You're a talented fellow, Telarus.

Nice work.

This thread makes me want to fire up blender again... Been years since I did any 3d stuff though. Would probably have to do a spaceship or something equally simple.

Reading this thread makes me wish I could just sit down for two years and do nothing but learn how to do 3D and CGI.

Latest project for my Organic Modeling class: the human torso!

[Jasper]

Telarus made this. 

In a cave.

Here's a landscape render I'm working on:

You know it's good when I see it and want to go there in a jeep.

Update - Final Render (Ortho-Oblique map projection - basically no perspective/fore-shortening). Also, this was down-sized by Picasa.

Update bump:

Having received a new (64bit!) system (as I blew the powersupply AND the graphics card on the old Dell), I have rendered this scene to test my new setup (I also got a 'workstation' Quadro 580 video card).

The pic in the above post took 20-24 minutes to render on my old machine.

Now it take FIVE MINUTES AND 15 SECONDS!!!!!

My euphoria is only balanced in the Chao by the amount of money I had to spend this week to finish my homework 






FIVE MINUTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Captain Utopia]

Sweet!  Does that mean that we'll be treated to more renders soon?

[Triple Zero]

Is it possible to make the trees less copy-pasted looking?

[Telarus]

IT IS NOW! 

yeah, I could only use 3 tree models, or my old system would scream in pain and crash maya (and if you notice the trees are 2d billboards  ).

I'm grabbing this program right now on recommendation of my instructor (apparently it's what they used for Oblivion):

Current Work in Progress:



mental ray (Raytraced), with displacement and megaTexture

render-time: 9 seconds

Need to finish up structures and start working on plant life.

Some lighting and texturing experiments from class:
