Description

My very first Terragen 2 attempt, needed a little more than 87 hours to be rendered in 2200 x 1650. There were some render bugs in the lower section of the stone field, so I needed to cut it off. Not quite lucky 'bout the boulders' look... :( Happy New Year to all of you & all the best for the future! 21/12/2007 This one will be my last picture, edited here at the Terragen gallery; have a good time, Merry X-Mas & Happy New Year and all the best for the future, to all of you...

87 hours? I would never have THAT much patience. I think the problem with the rocks is that it looks like the same two or three rocks just turned at different angles. Try randomizing them a bit more and it will look more natural. The sky and background are really good though. Happy New Years and a wonderful 2007 to you and yours!

You have been hard at work and it shows. This TG2 is a real challenge. You have done well with the terrain and atmo. Regarding the rocks/boulders; take a visit to: http://paths.meltingice.net/tg2/terrain_mod.php . You will find two tutorials here that are very informative. One deals with the creation of rocks/boulders.

An inspiring render- I guess I'll keep my nose to the grindstone and hope to get to this point.

Top two-thirds of this image looks really good and lutzian already. You'll get it all together sooner or later!

Hi Lutz, already a fine render... you can improve your stones shaders by connecting to them a powerfractal with very little scale displacements.

Hi Lutz, nice one for the first! You can add a twist and shear shader to it, and i change the color variation slider in the color tab of the fakestones shader a bit.

The atmosphere and clouds are really GREAT! I sure admire your persistance! 87 hours..... Not only am I having problems with the learning curve, but I'd go NUTS waiting for the Render!!! :-) GREAT First Try!!

Even if the stones look strange, this render is really nice. The background is splendid, so are the clouds. More than 80 hours ? I know that... ;o)

87 Stunden? Ach du meine Ge... Ein sches erstes TG2 Bild, toll wie die Wolken vor dem Berg im Hintergrund hgen, das verleiht dem Ganzen eine mhtige Dimension. Ok, die Steine sehen etwas geometrisch aus, aber das Licht-Schattenspiel auf dem Boden macht das wieder weg. Ich glaube wenn du das Proggi erst mal richtig im (Wge-)Griff hast, gibts ordentlich was auf die Glubscher ^^.
