Here is another one from me. I had this scene in my head for years. 4k render attached Hope you like it C&C are welcome.
absolutely awesome, really great job
OMG, at 2K it almost indistinguishable from photo. Superb job!
I love it ! Every single bit. We can feel it was shot just after the rain, when the sky starts to clear up. Fog starts to fade off and will give way to a beautiful sunny day. Lighting is top notch.
I would be curious to know a bit more on your approach for building that scene (reference, framing, render, post…). Really well executed, congrats !
Amazing renders…Very detailed and nice materials. feeling this scene. Congratulation for great job.
Thanks for the replies, Glad you like it
I don’t have a specific reference for this, I started by googling Street after rain, london morning etc..
Here is clay render
It started like this last week. First I made the pavement and roads, Tuned the materials and lights and get a decent look;
After that I build the surrounding buildings and other details.
Great, well done!
Its absolutely fantastic but its honestly the most geographically confusing picture ive ever seen haha. London doesnt have yellow school buses, school crossing signs and fire hydrants!
haha exactly; I was confused too. I started with new york reference; then paris and london. I didnt had a plan
I want the newyork schoolbus, london bicycle and the paris streetllights 
It’s a city with something for everyone from everywhere 
Superb images and materials.
This is insane quality!
How long did you spent on it approximately?
that’s an awesome render! congrats!
did you use fog?
and the interiors behind the windows, are those 3d objects interior or just a windows texmap? once I used a texmap to reduce the render time but I cant make it looks as good as yours
I think I spent approximately 50 hours. Most of time spent was thinking what to do due to lack of a plan
Yes Fog is used.
Interior of the Costa is 3d, but the pizza interior is just textmap applied to a plane with light material. The plane is inside and there is also window with glass material so it looks like 3d
ok I got it, many thanx for the tips
I love the wet ground materials, so nice to look at.
Amazing set of images, How long did it take from start to finish and what softwares did you use? would be great to see a “making of” tutorial for this. Corona should implement a page for that, much like over at Ronen Bekerman, might as well, the corona community is so big and the 3D artists here are too good.
We use our blog for “making of” type articles 3D Rendering Blog for ArchDesign, ArchViz, Media & Entertainment | Chaos Of course there are also company / artist profile type articles on there too, but it’s our place for sharing such things.
Thanks
I think it took about 50 to 60 hours. Only used max and photoshop; Photoshop was only used to add some contrast. LUT in corona itself did a wonderful job.
I will make a “making of” when I get some spare time. I will post it in the tutorials section.
The making of is on corona blog
