Gallery / Interceptor - 2022

« on: 2022-11-17, 10:46:05 »

Hi guys,

A couple of months ago we had the possibility of working on some images for the Flatrock motorsports park that is being built in Tennessee. One of the images requested was an action shot for a motorbike race, showing both the pit building on one side and the Main Grandstand on the other. Our idea was to place simulate the camera being on the back of one of the bikes and grabbing the action behind it.
We are always happy to work on these motorsport action shots, and we definitely enjoyed creating this one.

Full cg and as always, Corona renderer with Cinema4d. Grading and pass compositing with Photoshop.

Hope you guys like it!

Gallery / A good year - Wine Tasting Pavilion

« on: 2022-11-12, 13:27:10 »

Hi everybody!

Long time no post :) Today we wanted to share a set of images we have done for a small but really nice project. Images were made for an architectural competition for a small wine tasting pavilion on a vineyard in Portugal.
The client's idea was to portray the use of the pavilion during Summer time and also during Winter, which could be fully open or completely closed.

Full CG, done in Corona and Cinema4d.

Hope you like it.

Hey everyone,

Here is a new artwork made to explore the new Corona 7 properties and my continuous search for different graphical approaches.
Frazetta's paintings highly influenced my approach to this image.

Apart from the finished image, I post here the raw render as well and the Raw Component Diffuse pass (cause I just love how it always looks :D)

Cinema4d, Corona, Megascans and Photoshop were used.

Hope you guys like it, and hope everyone is doing fine,

[C4D] I need help! / Corona 7 Proxy materials

« on: 2021-08-27, 10:11:16 »

Hi guys,

I have been experiencing some issues with the proxy creation. Everything works fine, but on some objects it doesn't recognize all the materials on the original mesh. I am trying to convert a sofa which has 11 materials with polygon selections and on the proxy itself only 10 appear. This only happens on a couple of objects, but I still haven't been able to pinpoint why exactly it happens :/ Is anyone else experiencing the same?

Thanks and hopefully someone can shed some light into it.

Gallery / Getting ready for the party...

« on: 2019-11-08, 17:42:05 »

Hey everyone,

This year for Halloween I felt like mixing a Scandinavian loft scene with a "Dia de los Muertos" approach. So here is my hipster Grim Reaper getting ready for the party later tonight :)
Daz3d for the Reaper, furniture and green from Bentanji and Designconnected. Pumpkins and mirror modeled by me in Cinema4d and textured in Substance Painter.

Hope you guys like it.

Hey everyone, this was my submission to the kitbash CyberpunkcitY competition! Corona4c4d 4 worked perfectly and very very stable!
There was also a lot of photoshop involved to create the mood!
Hope you like it!

[C4D] General Discussion / Increased rendertime after Pass 6

« on: 2017-10-06, 08:18:04 »

Hi everyone,

I am running Corona Version: A6.3  (core 1.5 ), on CinemaR18.
On all the renders I have been doing, I always experience some really significant increase on render time per pass after Pass 6. I wonder if anyone has experienced it also, or if it is normal and I just don't know it.
Has a means of example, tonight I rendered one image, not a very heavy scene, in 4500px and from Pass 1 till Pass 6 it took +/- 182 seconds per pass, after pass 6 the time went up to +/- 1122 seconds per pass. And this seems to be symptomatic in all of the renders I have done, so I assume it's not scene or project related.

Maybe somebody could shed some light on this for me :)

Thanks in advance!

Gallery / On Patrol... Corona/Cinema4d/Substance

« on: 2016-12-19, 11:04:47 »

Hey guys,

I wanted to share the latest image I have done with Corona for Cinema4d! I also started playing around a bit with Substance, but still nothing very in depth.
My idea was to try to create an atmospheric image and see how far I could go with it. Most of the models were free sharings from the community, except for the Batmobile which I had bought it at Turbosquid some years ago (If I am not mistaken...) Anyway the emphasis was on creating nice textures and nice atmosphere, not on modelling.

As it has been for the last couple of projects where I have started to use Corona, the entire process has been really smooth and intuitive!!
I share both versions, Color and Black and White!

I hope you guys like it!
