Hi all !

A friend of mine has written a book, which I absolutely love.

The story takes place in the 26th century.
I'm not gonna re-write the whole book here, but to put it in a nutshell it's a post-apocalyptic world.
Humans live underwater, in huge cities.

I didn't aim at photorealism here.
I just used Octane to get this "natural light" feel, and also because it's so damn quick to render!

Hope you enjoy it...




- Base modelling in Sketchup
- More advanced modelling and UV-Unwrap in Blender
- Rendered with Octane Beta 2.2b

Ooops I forgot :
If you want to know more about the book, it's in FRENCH and it's called "Amaru" : visit this website http://www.amaru-trilogie.com

Awesome texturing work !! I like this kind of 'post-apocalyptic future' feeling a lot ( you can check some of my pics here http://www.refractivesoftware.com/forum ... f=5&t=4582 and here http://www.refractivesoftware.com/forum ... f=5&t=4370).
Maybe the overall feeling is a little bit too clean and the buildings in the background need a little bit more work

Very nice anyway!

Thanks for your comm !


Your images are just awesome !!!

Since you can produce lights, I assume you're using Octane's latest version?
Is it stable enough?

Cheers!

yes, I'm using the last version.
Keeping in mind that I only use octane in my hobby (I mean not professionaly), I consider that it's stable enough, even if it crashes sometimes. I use to regulary save my work and anything runs fine.

By the way, your friend's book seems really interesting, I will sure throw an eye on it.

Thanks for telling me more about Octane's latest version.


Regarding the book, I got literally drawn into it.
Hope you're French !!!
(so you can read it!)

Ass you maybe guessed reading my poor english, I'm from Belgium so I have absolutely no excuse not to read that book !!!!

I hope you enjoy the book!
