another render in 8K (38 mins with a i7 6700)
no issues, normalization in post
Exceptional. You once again touch on perfection.
I contine to be amazed at your lighting achievements - and frustrated by not knowing how you did them. :)
Head Wax recently constructed and shared a product for making a realistic rain scene. Any chance you could do something similar with a light kit?
Wow, Stezza and Magaremoto, I would like to associate myself with the gentleman's (UB) remarks.
+1
thanks very much... for your comments UB & D .. it surprises me that my images make such an impression.. very humbling
I am rendering Headwax's rain at the moment in another scene
it should be Sydney
needs tennis ball sized hail
Newcastle is in the zone too by looks

Stezza, misters Pugs look great, especially on white background!
thank you UB and the others, kind as usual; actually a light kit only wouldn't suffice because my rig will be working fine with texture maps but non with procedural shaders or material presets unless you adjust them greatly; it needs hi-res photos or pbr shaders to work at best; moreover some of you can see the image very clear and washed, due to very soft shadows; on my HP led monitor it looks pretty good but if you have been set the display for gaming possibly you'll have contrast issues. What I can do is to share my lighting system with passionate carrarists to make (or simply assist) demi pro animations
Getting back into Carrara again. Just doing some simple scenes to play with lighting techniques. First pic is the render from Carrara. I used a transparent plane in front of the camera with a noise shader to get that sorta ambient quality. I also added a noise gel to the spotlight to break it up a bit. Second pic is some post work in Fusion 9 (free and highly recommended). I just added a bit of a glow, film grain and some colour correction.

awesome... nice use of Carrara
don't forget to check out the latest Carrara Challenge as well...
The Hivewire3d puppies are now available.
Texture maps only? Sounds good to me!
A non-gaming monitor? I don't play games. :)
Passionate Carrarists only? Count me in!
The only caveat - you may give directions that I don't yet understand. I still have a lot to learn about this software. For example, I figured out how to set up soft shadows with distance lights only a sort time ago (the last Challenge).
Even so, if you are willing and you have the time, I look forward to your directions.
passionate and addicted to carrara
well, once DB got the idea to make a show reel, why don't you make a crossover team D/S + Carrara and try to get something like that? Carrara and Daz Studio + related renderers could be the right tools to have lot of fun with animations and that's the quicker way to learn carrara for sure
As for me, I'm always ready to jazz
same light rig on HF's forest drive, no issues, 2h render with 16 cores
huge jpeg compression in post (126 Mb native file size)
Santa gets an upgrade ..
Hi Stezza ..
Since this litle guy just showed up in the shop.. I guess you were the designated Carrara tester for it.
I just bought him. To cute to leave him.
But it won't work in Carrara. Them bones are not conected to the body. The bodymorphs work, but the bones are just moving with no influence on the object.
I did not get this plucky little fellow, did you try converting him to blended weight ?

Thank You Bunyip02 !
That did the trick. One thing though, I saved him as a Actor and not as a Character.
I see I have a lot of chatching up to do in the forum....
Glad you got it sorted, happy rendering !
New shiny toy.
New shiny toy. No postwork.
Just getting caught up. Great work everyone. Sorry for not commenting on older work, but I did enjoy it..
Hope everyone celebrated some winter (or summe0 solstice festivals of your choice. From me, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Beautiful reflections, Veronika. I also got some shiny new toys but haven't had time to do a render.
The pug dog is so muh fun, glad to see that it works in carrara.
Magaremoto, another fantastic soft lighting job on the HF scene. Very realistc.
Jungle boy prehistoric times, lovely render !!!
magaremeto, Stezza, mschack_ff02f39769, very nice work !!!
Bunyip, thank you very much!
thank you guys
same lighting rig with or without 1% intensity caustics
my first 10K ever, no issues
long live carrara
and all who sail in here!
nice render Margaremeto - so clean and precise
care to explain how it is 10 k sorry to be ignorant
thz head wax
I'm testing huge sizes (multiple of 2K) to better emphasize textures within carrara and, at the same time, avoid time-consuming bump filter whereas the detailed map allows to get rid of it (usually 4K resolution or more)
with the following sunny w.i.p. I'm trying to tune up caustics (50% intensity here)
