Looking good! The top image is my favorite. I'd love to do more landscapes but the render times do my head in.
Those are all pretty good images!
I'd call the second one the weakest and the first one the best; the last two I adore but they're sort of a different visual genre, if that makes sense? The second one feels like the highlights are maybe blown out a little too brightly by the lights. I'd use any of them as a desktop. I like the surreality of them.
Is this Lux? The water in the first one looks extraordinary.
immense amounts of postwork are what gives some of my renders the "crispness" you see, and i also use a non-commercial render script that i coded, as you can see more of here:---http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/20102/
here is another pack of renders that i just got out of the pixel oven today.
---p.s how would i show you fellas some of my animation? id love to get advice on them.
Uploading them to YouTube and linking them here is the usual way.
Have you thought about offering a commercial version of your script? I'm sure there'd be a market for it.
I feel like the green water/liquid methane/whatever in the second pic doesn't work with the color scheme. It looks clashy somehow. Maybe a slightly different, less saturated or darker green?
A youtube link would do it.
thank you, i will have some ani up soon, there actually pretty cool i think :D--- also, SickleYield, i need to get the hang of uv mapping and then i will start putting my armors and such on render sites, and if i like how all that works, i may release a tutorial on how to produce my heavy coded render engine. which by the way i call the "render oven" as in the renders go in it to bake. and come out crispy.
