Everything beautiful is far away, Marek Denko (3D)

Title: Everything beautiful is far away
Name: Marek Denko
Country: Slovakia
Software: 3ds max, Digital Fusion, Photoshop, VRay

I spent on this one quite a long time. Not that it was too complicated but there were periods of time when I really couldn’t touch it for a several weeks. Some guys thought that I was dead not posting any new works. So here I’m once again.It’s about being far away from family, friends from everything you love and care about. Just an anonymous cold waiting areas of airport gates with strangers all around set to dime mood of cold weather and soft fogy sunset make your unwanted company. I know these days airports are quite modern and fancy
but it’s even more unpersonalised with all those duty free shops and fake Irish pubs and pizza restaurants with fake smile or without it. So take a minute and enjoy it.
Technically it was made in 3dsmax 2009, Rendered in Vray sp1.8a. Excluding the sky it is all completely 3d. Color correction and postproduction playing in fusion and photoshop. Rendered on i7 975 with 12Gb of RAM at 5000×2570px resolution and it took aprox. 15 hours to render at final quality. Dedicated to my beautiful family which I hope will never be far away from me.

As always you show hi-end quality in your artworks! One thing I really love is your works have not only high technical level but mood.
This airport reminds me similar soviet union airports I saw in my childhood. In fact, they are not particularly changed now :smiley:

Though there are some repetitions in the dirt on the window, I don t mind.

There is more than the technical side to images like this: It s telling a human story.
In this case it seems to have a lot to do with yourself. Thats okay.

What I like about your work is the color underlining the mood and the composition with the
old couple.

Cool thing and great work!
