Description

This is a test render for a shelved collaborative project. The image was inspired by the events of Desert Storm. The Soviet made T-80 MBT was a converted 3DS mesh I downloaded and took apart to create this derelict.

Looks pretty nicely done, nice detail. I often hate converting 3DS meshes, cause sometimes it doesn't convert right so I have to fix everything. Nice work ^^

Thanks. Greeg72 - can't remember where I got that 3DS mesh, but it took me 4 hours to convert, optimize and resurface. Could use another 4 hours though. I had a problem with the sky for this image. I couldn't get sky tracer and hypervoxels to work together, so I tried a background image instead... that didn't work either. I had to settle for a gradient sky. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you :) Wish I could take credit for the tank, but I downloaded this one several years ago while still mucking around in 3DS - can't remember where I found it tho. I only resurrected the mesh and converted it to LWO. Discovered a nifty little trick with hypervoxels also. You don't need to animate them to make them work in a still render. Just use a column/cone of points and play with the hypervoxels settings. You'll get better control of massing, and if you build it remembering to rest-on-ground it becomes easy to pretend that there's wind blowing using rotation in layout. - Mbius87

The tracks in the sand really add that extra realistic touch to this image. Great work :)

You are too kind, m'lady. Bump map created using a wacom tablet and the inability to draw straight lines. 1 color map layer, a displacement map, 2 diffusion maps and 3 bump maps (including the tracks in the sand).
