    Thanks very much for the entrant's prize (to Firstbastion and to Britney for their extra efforts today). Not the most artistic examples yet, but here's my first look at Ice World...

    If you ever decide to throw C3P0 into the shot, there's footprints displacement maps in that set. :-)

    Quick mash I did, took Hilly Surround and played with the left side morphs a bit, then added the Steppes Rock Outcrops (West side) then added some of Andrej's Forest Pines (nice looking Northern trees) , and LisaB tall grasses and ferns.

    yup i knew about the foot prints, almost use it to kind of suggest 3PO wandered off the other way. If anyone knows of a good C3PO figure let me know. I've been collecting a few SW figures and props.

    Space Colony
    Owing to well-intentioned but ill-advised pressure from environmental groups to reduce, reuse and recycle, one of the earliest space colonies was constructed of recycled components from an Arctic research center on Earth.

    Used:
    Lunar Craters Moonscape
    Arctic Research One

    Thanks again, FirstBastion, and thank you, DAZ_Britney!

    Here's an arctic colonist coming in for a victory lap after capturing a bored smart cable that went off exploring. AI cabling is notoriously hard to catch once it gets out.

    The cable is from Stonemason's site. The sky ferns are by Ethin.

    Thank you FirstBastion, Britney and everyone who entered because your renders were wonderful!

    To show my appreciation, here's another render, this time with The Steppes. And since it is Monday morning and I loved the tutorial aspect of this contest, I've included another tutorial--mostly postwork.

    Title: Steppes Dancer

    Rendered this for one of the PC contests

    See what happen when you hold contests and give away prizes... People start using your stuff all over the place!

    This is called "Beacon" using Breaking Waves
    This works superbly in Vue - it's very hard to create height fields for waves, and this does is absolutely perfect!
    Wave caps added with Ron's Clearwater - two quick tips for when using brushes (in the spirit of the contest): brackets left and right on the keyboard change the size, and right click to get your brush shapes.

    Now with this done, I'm doing to travel to the Arctic!

    Again, yr great. Thanks

    I keep telling myself I've got to spend some time immersed in Vue. Such a versatile program. That water shader looks good.

    I have to say, All the followup images on this page have been great. Very nice indeed.

    okay here is a very first render with the landscape of the land of the ice cold sun and trees from forest elements and forest winter by Andrey Pestryakov, the skydome and clouddome with fixed textures by me if from ultimo paradiso the snow is from cold winter by halcyone at renderosity.

    using the light included in the scene of the land of the ice cold sun but with less intensity (was relativly fast made so the quality of the image is not sooo good, was more a testrender to see how the different products because of the snow work together)

    :)

    have also made postwork in the render with some painting effects as you can see :)

    You mean like "the same color as the fire truck, but blue"?

    Yeah, exactly the same, but smaller and rounder and less spikey.

    Was digging around deep in the forum to find a screen for the spiral descent question and stumbled on this contest.

  • TotteTotte Posts: 13,977

    I remember this one, was fun indeed!

  • FirstBastionFirstBastion Posts: 7,762

    I think the asking for the "how it was assembled" screens  really helped raise all our creativity.  We were all learning from each other in those days.

    I didn't have a computer good enough to do a decent render when this contest existed. Ever think of doing another one, everyone seems to have loved this one.

    LOL well as great an idea as the RRR challenge is, I have all my stuff categorized in different etra libraries, such as one for characters, one for clothes, one for dforce...etc etc etc. As such it would not be possible to use a randomizer. I categorize everything and I manually install everything.

    just categorize your store emails, och your products list in the storepage

    Ok and how do I do that. I've never tried anything like that before.
