Wooo!! great texturing, lighting and rendering! great work!:thumbsup: :thumbsup: congratulation! :buttrock:

[Majorgruber]

I just HATE it when people post work like this...makes me realize that I'll never achieve such realistic 3d images such as this one.

You amaze me...:buttrock:

[Silverwing]

Wow awesome... Looks very real!
Amazing textures and great lighting...
4 Stars! Really looks like a Photo!

[irananimator]

i download with 0,7 kb/s :( ...but hey...thats real hard stuff!! :eek:

[AnharMiah]

My hats off to you sir, that is excellent, a few questions, you did exactly want I was thinking of doing !

How long did it take to render? (THE ANIMATION, not still)
Did you save the IR maps, and use that for your final animation?
Any more info on your render settings (hehe I love VRAY)
Please do make some tutorials.
What units did you use, and how did you scale your phototexures?
Did you make any real world measurements or did you "eyeball"?
How many polys :) ?
You have inspired me to try something similar, I thank you for re-enforcing my view that the ability to make film production level virtual set a reality using 3ds max + VRAY + Photo + excellent textures not to mention a bucket load of talent a REAL possibility.

Thank you!

Anhar

[rocketmaestro]

Awesome! 5 stars!

[Nelio]

Superb lightning, great mesh optimizaton, good texturing! Only remark is for the tree composited in the backgorund i find it perhaps too green fot that low, near sunset, yellowish sun colour. Congratulatios, very nice!

[HellBoy]

lukx, I always liked your work and this piece is not different.

Very good and well done man

[Guillermo]

Good work, but there is a forum for animation, this is for 3d stills :thumbsup:

[gordianfrank]

nice work.. but did you take the texture from original photos or are they all "handmade" cause on some spots they look blurred though there is no reason to be ?
if they are not taken from photos:
at first sight I was like "my god.. someone mistaked this forum to post photos" but after seeing the wires I was just taken aback!
dude this is really one of the most realistic pics I've ever seen.

[Myzer]

I'm overwhelmed.....I'm speechless.....

Tutorial! Please do write us one!(eyes flashing***)
I'll check the forum everyday!: )

[yogeshsherman]

First of all congratulations for such a nice work.In my opinion till date this is your best work in 3d.Second your download speed is very slow it is around 0.7 kb/s so plz do something about that.
How long did it take to render the whole animation and how whats the time of single frame .
your textures really look very nice which inspires me to do something like this in near future.though I don't use GI so don't know whether I can acheive this sort of quality or not.

[suburbanstudio]

amazing modeling and texturing and lighting :eek:
congrats

[raca]

great modeling
great texturing
great lightning
just great!!

[webhead]

Well, all that work and time you put into this piece - really paid off. It looks very photographic.
Great job!

[Eomer41]

This is crazy. I wonder what this place use to be before it fell apart. The bump looks great, and not a huge amount of polygons. The textures make it look really real, and they worked well too. The animation is cool too, looks live a video camera. Both the animation and the still look geat. Although the animation is grand, I think this should be in the 3D stills maybe?:)

1.animation was only around 200 frames 11 minutes for a frame.
2.yes I saved IR and LC but it was different for still and different for animation.
3.I'm not stettings geek :) I think that it's not about setting it's all materials, textures and lights game. Settings were standard vray madium ir for still and medium aniamation for aniamtion with 500LC.
4. Soon :)
5. just generic
6. Mostly eyeball, but some real world measurements was also made to get the proportions right.
7. 838709 :)

how did you know :) people were calling me batman :) in school :)

Thank you all, you really made my day.:bowdown:

[AnharMiah]

Thank you for answering my questions.

For a while before you had answered my questions, I got paranoid and thought you had totally ignored me (thankfully not the case).

Since I have heard stories about how sometimes *some* individuals tend not to talk to others they deem not worthily (based upon the work they have produced). Thereby producing a class structure.

Anyhow glad to find that you are not like that, your ratings has just gone through the roof!

I’m learning everyday, one day, I’ll be flying too.

[lukx]

:blush: I'm sorry for any delay in answering it's just because of having full time job and huge need to play battlefield 2142 after work to fresh up my mind :)

Unfortunately this is the case on CGTalk, and it is indeed discraseful, disquisting etc. Pity, people like me and you could learn so much if they would talk openly like this guy. I think that's their problem :D

Really nice work man, still looks awesome, I will report when the animation downloads and I see it.

[AnharMiah]

No need to be sorry, any answer is much better than no answer ! :)

I sometimes get 3D block (like writers block ) and can't get my self motivated to model, or sometimes I model then just stop half way and never finish it, But looking at your work inspires me and getting a response motivates me to get on with it!

I can't wait to see games that look as you work does, maybe with next gen consoles like PS3 will reach half way there ( I read yesterday about Realtime Raytracing GPU's, interesting stuff)

[chevictor2000]

This work is really very nice, for me its an excellent work:eek:

[msanandkumar]

Hello Dear........... :eek:

[dolphinzzz]

I can not believe my eyes!!

[Retrolimo]

That was perfect!!!

[Wolfie]

dang , Lukasz, you must be one happy man to be able to pull this off (and live in Cyprus at the same time :) , I hear it's lovely over there)

all I can say is , on behalf of all those who admire ... please write us a tutorial on this ... espescially focussing on how you achieved the reality of it all ...

[drewns]

Wow....Lukasz, that was very impressive. Looks completely real. I especially loved the handheld camera work. Did you animate the camera motion manually, or by another method (ie. some kind of tracking)?

[lukx]

Thank Wolfie. Yep Cyprus is quite nice but right now it's cold :)
drewns, yes I recorded hand shake with my digital camera canon a95 and tracked in boujou.

[flashgordy]

you amazed me

great stuff, pity that it has only 17 seconds

ehh...I feel so small... ;)

[drewns]

drewns, yes I recorded hand shake with my digital camera canon a95 and tracked in boujou.

Oops, I'm sorry, I see that you mentioned that in your original post. Thanks anyway for answering my question!

[TAVO]

In some areas the textures look a little bit flat, is this a full animation or a camera projection ? By the way the textures are just awesome.
