Alpine Village, Stefan Morrell (3D)

[siniki]

wow - cool atmosphere. Great textures & lighting!

Maybe you can add some flying spaceships or vehicles - just a few moving objects, to get more action in the scene. But it`s already perfect.

Keep up the good work!

[BookMansBlues]

Thats a really slick render, reminds me of Iron Forge from World of War Craft. (in a good way)

[RobertF]

As always great work! Even though I wouldn't mind people in the enviroment have you taken that in to account!! 4 starts ....

[TheThidMan]

Great work! Love the modelling and texturing.

[JohnSaRT]

absolut stunning work

[edcorusa]

I think you got the effect you were looking for. Really good work. Maybe a sci-fi sled with old jolly Nick, would be nice :)

[Joshna]

very nice done man!
I love your mountain shape and render,perfect work !!

[Dennik]

I love the sci-fi style and the shaders. It looks more like a base to me, than village. Not much Christmas lights to make it look festive though.
Good work nevertheless.

[deathcow]

[octopus7]

As always another great artwork from you:thumbsup:

[cajomi]

[nolxev]

Wow... wonderful snow! :thumbsup:

[AndrewMarch]

Excellent work Stefan, are you going to make the parts available to us modelling plebs.

I think I've lost count of the releases by you that I've purchased, I'd love to add this to the count.

[todd4cgi]

Stefan,

Amazing work, as usual. Is part of this scene going to be available for purchase anytime? I have almost all of your other environments. :)

[Bcool-PT]

great lighting, it really makes this scene become alive. great details and texturing as well.excellent work!

[Zork]

Nice, very nice...show wire

[SuperXCM]

Hi Stefan,


great render and lighting.... i love a lot, good job man!!!
The snow is amazing!! :bounce:

See u!

[Stefan-Morrell]

thanks to CGSociety for the award..always appreciated:thumbsup:


todd4cgi & AndrewMarch,sorry this was made for my own use & way too many shortcuts were taken to make it viable as a commercial model(viewed from any other angle you'll see gaping holes in the mesh)

here's a link to the thread I was reffering to for the snow shader
http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=6&t=117715&highlight=snow
Dave Black & DerPapa both came up with some excellent examples
I stayed pretty faithfull to DerPapa's shader,just with new textures & a bit of displacement added


thanks again for the comments

[kaparo]

Beautifull image! Excellent rendered. It has the deep and strenght to transport you to some other place. Even though there is no people around I can fell them working and living inside. It remembered me a place on a novel I recently read: "Consider Phlebas" by Iain M. Banks.
Congratulations!

[DerPapa]

Holy sh..., Can't belive it! Dunno what to write! I'm simply amazed that I could help you out a bit, on this fantastic image!

cheers
Michael

[wowbaggin]

wow, this is gorgeous. great job on the snow.

[Ajax02008]

hi every one am new to this forum and i just came across this jaw dropping 3D work that i have never seen before. am doing bachelors in computer sci and engineering , and i wud like to go for a masters in VFX. well wat i want to know it how is this work done?? do i just need to learn maya,3dmaxstudio, fotoshop and other rendering and lighting softwares to make a CG like that ?? or do i need to have a a strong drawing skills of human anatomy and human expression ,which i fear i dont have!! :( :( am sure there are so many experts here who wud love to answer my question :) more over my field of instrut is VFX it wud be nice if any one of you can help me out with tips and suggestion on hw to start a carrer in VFX!

[RichVisual]

I'm nowhere near this level in 3D so it seems wrong to crit but I do think it needs something. My preference would be for a snowborder, glider, patrolman, more snow/wind effecting the air but this is all hearsay. It is an amazingly well crafted and rendered scene

[walterkilis]

Beautiful piece, I love landscape portraits. Bravo!

[phyre-cat]

The image is great, I'd love to see some christmas lights in there ;) but the two closest walkways dont seem to go anywhere... I can see the others are actually buried in snow, but the close ones just kind of end....

[MINTY1974]

I really think your work is superb. The details are fantastic. I especially like the lighting set up. Top wtuff mate!

[Flipside360]

Dude that looks like something off Starwars. More like Empire than the original

[mhenry]

Sweet Render!

[AmmAviscA]

Amazing. BAD ASS.

[MarkyG]

Wonderful lighting and texture!

[Cavet]

perfekt!:applause:

This is amazingly well done! Congratulations!

[bartus000]

[tuck]

Good job man! your some detail is very nice.:thumbsup:

[fluids]

great modelling, texturing, and lighting. i feel cold all ready. someone turn up the heat, please!

[fahadkhan]

you done a SUPERB JOB....

[jcw7766]

Is the snow in the texturing? did you use bump mapping? if so, how much?

[destijlart]

:scream:Wahhhh!!! this is to good! lighting, texturing, modeling and composition :buttrock:

[jdog]

Awesome, a few futuristic vehicles on or above the struts would be cool

[dagonmasamune]

Awsome scene! just have to love the feel of the scene.
