Title: “To disconnect”

Non-Competing

First time submitting something. Guess it is open as used a couple of materials from the BlenderKit, but otherwise, it would be Pure as all models were made by me.

Hey nice render.

Are those Cycles X samples?

nope, I don’t have one of those yet :wink: just regular cpu core samples

Here’s what I have so far.

My idea is an eerie scene with many robed figures networked into an ominous machine at the center.

Here are some thumbnail ideation sketches and a few test blockout renders I did to try and get a good composition:

I’m not sure yet if I’ll do the final in Eevee or Cycles (If I even get that far)

Edit:

I’m not super happy with it, but meh.

That’s an interesting idea for network. That looks like the mood is coming together. What if you could do more of a top view?

I liked that parclite gave references to his render methodology last week (beautiful render last week btw). I will do the same.

The trick is that crackle isn’t in the 2.93 voronoi node now…but…here’s how to replicate it:

A network of cracks in lava. Open - the horse statue is from polyhaven.com and the fairy lights are the same ones I made for my lampshades scene a while ago. I wanted to use the horse for testing shaders, then I saw the topic for this weekend and was inspired to do cracked lava.

Whoah you recreated my scene so quick! Haha. Thanks for the Idea. I definitely need to explore more ideas. I think that may have communicated the idea better than my final product, haha.

It became something different. It now hangs on the wall.
