Description

Many, many hours of work to obtain this picture. Some of the early settings were made with Christianfly (for our 'Tiwinoa' teamwork) but I changed most of all. The terrain was made with WM 1.25 (size 2049 x 2049). Final render : 4800 x 3600 pixels (more than 21 hours of rendering !) Postwork : resize & sharpen. - Thanks for viewing & comments - I would especially like all the advices to improve the realism of the render :)

Pretty awesome work, definetely worth all the time and effort :-) I really like the watersettings, great patches! Technically all very well, so I only have some suggestion based on personal preferences, like slightly lighter shadows. The sand looks a bit too white to my taste, but I know that's what you were aiming for so just forget this :0) lol Rocks and bumpy grass surfaces look really good, so does the terrain. Just excellent work!

Water settings are amazing. This is really work well spent. I don't really have much advice. Perhaps the atmosphere could be a little more tropical? or the underwater surfaces could be a little more precise. . .but I'm searching for things that I don't see immediately. I would suggest, do a search for images of Venezuela. There's a place I've been, called Los Roques (I think that's the spelling) which has, I think, exactly the kind of tropical island beaches you're aiming for. Might help, or at least be interesting. Good luck!

An amazing island. Love your surfaces, but would only change the water colors if possible to give the 'white' sand less of a starkness. Beautiful POV and superb light.

Nice laguna, and beautifull colour: About green surfacing, may be that lower high slopes in high altitude could improve the surface variation. Anyway Well done!!

Don't change a thing. I don't know how you got the inner ring of water to look like a coral reef. Can you please explain how you accomplished this image. Thanks.
