i thought i would contribute a small image i have been working on, it's not great...but im happy with it :)
Hi and welcome. Nice image
+1 from me. I really like the POV and how the trees cast shadows on the rocks below. Nicely done.
thanks
well done tim very nice :D better than mine lmao least yours looks real
@timothybateman: Welcome to the forum. Your scene is very nice. Water and shadows are nicely done. The branch hanging over the water is a nice touch.
ty for the compliments...i will put up a better quality render ...i did that on my laptop ...ile have to do one on my PC now, its a bit more powerfull :)
i cleaned up the scene a bit :)
Can I scratch my WIP #1? I had a computer crash and lost everything. I did have all my content saved on an external hard drive so I can just install and such but I don't have the scene file I saved for the WIP because it was on the pc drive in my docuements. I plan to start from new though if that is okay.
Yes that's fine.
@timothy: Because the rocks on the bottom of the stream show better, I like your first image more. I do, though, like the far end reflection on the water in your second image. As I usually say, still, a very nice image.
Great, absolutely beautiful entries from everyone.
My first entry, the chest is either from archive3d or 3dbar, not sure which site as I downloaded it a while ago. I had problems with the streaming rays. I tweaked Dan's fog, tried it on different primitives then settled for a skewed cylinder.
Fool’s Gold.
@fictionalromance - nice entry, sorry to hear about your misbehaving computer.
@Pam - nice work in the Subterranean Stream.
@GussNemo - I like the colour of the mountains.
@Jay - excellent duck perspective.
@mtnmen - what a great idea.
@dana365 great waterfall, particularly the animation. Incredibly many trees.
@Magikweaver - very sweet scene.
@timothybateman - very nice scene, I like the second more because of the enhanced specular on the river.
@mermaid010 - looks great but I miss the water.
Here's my second try.
Title: Small River
Product used: Bryce 7.1 Pro - Vegetation
Nice entries, I love your Ideas :-)
Many rivers... . So I put another river to his brothers here :-)
My first entiry, Wild river:
another attempt at this scene "flowing life" :)
Wondefull entry from everyone! I particularly like Horos and Timothybatemans one. I've got to work hard on my project to be worthy.
i wouldn't say you would have to work harder, i saw your entry and i thought it looked great! very interesting idea also :) ...but thanks for the compliment.
@Horo: Thanks. Your new scene reminds me of a place I lived with a creek nearby. We collected frog eggs and stripped raspberry bushes bare. That's a really nice scene.
@yellow Pen: I'm sure glad I don't have to navigate that river. Nice work.
@timothybateman: Latest scene is awfully nice. Love the look of the water.
Light streaming through the window.
Cho, that is fantastic!! Years ago, when I was still playing in Bryce 4, I tried a tutorial for light streaming through a window (though not a fancy one like in yours), and I just couldn't for the life of me get the light in the correct position to get it to do what I wanted. You did a great job on this. :coolsmile:
@ cho ...awesome looking scene :) ...I really like stain glass windows.
@Pam: Love the colors in that scene. Really nice work.
@yellow Pen - that's a very violent stream.
@Pam - very nicely done. I didn't realise what mermaid010 did and complained about the missing water: streaming light, why didn't that occur to me?
Thanks all.
The window is part of the old "The Study" from RHS (now Jack Tomalin) and I just tweaked the glass texture included with a filter called "Kyoto Color" from flaming pear before applying it to the window pane in the transparency channel as well as the diffuse and set trans at 100%. Used a sunset type sky I had done and played with it till I got the sun in the right position to stream through the window. The light rays are a cone (of course) and again I played with the settings in the mat room having applied the default "lit rays" mat from Bryce 5. I added a colour channel in the 4th spot in diffusion, which is set at "interpol+interferences" No value to it, it is just in both diffusion channels
cho my friend thats just lovely!
Thanks for the tidbits on how you accomplished it, as it really came out great. :coolsmile:
Chohole... What a gorgeous scene... Being a stained glass artist, my self, for nearly 40 years I can really appreciate what you have done here... The general lighting and color casting rays are superb. I might try to do a scene like this using some of my actual window designs... I'm really wowed by this.
Thanks
Steve
Well, not exactly what I wanted or what I started out with, but if I keep messing the the @#$% thing it'll never get posted. I guess it'll pass...
Most of the things I work on never end up looking anything like they did when I started. Nice scene.
Chohole...very nice lighting ffect, and, a play on the word 'stream'. When the theme was first proposed, my initial thought was...hmmm....now how could I integrate a render of the Jet 'Stream' into a Bryce work...hehe...gave up in the end ;)
Lord Ganthor...love it. Can understand your frustration in when to continue or end a work. Just a suggestion, and I know you didn't ask for any, but how would skewing the camera down a little and get a reflection of the 'Fairy?' in the water - might add to the scene, as Byrce does great reflections.
