The Castle


a greeting!

Rendered in Cycles. Color corrected in Blender… didnt like it -> color corrected in photoshop. :slight_smile:
Not to be considered for competition. Its was made a while ago, I just revisited it for the contest.


Pure entry:


I don’t remember to have used so much particles in a scene with BI renderer :smiley:

Wowzsers. That’s a very imaginative piece! Makes me want to learn particles, but I’m still learning about normals and displacement maps :wink:

My non-competing entry:

Garden Beyond the Gate

RobertT

My first entry into I think any Blender competition, figured this would be a nice way to asctually get involved in the community after… 8-9 years?

The Pearly Gates - Pure entry


First time using volumetrics too, though I don’t have 2.71 yet so it was unfortunately on CPU. Dumb fireflies.

Praised the lord RobertT, great entries everyone ! I’m amazed by the work this week, keep it up !

The most complicated scene I’ve ever rendered in Cycles.
Lots of particle systems pushed my computer to the death :frowning:
I wish i had a better hardware, so i could create more details :frowning:

Anyway, with these tools, this is all I could create.
100% pure, textures came from rendertextures.com, some textures are made by myself, rendered in Cycles (500 samples, around 3hours), hope you like it:yes:

Nice modelling @DRoss.
