Forest 03 - The Ranger’s Camp
“I walked briskly onwards, for darkness was closing in. The birds, which had still been singing loudly as the last rays of evening
sunshine gleamed through the wood, were suddenly quiet, and I almost began to feel frightened in the midst of the eerie rustling of the trees.”

Third full nature render. This time I was going for a foggy and mythical look while keeping the actual extent of the motive enclosed. In the start, it was planned as a pure nature render, but as things progressed I came up with the idea of adding a small and simple camp, which also allowed me to include some contrasting elements as focal point. The terrain and texture masks I used were the result of some first experiments with World Creator.
