Spectacular 3D Entry: Julien Daulte

[Lemog]

Thanks for replying... I understand... I would have made the same thing :)

[thebest]

cool scene but I don`t like the street very much :D may be you can make a little displacments on it
just an opinion

[Goul]

Really cool buildings, nice work :thumbsup:

[SONIC-X]

cant wait to see it finnished.

[gpepper]

Excellent update !

[madshooter]

Hey this a rocking update Julien :buttrock: I like the reflections, looks cool dude.

Waiting to see your next step:)

[gu]

Hi Daulte. You´ve created a nightshot scene perfectly. I´ve observed the image for minutes. The mirrored building are very realistic and the street lighting too..ahm the lights inside the towers casting shadows on the ground looks great!
best,
Gus

[shakes]

superb update Jdd! the texturing looks really nice-love the old one on the left. I can imagine how this will look with the explosion reflecting on the center bulding. very good work

[jddog]

:: the best
well street is in this moment with no texture, when I will paint the texture I'm sure you will have more pleasure on it !

:: Goul
Thank you so much... and is not finished all the work...

Very Cool texturing. Can't wait to see more of your work.

A really impressive update. The textures are absolut believable. :thumbsup:

[rattlesnake]

wow mate...your modeling is very high quality for the buildings..i see u took care for every detail there, i also just saw your texturing images, i have to say is a very good work, i really like this entry:bounce::bounce:

[madshooter]

Updates please:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[cHum]

wow, good job.:thumbsup:

[jddog]

Hi all,
sorry for so long wait. up-dates are on the way, just I have a remouval to do in this week and I didn't have so much time... thanks for all your support and hope I will find enough time to watch all your thread too... :wip:
at very soon...
jdd

[Pooyag]

great,cant wait for it:thumbsup:

[sergioKomic]

I like your concept veeeeeeeeeeeeeery much!

But you know it will come down to "post effects" eh?
So all this nice modelling will mean nothing if the flames/explosion are not well done,

In other words GET GOING:deal: :buttrock: :wip:

[Lemog]

up-dates are on the way,

You are forgiven :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[aliasali]

maaan,this entry is going to be a BIG one! i will check the updates,just keep doin it man,it might be really cool!

[Maxter]

Good texturing work

nice details and lighting:thumbsup:

[Zapan]

Update :bounce: , update :bounce: , update:bounce: :scream:

[ODoul]

I'm watching you ...

[alancamara]

Wow the scene is great. I liked of the mirror on the bulding, very realistic. I'm waiting for more update :thumbsup:

[melkao]

very nice, the ligths are veri good, and the perspective too.....Good work:thumbsup:

[soapy]

Coming along really nicely JD. The window reflections look really good. And the lighting at street level should work out realy well once you get the textures and sidewalks etc all put in. Getting better all the time. cheers

Ok, I take a little break from the architectural modelling and textureing and try to do some test on the flame/smoke of the explosion. For now I don't think about debris, glass break, metallic structure in the impacta and explision. I will just made some test on the pyrocluster materials (all volumentric) and the particle control.

Here the wire (on the simplified city model, most easy to work with) of the particles and volume of the pyrocluster material.

Next images the render result.

I have to admit that I'm not 100% satisfied about the result, I have to test more... here the first 2 images (click on the image to view on scale the render in case).

here the other two test made
(click on the image to view on scale the render in case).

[imbusion]

Wow, those are some beautiful explosions :). (I've been followin the thread from the concept and think the buildings are incredible, too!)

Advice?... I'm sure you're quite aware that in the end we'll want to still be able to see your wonderfully detalied car through the smoke, so no sense begging you to do something that is already on your priority list for sure :P.

Just a question, I guess... what is causing the explosion in this scene?

(keep on truckin, this is great fun to watch! :) )

[Pooyag]

another great image...that's cool Julien keep it up dude:thumbsup:

[Lemog]

For me, there's more explosive motion in the #4... but with some fire ejected particules... :thumbsup:

[shakes]

looking great jdd- it's a bit hard to tell at the moment which is best without seeing the effect the flames have on the reflections of the buildings- the black smoke stands out a bit, but for sure will be blended in better when the other buildings are visible.
the flame and explosion looks very convincing-must get pyrocluster! I like number 3 and 4 the best so far.

[Zapan]

Holy c**p , all these 4 are amazing, I understand the difficult choice you have :eek:

I would say 2 or 4 though flames on 4 could mask the car a little bit too much to me but I guess that is tweakable.

Outsatnding job here Julien :applause:

[pseudonympending]

Hey, very cool. I've done some simple explosion tests for my entry but hey don't look nearly that good. What technique are you using?

I personally like number 4 because there is less smoke. I don't know if i'm right on this but it would seem to me that there would be less/no smoke at the front of the explosion due ot the force of the blast.

Check out this link for a wicked, pretty hi-res expolsion which, if nothing else, proves you're definately on the right lines...

http://media.militaryphotos.net/photos/My-favourite-pics/ada?full=1

[jddog]

I don't know if i'm right on this but it would seem to me that there would be less/no smoke at the front of the explosion due ot the force of the blast.

You are right David... I've also to work more on this efx. Like I wrote that are only tests to view what directions and settings (especially particle duration time/live) are better. Now I think that the explosion go to far away for example and for the smoke you have right... I will continue to test... :wip:

Tecnique... not so particular. I started to set a particle duration time, a illumination time and then I work with all pyrocluster setting to analyze wich one change or modify in a good direction the fire efx... Is really a step by step method. Very time consuming... but work fine. The most importat thing I noticed is to be fixed with particle live time. To obtain this kind of fx you are obliged to anim the scene so this allow you to show the correct evolution of the pyro material from the born to the end of the particle life. When you are fixed with this you can test all differet PC settings...

btw many many thanks for the great link... :bounce: I was searching something like that. Ty so much !!!

:: Stéphane (Zapan)
merci pour le support...

:: shakes
Ty for comment... to reduce drastically render times i decided to work without reflections, I'm agree that is a bit hard, but now I will test the main dynamic and general look of the fire...

:: Lemog
:beer: et come d'hab avec champagne no beer ;) lol...

:: 3rd user
ty !

:: jeff - imbusion
ty so much for your comment and following what I do... hee what causing the explosion... to driver to be sure do destroy all the office he pout some gasoline vereywere... the bum... heee... mostly is just to increase the spectacularity of the action... :D

thanks so much to all you !!! :wip: I have othe buildings to model and work more on this explosion...

jdd

[icedeyes]

very very nice explosion test Julien and the textures on the buildings (previous updates) look cool...:thumbsup: just one thing that has been kind of bugging me is the camera angle you use... In concept, it seemed perfect but now with the textures and all, it seems like some parts of the image seem too flat and close together... maybe a depth of field could fix it right away or it might just be me..

[jddog]

just one thing that has been kind of bugging me is the camera angle you use...
oh yeah... this camera allows me to view all what I modelled, but in all case this will not be the final camera, totally agree with what you tell here... Just in this case I have a view on all elements... a very wip camera... When I will be fixed with environment & explosion I will search the better camera angle/position...

ty for comment
jdd

[daWinky]

Aah, an update!Your explosion testing looks very promising, it's hard to decide between the different versions. It really depends on your priorities, wether you want to show more the explosion itself or more of the impact...I'm watching curiously your progress!:thumbsup:

-sabrina

[thebest]

cool ! I like the second test alot keep it up :thumbsup:

[jfelrod1960]

jdog this is looking great! Seems like test 4 will let you see more of the object. Is there anyway you can show a closeup of the 4 views?

Great work! :thumbsup:

[madshooter]

I really like the 3rd explosion, cause its dense fire, smoke and still I am able to see the car
Rocking update dude:buttrock:

[LAURO_MX]

Yeah!! Great Explosions! :buttrock:
I liked the number 4...
c ya

[ThierryS]

Nice explosion and work sofar. Keeps it up :thumbsup:

[alancamara]

Hi, great explosion. i liked the first option. Nice work. :thumbsup:

[suk-grigorij]

Great fire and smoke effect on the last update. I wisg I could do the same quality effects. But, as I understood,you want to catch the moment when car is breaking through the building wall,right? So, in this case, there can't be this kind of smoke effect. This kind of smoke will apear fewseconds later. Don't you think so?

[ihamid]

hi jdd

cool progress and the fire tests rock! like the test 4 but also like the complexity of the flames in test3 and 2!
cheers man!

[Borro]

Hmm I think test 3 looks best. :) Keep it up :P

[Max 234666 cccp]

Great fire - AfterBurn ???

[angel]

Great explosion jddog, looks very cool.

[Grin3d]

:thumbsup:
Great Update. I like test 3, but I think it should have less smoke and fire could be "wider". Show us some more tests :D

Roman.

[Larsen]

nice shot man :)

those renders looks very promising and your projects will be succesfull for you if you keep this quality all along !

keep it up mate :thumbsup:

[jddog]

Great fire - AfterBurn ???

Thanks all for all your comments. Some people point me here about smoke, and you have right... I will work on this

You're right !
The best thing to do is a Lemog technic:
Stay with her in the evening, go to bed with her. And when she is sleeping, you can wake up and work all night long...
I hope that your wife sleeps well... :argh:

with children is really harder, I believe you... but a chance that you can say that they must go early at bed, so you can have your time. Hoping that they go early at bed :D

I like the size of explosion 4 but I like the character of explosion 3. :-)

Heila, I'm back like promise ! :D

here is a small up-date, not a real hardcore up-date, I know, but... finally the building on the lest is here.

Here all what is planned.

Put lights on buildings, draw all street texture, add some trees on front of the CAA building, etc so I can fix all pricipal environment elements.

The second part (probably next week) it will be dedicated to medelling all the needed cars...

at very soon again :wip:

[SuperXCM]

He cool work here, it can be a really spectacular final image, hope you can get time to post soon!! keep going! :beer:

cool perspective, and very nice escenary:thumbsup:

[dannyfalch]

Very cool action packed concept!

-but OMG you need to model at least 10 cars:scream:
good luck man!

I have a cheep old burned out audi, ha ha..

the comp seames to be great with a touch of the matrix.

I'll be back.

[Zapan]

Ahhhhh Finally :twisted: :scream: and this is still damn great :eek:

The glass effect on the main building is killing me. Just can't wait for all these details you talk about and of course your really cool fire effect.

Go go go Julien :wip: :thumbsup:

[jddog]

-but OMG you need to model at least 10 cars:scream:
good luck man!
grrrr... I know.... grrrr I'm interested about the cheap Audi: how much ? :D + :scream:

Ty so much all !
Today other up-dates, propably the first part of the street texture.
At later :wip:

[JamesMK]

Nice to see some action here again, dawg :D

Enjoy the car modeling... though after the first two one sort of gets into the groove, so number three and so forth isn't that bad at all.

great to see you back jdd!!

[Lemog]

Little but nice update Juju... about 10 cars... you just need 10 roofs, not ? :scream: hahaha

And here we are with something more interesting... Street texture need more work, but slowly I think the environment looks more interesting.

I think is time to model some car now ...

at next up-date

Very nice update with the lighting! I really like the twisted reflection in the mid building - it adds a lot to the scene.
Looking forward to the cars now :thumbsup:

Wow amazing updates Julien :eek:

All these Camera view are great !! To me I prefer, the last one and the very first one (celle du concept sketch).

Have fun with all the damages , debris and stuff
Keep up the great work mate :bounce:

[Strannik]

Look Nice. :)

[Gunilla]

Difficult choice... I really like the mid one or the one from yesterday - there's something about the very straight, correct view that make the scene even more dramatic. The car jumping out from a window is not what you expect to see in a shot like that if you get what I mean ... hmm, sometimes my english isn't enough.
It's turning out really well whatever choice you make I'd say :thumbsup:

[madshooter]

Last option looks real cool dude:thumbsup: It has a cinematic feel:)

[beelow]

Oh , that is looking nice, sorry wasn't here much, in the 3d. But, your stuff is looking great! One thing that I is kinda strange is that the reflections on the windows seem a bit odd, are they suppose to look like that, maybe I should read through the thread, damn that is a lot, let me know something! great stuff so far!:thumbsup:

[jddog]

:: soapy
thanks !

:: the best
ty so much for support ! Yep broken glasses and othe rstuff wil be made, this will be a very important part of the fx to create a strong action/dynamic of the crash and explosion...

:: Zapan
yep the concept skecth camera was my first idea... but the last render probably will permit to have a closer look at the action... I'm sure some test renders with fire and debris will permit to choose definitively the final camera...

:: gpashkov
ty so much !

:: Gunilla
relax, me 2 in english I sucks ! I undertand what you mean... we will se later with all efxs added...

::madshooter
thanks !

:: beelow
hey you have made strong concept on both 2D and 3D hope you will find time to finish these works... Well a reflection disturb is really necessary and keep in mind that the explosion will make vibrate the glasses... but no this probably will not be the final result !

at another up-date ! :wip:

jdd

[Maxter]

Good progress jddog, i like the latest camera angle:thumbsup:

Don't forget some dof and motion blur:)

[beelow]

thanx, glad u like my entries, just gotta find the time to do it, hopefully I will have both done in time, and thanx for the the update fo what you are suppose to be doing!:thumbsup:


Check back lata!:D

[gardogg]

Wow, this looks fantastic so far! Great work.

[shakes]

looks fantastic jdd!! I like the last one, and the second last- both are very dramatic.it looks very nice with all the buidings reflecting on eachother. certainly spectacular!

[gpepper]

It looks really great !
Nice to see U on the stuff again !

[marcom]

wow!

this is turning out to be great!
really nice details on your buildings.

cheers

The latest point of view is really the better now... that works well with the environment... strong mood now... orientation give more motion to action... good point...

a test with the complete explosion... any C&C are welcome

[sergioKomic]

Didnt we say you were going to use the other angle?

(you could see the car's reflection on the opposing building plus those advertising billboards looked great! )

Nice explosion so far!

[Lemog]

That seem particulary good... but with strange pink parts at the edge of explosion... but that can be different with the good version of environment with final reflections...

[Strannik]

Only one word: WOW.:drool:

[jddog]

but with strange pink parts at the edge of explosion...
I will take care ! ty !

::sergioKomic
yep about the angle but at this time I like to use this one... it give me something very dynamic... in any case this is not the final decision... just

Just a test... also I started to texturize the car and next I will work on damages too...

any C&C are welcome...

[daWinky]

Wow:eek: ! Already very impressive explosion! :thumbsup:

[Gunilla]

Couldn't say it better than Sabrina just did... awesome explosion, Julien :thumbsup:

[authentic]

I follow your thread since some times now but hadn't post yet.
Your work is cool, with great ambience (very matrix like). The fire adds a lot at your scene. Keep it up.
mY only crit would be about the car jamp which are two simple and present in such a detailled picture.

[AndyO]

wow - very nice...a feeling of vertigo seems to kick in from that angle if you look at it for too long! i felt like i was going to fall in....is this good?

[Zapan]

Pouaahhhh , this is incredible :eek: :eek: :applause:

Glass debris are just wonderful , great great work mate.
Only the explosion I find a bit too red...
But yeah that's truely spectacular , just WOW:bowdown:

[melkao]

great explosion and ambience, i think that this is a really good work:applause:

[basilisk]

I like the distorted reflection in the windows, but to be pedantic I think the distortion would not be continuous between individual panes. Each pane would have its own distortion and slightly different angle. Does that make sense?
(to be even more pedantic, I think double glazed window tend to bow inwards in the middle due to the vacuum between the panes)

[shakes]

the explosion looks fantastic jdd! very vivid. Possibly it needs a bunch of very tiny glass fragments as well? one thing,- are you planning on having cars/people on the street below? it would add to the drama I think. wonderful work.

[harryb]

This composition is fantastic! You really have a sense of vertigo. The explosion reads really well too. Have you thought of elongating and bluring the debris and explosion cloud? This might re-enforce the trajectory of the car.

This is a great concept for an illustration -- a car smashing through a highrise office window!

[imbusion]

Mmm, the shards/chunks of glass are just perfect! I've been watching this one from the start, and I am absolutely loving the fact that you're back in full swing and rocking once again :). The reflections in the buildings simply make me smile... the slight irregularities in the glass that give it the non-uniform reflection certainly add to the realism. Looking forward to seeing the damage on the car. Keep it up!

Cheers!

[velascodearmas]

Nice angle on the action!

[Lemog]

Each time it's better Juju...

But I find some interest in the balistik's remark... I don't know if that can works in your case... but I find that as an interesting idea to test... that certainly can enriched a lot your scene...

Bon taf gars :thumbsup:

[thebest]

cool work :thumbsup:

[Nakary]

wow. great job so far... I am sure this is going to be in the group of the best ones... I really like the image, it is really spectacular...

You might need to add some fire reflection on the other building, I reckon...

Comon.. finish my wallpaper man..!

Congrats.

[soapy]

Oh my god, that last render looks superb!

[jddog]

First thaks all for you encouragement... and sorry for my bad english: I write like a dog... I hope that all my answers will be comprehensible :)

:: Sabrina, Gunilla, melkao, dvelasco, the best, soapy
thanks so much for your kindness and support. Really apreciated :applause:

:: authentic
I hope when the scene will be coplete that you can feel perfectly the scene...

::AndyO
I think that a pretty cool sensation...

:: Zapan
Yes you are right. The render before I didn't have reflection. Making reflection active I noticed that the fire 'shader' become too flat, extremely red with a gradient that go to a pink colour. I have to work on this... Thanks to point me on this!

:: basilisk
What you wrote here yes it make sense. Working lone for long time on a image sometime make me ankylose my self sometimes and you have point me on an important detail. Reflection cover more that 50% of images and tecnically and physically you have right.
This is a must to do for the next (or very next) up-date. Thanks so much for this detailed comment... About the vaccom of planes this part probably will be very hard to do... but I will took this in consideration

:: shakes
Yep the bunch of tiny glass pieces is to do, but probably this will be do on the post fx session. Fire shader mask a lot of glass pieces (if you see the broken glass render only psted some image before).
About people and cars on street... yes this is planned... probably I will work with extremely low poly/very boxy models until the camera is very far away from the street. Just for adding volumes with correct shapes... the scene like this is quiet empty and like you underline without a drama sensation...

:: harryb
Blurring and othe rminor fx are planned but only in post fx sessions. Every kind of object have is own alpha (buffer object) so I can separate and treat each fx separately...

:: imbusion
yep reflection will one of the next to do things like I answer at basilisk. Thanks so much for your critique and point me on this !

:: Lemog
Fat taf ! yep is a must to do thing... putain ça va faire beacoup de taf ça... (a lot of work...)

:: Nakary
yes and no about reflection on other building... well first I've to rework all reflections deformation, then I notice that the image is subdivided by a warm color (left) and a cold corlor (right)... depending on how image will evolve that can be a interesting things to use to balance more the image and make it more readable... anyway I will see what will happen after reflection modification

:wip: time to work on it @ later !
jdd

[sirBS]

Good explosion! I like your color! With patches of light of a building look on much more real

[Nomad]

Great work :thumbsup:

I not followed all the thread... will you add some "life" on the street ground? Looks empty and that kills all the image... IMHO if you put just some people and few cars that will be great.

Keep that way :bounce:

[SONIC-X]

Your last render looks very impressive.Great explosiondude.Those ripples makes a huge diffirence to the scene.

[SuperXCM]

Nice update here, looking really good so far, and i like the explosion, keep this way!!:thumbsup:

Waiting to se more!!

Keep it up! :beer:

[(o)ne]

That's really impressive image :thumbsup:

[rattlesnake]

hello friend, wow the explosin is awesome, the composition is looking so great!, i think maybe the lights of the car need some work, look to thin at the starting point, but all the other things are just amazing, congrats for your results mate!

[DimitrisLiatsos]

I agree with rattlesnakle ..in all parts...it looks great Julien.., just fix a bit the car lights. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

[hindus]

ohh man thats awesome :O

::Sergey Banityuk, Sonic X, (o)ne
thank you so much

[lorenzo3d]

Very very good work julien!:thumbsup:
I like the explosion fx (maybe in the final version set more blur) and the skyscraper texture a lot!
I'm only perlplexed about camera position, the image seems to be too symmetric. It is very hard for me to find a better solution to suggest to you, but this is my sensation.
I want see the final image soon!
Good work!

here just a view of the super low poly people and some small car for the street ground environment... of corse I will not put only red cars...
jdd

[Gunilla]

Very good poses for the characters! They have much expression even as lowpoly as they are - really good work!

[sergioKomic]

Looking good!

I d make the car lights begin wider (the light beam begins very narrow and widens)!
Hope you undersand what i mean:wise: :eek:

[Lemog]

Very good low stuff Juju... that works very good... agree with Sergio about car lights... ça déchire bien, bravo :thumbsup:

[soapy]

Nice work on the low poly models Dog. Those people look good enough to work in the mid- ground. :-)

Ok here another 'general' test with cars, people on streets, new reflection texture. I have to work on cars light on the ground: at this time I noticed that they are too strong and I have to much light in the street... and at same time I loose a lot of environmet colors (the blue/red evenig color map that I've placed in the sky object)...

any C&C is welcome...
jdd

[jddog]

:: Lorenzo 3D
Of curse blur and other fx will be present, but I will do this all in the post fx sessions.
For the camera... I understood what you mean... well hard to tell you now what I can change. Probably with the final image (when all 3D elements will be fixed) you will have another perspective... we will see...

::Gunilla
Ty so much ! Yep they are really extremely low poly without bones, just a sphere in every conjuctions, but easy to pose and easy to generate 150 people (they are present now)

:: Sergio
are they better now ? did I correctly understood you ?

:: Lemog
merci ;)

[shakes]

hey jdd- great stuff! this is such a great camera angle. the cars and people below look really good-nice simple low poly models.I agree with you about the lights of the other cars being too bright. I still really like looking over all the nice details you've done here- for some stange reason I really enjoy also the street texture/road markings alot - nice work!

[daWinky]

You've been busy the last days - with very good results!:thumbsup: I like your low polys - very efficient and good looking. I agree that some parts of the scene are getting too bright...

-sabrina

[authentic]

Passing through the compliments; I'll said that you have to be careful to focus the picture on the main car. I think that with your great fire it will work but if it is not enough, maybe you can lower the spotlights of bottom cars.

[eddieellis]

Hey JD thats looking suburb, my only suggestion would be that the street and env are looking really clean. i think some dirt, and maybe evan someone getting mugged on the street and bring the whole pic up another level..

but it is looking really cool though

[SONIC-X]

Its starting to look awesome dude.All the little things makes it look realy good.

[JamesMK]

Looking good. I hear you're on top of the car lights issue, so that will be cool too. I'd desaturate the cars on the ground a fair bit though, as they appear too colourful right now. Otherwise it's looking ace, dude!

it is taking shape! all it needs is the explosion reflected on the building in front of it with some spill light. You are almost done dude!

[Shortgrey]

very impressive, congratulation.

Travail très impressionant, félicitations.

[shakes]

awesome jdd!! terrific explosion. are you going to have some reflection of it on the opposite building? I think it would look great..

[JamesMK]

The image already has a strong immediate impact - which is just perfect. You could correct some of the red in the explosion and make it more yellow instead (I had the exact same problem :D )




.

[jddog]

:: AIR, Madnsess, Super XCM, immortalx
Thanks so much for support and encouragements !

:: Madshooter
Motion blor and other dynamic fx will be done in the post fx session

:: dark_jedi_1929
Thanks you ! Like I told ad Madshooter, fx will be present :wip:

:: SNOWS
yep reflection to the other side will be a problem... like pointed before in comments from other use I have to take care that the main action on the image will be not cancelled by too much other fx in the image. In reality with this pov you don't see any reflection to the other side... so at this time I will take care at your comment, but not sure if at end the reflection will be present.
In this monent the image have an axis of colors very geometric and I try to equilibrate this colors betweed warms (explosion) and cold (blues and dark colors)... :wip:

:: Shortgrey
Merci !

:: shakes
also like I answered at SNOWS... hee... :wip: thanks for comment !

:: JamesMK
well crazy wabbit... what a challenge use PyroCluster... I have to be agree with you. I will try to change and modify it (I must to do) but before I have to do a render into he final size and analise how PyroCluster material com out at final scale, the I will fine tuning flame shapes, colors gradient and mior other Pyro settings to come ut with something belieavable...

At this time i render a image at 4000x2800 px to view better all small details... what is preview in next updates are:

_ better and more complex texture in the street to avoid a so uniform material on the ground
_ working the Ambient Occlusion on buildings for the final render size
_ working on the fire flames
_ changing colors of cars and car position to bring the focus on the main action area without charge too much the 'background' and point the view to the action finding a better balance in the image...
_ check evey procedural texture at final render size if they are ok
_ ... starting to prepare all post fx like blur, motion blur, eventually some dof too...

:wip:

much apreciated all your enthusiasm on my work on this contest :blush: evey comment are usefull and is very interesting to read all your point of view and encoragements that's help me... wow I havn't so much time, but a lot of small details to work with... I've really to hurry up !

Let me humbly advise you to not care too much about the exact colouring in the raw PC settings. Just render it out and fix the rest with the "selective colour" adjustment tool in Photoshop instead. Saves a whole lot of time and headaches :thumbsup:

[DimitrisLiatsos]

Absolutely agree with James on this...fix it later a bit with color correction Photoshop...
Awesome work ...Juju ...:scream: (Blame Lemog....he wrote this first...heheheh)

[makaron]

nothing else to say but... this is :thumbsup:

[alexichabane]

Fantastic progess, everything looks great. I love the effects, especially the lighting effects in the explosions and the reflections in the glass. The only suggestion I would make is to move the car further away from the building (but that is probably a ton of work). I think it would be even more spectacular if the car was in mid air, high above the street. However, it looks amazing as it is. Nice work on the challange. Alexi.

[Larsen]

WOW ! Another project i don't have the time to follow and now i'm really impressed to see how it has evolved, excellent work mate continue like this :buttrock:

I love the composition and lighting works, i really hope you'll finish in good places with this one !

[dannyfalch]

Very Cool!:thumbsup:

Been away for a few week, and you have really gotten som work done.
Light, explotion, glass, composition just looks super!
I see you got the car done aswell, good job!

[jddog]

Thanks so much for your support, comments and enthusiasm that you give me...

At this moment I render it for the final size... but I have found some problem due to the massive reflections on my scene. After the first render test of 46 hrs I saw that only a 1/3 of the image was rendered so I've separate my image in 4 different parts.

The first part (all right buildings) was rendered in 9 hrs, the 2 part (the left part) with only the glass building require 20 hrs of render and now I render all the explosion part. I started to render first the broken glasses then I will render the car and the fire fx and I will compose all the scene. I hope that I can do that in 20 hrs...

so please be patient...

jdd

[jddog]

Impressive render time mate... I hope you can manage all easily...

Yep that true and a real suprise for me :shrug: I don't know what really happened but I suppose that come from the reflections.

My render engine had to calculate different part of the image to render the reflections (and on the glass building the reflections goes in differents directions) and I suppose that bigger is the image and exponentially the time grow up becasue of the hi definition and the different area calculation to compose correctly the reflection...
At beginn I dind't really pay attention at this problem becase a small render als 800x550x require only 35/40 minute wth global illumination, AO etc...

And here the orther part of the main environment render...
jdd

[JamesMK]

Um, the horrors of the final rendering is ON!

I guess you've already finished the pass containing the reflections, but if not, a good starting point is to set the reflection depth in render options as low as possible - sometimes even as low as 2 can work, but then there are other cases where you need 3 or 4 in order to avoid weirdness.... Then ray depth as low as possible of course, yet again depending on the amount of transparent materials.... And usually one can get away with a slightly decreased accuracy by increasing the threshold (in render options) a little bit... going from 0% to 2% will often speed up things a lot without any visible loss of quality.

Anyways, good luck with the rest of the passes :thumbsup:

oh! that's interesting... well yep reflection depth is set to 4 due to some number of reflections in windows by windows... but the threshold sound interesting... I will test it on the small glasses parts render, because Pyrocluster, reflections, trasparency and fine, small polygons just aren't really friends... :hmm:

james :beer: ty !

[JamesMK]

... but the threshold sound interesting... I will test it on the small glasses parts render, because Pyrocluster, reflections, trasparency and fine, small polygons just aren't really friends... :hmm:
Gah... no, they are certainly not friends. Be careful with the threshold thing though - some rendering purists claim it should never go above 0%... while my personal take on the matter is that if there's no visible difference, there is no problem either.

The explosion is WHOUAHH!!

But I just noticed... there's something odd with the reflections in the windows - the cars on the street are reflected very high up in the building. Can't remember seeing it in any of the previous renders ... but perhaps that's how it should be?

[agou]

woooow, this picture took my breath away ! Impressing!!!

I agree with gunilla on the cars getting reflected even on the top most windows, looks little strange, otherwise the image is rocking:buttrock: and fantastic:thumbsup: The explosion looks great dude.

Just few tweaks I guess and then the final image, I'm waiting:bounce: :bounce:

can´t help thinking every time I see this... what are the car doing up there, so high in the building? :eek: and that what I call a spectacular thought... :thumbsup:

Hi I'm back again with a small suggestion if it is possible. Somehow I feel the reflection of the car exploding and fire explosion can fall on the oppsite building, will add more to your scene. I guess you can do that easily in photoshop, just a suggestion dude:)
