Hey guys,

This one’s done for practising set extension and grain match.
I’ll post the plate later.

cheers,
Chris

Looks completely seamless to me buddy! :thumbsup:

Look forward to seeing the plate to find out which bits are the extension.

really good,very photoreal ! great mood and simple and striking composition, did you use 3d assets? or just photo manipulation?

Cheers Nick and Jaime :slight_smile:

Here’s the plate I used:

Just chilling at the coast hehe.
That’s pretty much the crappiest jpeg I could find on Google; as mentioned before wanted to try and match all the noise in the plate and the low resolution.
There’s no 3D in there btw; just photo-manip and painting.

Cheers,
Chris

PS:
what’s up with the board today? looks totally screwed here. As in: everything’s white and the layout is ****ed, too o_0

its all fixed now dude… the white screwed up look was, for me, a breath of fresh air hahaha!

BTW amazing work as usual! Lovely and amazing!

#6

cheers mate!

well don’t know about the white stuff, though :smiley: definitely prefer the dark version!

#7

already told you on deviantart: great great piece :slight_smile: Love the lighting and atmosphere… just feels so natural. Very good idea btw to just get the most crappy image you can find and try to create something beautiful out of it :wink: I think you succeeded

#8

Great matte, amazing to think you started with that stock and made that image

Wow, that’s pretty amazing! I’ve never even looked in on the matte painting section on CG society before so I’m pretty ignorant of how it’s all done. :slight_smile: It looks like you cloned and reversed the left side outcropping and mirrored it over to the other side. What’s amazing to me about that is that it took me quite a while to notice it because you painted over the original area. Very nice. Did you hand paint the stone railing or is that from another photo? Can you tell me a bit more about your process?

Also, you said, “No 3D”. Is that how it’s normally done these days? All I know about Matte painting is what I saw back in 70’s and 80’s and all of that was actual paint on glass. :smiley:

Thanks!
