Simple Renderings Thread

Nice.

bubs: can I ask what env. map you used? Been looking for one with that really warm/cold colour balance. Is it one of Peter G's skies? If so, which one?

[MRoz]

Wow, really nice render bubs, I'm also very curious about your lighting setup!

I've done a little abstract render this week to test some things with materials...

[Oscar J]

Wow! Render time?

[MRoz]

I've waited 45 hours haha, but it was pretty much clean after 20 hours (on my laptop). I'm always at school so I don't really care...

[bubs]

MRoz that is awesome! really cool!

As I said in my earlier post the lighting set-up is literally 2 exit portals and an env map. there is one directly to the left side of the image and the other is behind the camera to the right facing the wall. Sorry I can't show a wireframe, I didn't even save the scene because it was only the the model I was after!

@OscarJ - I think I used sky number 8 from the vizpeople free pack of hdri's. I tweaked most of them in Photoshop tho because the dynamic range isn't anywhere near as good as PG's. Think I painted a spot over the sun position with an intensity of approx +10 stops (but don't quote me on that it was quite a long time ago...). I didn't use a pure white spot to give the light more warmth in a very blue sky.

My mistake! was able to check the .igi and I did actually use a PG sky on this. It was 1847 dusk sun, with gamma set to 1.3

One of my last projects

I like the lakeview!
To increase realism I would paint some sort of "coast" in Photoshop...
Maybe like this:

If you are using mesh scattering then a simple height shader can prevent them to be spread below a certain height, ask Ono/SkI devs.

[tarikb]

I didn't understan you, what u mean, can u explain plz

[CTZn]

Scattered objects can obey a shader that would prevent them to be spawned close to a water plane, for instance. SkIndigo users could be presented with just a height parameter and not have to be bothered with the shader itself.

Material testing

[thesquirell]

What material are you testing? May I suggest a displacement map for that rock texture? (Generalno mi se prostor svidja )

[tarikb]

Testing parquet, wall stucco map, and light.. (Ma nesto mi sjebe mapu, jer nemam displacement mapu samo bump mapu od kamena.. Il neznam da podesim dobro.. A prostor sam samo onako napravio, testirao sam zid, kamen, parket i svetlo sa ucenicima koje ucim sketchup i indigo..)

[thesquirell]

Well, if you are having some problems with the displacement map, I will be happy to help you with the knowledge I gathered from users here, and if you send me your original texture file I could create one for you. As for the floor material, recently I stumbled upon this amazing one created by amazing bubs, check it out:

He even explains how he created that nice effect, try that one out, too!
