Hi people,
If anyone is still active on this thread, I am working on this scene just to build up my portfolio and I needed some critique on the work I have done so far. Any suggestion/comments will be greatly appreciated. I am in the process to put some grass on the mountains using paint effects. So the texture looks bad. But any help will be appreciated. ![]() Thanks |

Off to a good start Esha! I'd work on the lighting itself first and foremost, however. Maybe apply a flat gray shader to everything, and work on linear lighting a bit? It doesn't appear that you're using a linear lighting workflow here.
PFX can be tedious but if you scoot over to the Maya forums there's a few nice ones on how to do big areas of grass using instancing and one small patch made from PFX grass. It's certainly doable; I used PFX for my grass as well. __________________

Esha: Welcome! I'd recommend making sure your lights have motivation. First start with some sunlight. Make sure it has fairly hard shadows. Then add in some soft skylight. After that you can add in bounce light either through a global illumination solution or by manual putting in bounce lights. Here's a reference image you may find useful. http://www.flickr.com/photos/shaday365/5106984509/
