Still need to give the guy a hat, change his staff and the sticks in the doorway (they're all the same object that I made as an early placeholder). I can't for the life of me figure out how to get nice looking volumetric clouds within Octane yet.

Photoshop dem clouds? Use gimp if you don't have it. Saves time rendering, but if you really wanna have rendered clouds I don't know how to help yah.

Yep, putting in 2D clouds in post is a last resort. It'd be really nice if I could get some real ones in the render though.

Just put a plane in background with a diffuse material and cloudy sky texture, and give it some transparency, and some emission if toodark. Also play with the gamma, and you will add some details in your sky.

I used this method for these recent renders inspired by the drawing of the young "Ellie" Ann Arroway in the movie "Contact" :
