OTOY Forums

I could use some help! I purchased Octane to render a hyper realistic lunar scene we would like to do for an internet commercial like the attached shot.

I have been using Octane for a while but am not nearly as skilled as the likes of many I have seen here, and could spend many months (years) learning how to perfect the skills but have limited time.
I just need a head start from someone who knows what they are doing. My main issue is I just don't know the program well enough make use of all the features like you CG gurus.

I have a few high res models including astronauts and vehicles and I need someone who can render them with the correct lighting in Octane so that it will look like the 3D model example picture attached. The artist, Tomas Kral, rendered it over a photo backplate using softimage Metal ray, and photoshop. I would like to create the actual 3D environment and would love to see how Octane would render this. Is there anyone who could point me in the right direction or that would be willing to create an actual 3d lunar environment that we could drop models into?

You can leave comments here or contact me by PM.

Let me know and TIA!

Here is a great HI-Res textured and rigged Astronaut out of the deal if you will just create the right lighting conditions in Octane and send me back the octane file once you have done so. I just need to see the nodes, lighting settings, and materials you are using. Can anyone get Octane to render this a good as the Tomas Kral model?

Hmm.. I really thought this would be a cinch for someone. Just one light source and 1 model? Over 200 views and no suggestions, maybe this is more difficult than I realized. As soon as I get my rig up and running I will post a couple attempts on my own but I am sure you guys can do it better. Here are a couple more shots to inspire. Any takers?

damn, i would really like to play with this, especially now with 1.12 new personalized sky system.
if you are not in a hurry i would try sooner or later

Nice scene... that's the reason why I will never be an astronaut !
