Environment: Forest of Hopeless

[RiotManZ]

At first I thought this is an oil painting!!!:eek:
But it is completely 3D...:surprised
Hell, this is a great texturing work..:beer:

One of the finest arts I´ve seen on CGtalk.

Hi!

Nice, well, I don't really like the background (the "moon"'s look)... but you're really a creative and talented and fast artist!

the foreground is nicely done (trees! wow!)

I may have added thoses fingers that try to catch you and drown you into dispair... you know? fingers of mist crawling through the trees, heading towards that hopeless man.

But I'm not you :)

Ciao
Dani

edit: what's our technique for modelling trees? lot's of proportional editing?

[Rivendale]

Hey that looks great, I like it! The texturing is awsome, it looks kind of theatrical
Did you use some sort of render-filter to make it look so painted?
Crits- You should work more on the transition between the trees and the ground I think, to make them blend more together. Also then name of it. I may be wrong but shouldn't it be hopelessness. It sounds kinda cut off.:shrug:

Good work:thumbsup:

Endi, yet again you haved amazed me with your talents with Blender. God until the wireframe appeared I could have sworn it was a painting.

The detailing in the trees is astounding, no imperfections in the texture work either, superb.

Please keep on inspiring me,

Sonix.

A beautiful artistic work once again, endi.
When I first saw the image, my browser window was resized small and I didn't see the blender logo on the right corner. I was thinking to myself "wow, endi does great paintings as well as CG", until I realised it *was* CG. It's a brilliant texturing style.

Thanks for all.
There is no special "paint-render", this is a simple render of the Blender. :) The original tree texture looks like a paint, so the paint-like coming from here.

The tree modelling was very simple. I start with a low poly tube and I make its UV. Then I make a random-subdiv (called "fractal subdiv in Blender). So it is has rough surface. Finally I screw the tube sequences randomy.
So now I have screwed, rough surfaced trees.

(Sorry for my bad english.)

Nice work!

My favourite fantasy painter is Rodney Matthews (www.rodneymatthews.com).
I know, my style is not original in all.

YAYKS!!! :eek:

Blender baby, yeah!..Amazing results you have with the Textures, wonderfull :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[aqa_spain]

good work Endi

i agree, blender is a good program, just it's harder to get a good finish than using max,maya or lightwave.

take a look at my last blender short

It's a nice image but the forest is pretty dull. I think a larger variety of trees would help.

[Kel Solaar]

Very nice picture! :buttrock: It's not easy with blender to obtain this quality, but you did It! Good Job! :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock: :bounce: :bounce:

Nice to see a higher res of this. It's a great image. I love the tree style.
