The rocks, clouds, water, and background trees look really great! Even the grass in the foreground looks good too. I agree with ~orinoor about the waterline and the tree in the foreground, it looks like it several different kinds of leaves on it. It is too bad they don't have better ones to offer, because it is the one thing that keeps this render from looking like a real photo.

dang it, i have always wanted to try and make my own but i know i wouldn't be able to do it in max and i'm pretty sure you can do it in vue but i have no idea how. so far i've just been using defaults.

I know some of the techniques they use for leaves, when modeling trees in Maya or some other programs, and they usually look good in the distance, but not close up.
One day, I'll actually open up the practice version of Vue, and get into it. I'm sure my stuff will look awful compared to yours. I have done environment models in a program called MojoWorld, but It's so difficult and the vegetation really sucks.
Have you looked online, in forums, to see if anybody else has come up with a solution to make a good looking tree?

i've been always meaning too, but it's hard to find a vue forum (even the vue website doesn't have one) And most of the time when you do find something it always consists of things from the VUE store(where you can buy trees and other things) which i am too broke for
never knew art was so expensive to make
if you want to try out vue start with the pioneer version, that one should be free(Although i don't imagine it being all too powerful and have all the full features of the PLE but it doesn't have that nasty watermark that covers the WHOLE image)

Wow, it seems like there would be info out there somewhere. That program is so hot, I mean so many people are using it now.
Yeah, it is very expensive. I wish I had money for all the programs I want.
I downloaded sometime ago, and I'm not sure which one it is. I'll look into it. Thanks for the info.

Just had a look through your whole gallery and you're getting much better!
Keep up the work and remember that *NOTHING* you do in Vue is a waste of time. Even if you work on a scene for 4 hours and it still looks crap you've still learnt something...
There's a new Vue book coming out VERY soon which I was the Editor of, It's by QuadSpinner studio's. You've probably heard of them. If not, Dax (founder) is an amazing teacher and if you can spare the $$ for his video tutorials I strongly suggest it. Or wait for the book to be released and it has all sorts of amazing stuff in it that I can't talk about

nice plug there for the book
i will keep an eye out for it. i would love to get as much material as i can to learn.
and who doesn't know dax and quadspinner

Dude,the more I look back at this picture,the more I want to study.
-_- I'm gonna be a freaking Naruto going "I'm going to be a great artist one day,BELIEVE IT!"
People will eventually become annoyed lol.

lmao, that's kinda how i am. when i find something cool i study the picture until i can attempt to recreate it. this one was just a random from my head.
i'm probably as dedicated as Naruto. hide somewhere with my scroll trying to learn kage bunshin

hi, i reallyl like this rendering. The trees and the water are looking very real. The only thing that bugs me is the connection between the water and the rocks. You can see alot of waves on the water surface but on the corner of the rocks there are't any. I would also darken this areas with an ambient occlusion because the rocks should drop a shadow onto the waters surface.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i wish i could darken it with ambient occlusion but i have no idea how haha. i used global radiosity for the light which is the most realistic highest quality light. so according to VUE that's how it should be. As for now my photoshop post work skills and lighting skill are still not as good as i would want them and i have A LOT of room for improvement. I'll keep what you said in mind for the next piece i do and see if i can make it better!
thank you so much for the comments and suggestion!

I like this one as well! The water still looks amazing and the terrain is always beautiful in your renders. The lighting as well, is great. I like this piece!

Totally better! I'm rendering a HUGE scene! I MEAN HUGE!!!! 10 almost 40 hours put into it. But it's heavy with light, so...

yikes. i'm going to be working on a big one later. the render time i'm expecting is scaring me
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
... the only words of encouragement I can offer is.... make dang sure it looks good in the preview render before you do a final render.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah rumor has it you need to get it to look like you would want the final render to be in preview. that way final will be even better than expected

if i hadn't seen the previous version i would've thought this was a photograph

Nicely done, your terrain work looks very natural and the water is just right. I would suggest adding a darker material to your terrain at the waterline and you might try using a better quality tree for your foreground (the tree you have now has that curled plane look). Excellent image, really!
