the grass of the hills like yours?

Thanks!

yeah, the perspective looks weird, it makes the castle look really really small. It sort of looks bent, like you are looking down at the castle but up at the hills. I think it has a bit to do with the reflection, the fact the castle looks 1:1 in the reflection and stretches all the way to the other bank. I think you could adjust the position of the island and use a different lens to shorten the depth of field.

But they look nice especially the dusk one.
