Here we go guys, i'm on holiday at the moment but you have to be faithful to Bryce no matter what hahah (actually its a rainy day);
this is the first image that came to mind when i read the challenge thread. i hope its suitable.
again i have gone for a Bryce render. to show what our little programme can do. and as i have been having some success with clouds and mist lately, and have found ways to keep volumetric render times low. so i went for it - and heres a few behind the scenes shots.

then textured and added to a ground plain, with an edge of Bryce, out of the box shrubbery

rinsed and repeated, then built a crop duster plane (nothing specific just built from imagination) placed it and then added the smoke trail spheres

so that's how you do a smoke trail. Been trying to get one done for my last render (Bryce part's finished...at least)...I'll keep this in mind for next time.

I like your way of making a field, I might borrow that idea (not for this contest) someday if it's ok :) Back to Top [edit post] [delete post] [delete] [change content advisory] [print] [save]
