Hello!

Here´s my weekly project 03..

I have felt the need to improve my exterior/nature skills for a while and thought it would be good to do a few nature mini-projects.
There are still improvements to be made.

3Ds Max & Octane Render.

Fantastic.

Can you tell us what the setting is? Render time?

Awesome stuff!!! well done mate.

can you shed some details on your workflow?

specifically:
-Rocks are mesh? or a detailed scan with displacement etc?
-Hero vegetation (flower specimens, tall herbs etc) are these commercial (xfrog etc). and did you scatter (phantom or otherwise)
-Grass: field; is this a series of small clusters scattered over the ground surface? or something else?
-Grass: Hero Shot, this looks incredible. did you start with a mesh then texture it for this shot? or is that a close-up of the detail on your grass proxy model? the colour change on the larger blades is beautiful!

I used PathTracing without changing anything. Rendertimes were probably around 20min@4000-6000px, I´m not sure, I hit render and went away and did something else for a while :)

Sure!
- Everything is 3D geometry except the background on the image with the gravel and one plant.
- I used Forest Pack (inside 3Ds Max) to scatter everything and yes, they are commercial models.
- The ground surface has both some noise and displacement and the vegetation is scattered on top of the displacement. It´s random size clusters, not individual grass strands.
- Thanks! These are a couple of clumps of grass strands (each look slightly different from another) that are then scattered. Then I manually placed a few closest to the camera to get the look I wanted.

Thank you! See a bit further up for more details.

If anyone wants to know anything else let me know :)

Thank you! I´ve attached a screenshot of one of the grass materials, very basic stuff :)
