The August challenge for Carrara is open for business over in the Daz forum. 

 

Carrara Challenge #19: Above and Beyond

"Above and Beyond" refers to anything that takes place above the surface of the earth. This could include anything from a space scene from your favorite space opera, a WW1 dog fight, a trip in a hot air balloon, to a romantic dinner on your 15th floor balcony overlooking a scenic park. So, fly a kite, climb a tree, or pull a parachute cord, but do it with Carrara as part of your workflow.

Basic Rules

1. Each participant may submit up to 2 images into the Challenge.
2. Images must be new (previously unpublished).
3. Images must be primarily set up in Carrara.
4. Images must be rendered in Carrara or in an external renderer for which there is a Carrara plug-in (e.g. LuxRenderer, Octane)
5. At least one WIP (work in progress) image must be posted to the WIP thread (this can be as simple as the scene setup, a pre/post post-work comparison or just a final image with a brief description of the process you used or as complex as modeling rooms shots, shader setups or partial scene setups or test renders)
