welcome! glad to have you with us
your first "test" already looks fantastic! imo it is not easy to acquire such a realistic look with a "simple" setup like that; has an absolute photographic look to it (colors, lighting, framing, dof) - did you do postwork on this?
ps: i even don't mind the noise - well a little it could be less, but personally i won't burn them to be completely noise-free; imo adds some realism to it...
„The obvious is that which is never seen until someone expresses it simply ‟
Hmmm, yes its really noisy. I've just render each image for about 30 mins.
Once i've finished this project I will render it a bit longer
I think I have to buy a really good GPU.
At the moment I'm not really familiar with Octane. So I hope I can push the Quality a bit in the final renderings.
And, yes. I did postwork on this. Just a little colour-correction.
Wow, looks highly photorealistic
A pity the background doesn't quite match the color temperature :/ It also looks like light is coming from another direction on the mountains.
Yeah I know. I haven't found a good snowy Mountain-Hdri. I'm still searching
... and its far away from finish.
I hope I will find a solution for nice shadows on Hdri lighting. It's a bit tricky in Octane, hu?
In the next days I'll play a bit around to ger familiar with Octane.
I used path tracing. Does it look like direct lighting?
Rendertimes were 1 hour per render on a GTX 560.
(Yes, I will buy a faster one soon )
And I used a daylight and some mesh emitters on the standing light and on the ceiling light.
