Title: it's about to rain
Post by: skinny_santa on 2014-01-12, 06:29:54

i was busy after the Christmas . all these elf and reindeer hehe


i tried to make a scene where it is about to rain . i am working on a rainy scene now and i would love to have some tips for rain ( ofcorse that would be post ) but what about making the texture wet ? like the usual specularity and a bit of wetting the texture in photoshop ? or is there a better way of doing so ?


thank you for taking time to see


there is one with ao and a bit of gamma correction and another is raw render

 Brute force 25 subdives usually gives a lot of noise in the shadows, even more then corona noise. But here there is a lot of small details + jpg compression and I can't see the noise, so it's impossible to compare.

i used a noise threshhold of .003
i'll add one with light cache
and upload the raw targa files :)
