How did you not get hard shadows?

Okay, I'll try that.

But first I have to model a scene....

Hi Estevan, The current Indigo sky+sun model currently doesn't really allow for clouds. You could try turning the sky turbidity up to 6 or so, but that's not really a full solution. You could also try using an HDR EXR environment map, they tend to have lower contrast than the sky+sun model. So usin...

The thing is, I want my image to look like its in an overcast/cloudy setting while still using a Physical Sky in Indigo.

That is some of the most realistic water I've ever seen......

top-left: shiny rock-like material, didn't turn out very interesting
top-right: soft bush-like material, used SSS
bottom-left: water
bottom-right: soft orangey-material, used SSS

modeled in blender, rendered in indigo for 5 hours.

comments?

i dunno. i'll keep this one, i dont mind.

("Editing" button, "Lin...

Hello.

My name is Estevan Galvez. If you remember eg2k6 (the guy who made the ultra-simplistic renders with the bunnies and whatnot), then you know me. I've decided to start using Blender and Indigo again, and I've also decided to get a new account.

Here is my first render under my new account.
