High poly low poly - recreation of those floating islands


Inspired by all those low poly floating islands, and more directly this one by /u/Mochilles on reddit:


This was a lot of fun to make covering a lot of different cg practices (photogrammetry, volumetrics and smoke, going outside). I actually went to my local flower store and bought the mini sized tree you see in the image and set up a makeshift photostudio for taking photogrammetry pictures. All in all really happy with how this project turned out.

Should I say it again? I guess I should: awesome work!

:eek: Those photorealistic islands are amazing!

Wonderful! I really like it!

I tried also the floating island some years ago, but result was not good.
Now seeing your beautiful and inspiring result, I think I will work again on my old project.

Wow, floating islands are my thing and I really love those!
Excellent work!

The photorealistic result is much better than the low-poly. Sometimes low-poly SUCKS… but only sometimes.

Good work!
The tree is 100% photogrammetry!? It’s possible to see more details of that?
