Hi everyone, I’ve built a little scene that I want to share with you guys. I am interested in your opinion.
I used: E-Cycles and the Graswald addon. The rendering time at 3000px height was around 1.5 hours - although actually only the lower half had to be rendered.
I then added the sky and look in Photoshop. The sky and the clouds are a mix of different images.
Mainly I wanted to test the new Sky Node. I think that’s really great. I just noticed that as soon as I press F12 and it loads the assets, it resets the values. So I created two nodes. The node that is not connected is reset. The one that is connected then retains the values. Do you have the same problem?
Looks fantastic, the only thing that struck me are the reflections in the foreground that reflect a blue sky while the scene has a lovely stormy look, it could be an out of camera clear patch but I had to think a bit. Anyway I think it is really good and has a lovely mood to it, well done.
@Raikuzu Had to google that, but yeah, you’re right! Pretty much in that direction. Thank you!
@DNorman Yes, that’s right, I should have reduced the dynamics / saturation. Or that the sky is reflected in it. On the other hand, I think that’s pretty good because it gives the foreground more details. Thank you!
Great stuff! really like the mood of the final shot.
Out of curiosity, what did you use for the mountains / hills? I’m trying to do similar scenes and struggling to find a workflow that doesn’t crash my poor PC ):
