Hello! This is my first time really doing an environment render with full planning, reference gathering, block-outs, and setting up specific lighting angles. I usually just make games and focus more on specific models and props rather than the scene as a whole. I've created three rough-draft block-out scenes and I wanted…
If you'd like you can watch the course on Marco Bucci about color & light. What I've learned is values & contrast, readability of an image is what makes it stand out, without it colors cannot make the image beautiful by itself. \\ You can see how much of a difference just playing around with the values & contrast affect's…
I`m not sure if it`s on my end, but images don`t load ? Try imgur, copy path for "direct link" to image then put it in the add image url. Then the images are inserted for in the body of the forum :)
I'd say since these images originated from 4chan all that info was in the actual image thread, accompanying the image, image working as a "look here about what I'm writing on", to later be spread threadless.
I'm not a big fan of the mouse-hover appearance; the image is almost totally obscured when the mouse is over an image. It's more common for the normal image to appear when the mouse is over it, and for the default image to be different.
Thanks for your feedback Eric! The below image is my final render, got really frustrated with the render at the end. Probably going to learn from my mistakes and apply it to the next render! You are right about the holes in the house, didn't realize until you pointed it out.
The images are too small to make any comment about really. Prepare some larger images and use the 'insert image' icon when posting, so each image is expandable here, not on another tab.
May be wise to just re-post the images here, as opposed to redirecting viewers to a different, and possibly unfamiliar forum. Where are the images hosted? You can use the image button or manual image tags
I have tweaked a lot of the lighting and polishing touches for this piece and actually posted up to Artstation as I would like to drop this project and move on to more art for now :) Generally quite happy with this one and most importantly feel that I learned alot about scanning workflows and mixing scans with procedural…
Thanks a lot for your insights Fabi and Alex ! I have the same feelings you describe, something looks off but can't figure out really what. I always have trouble finding great balance between contrast / Sharpness / Readability. That's definitely great advice and I will try what you said as soon as possible. The image you…
