Bleriot XI

[alieneye]

Hey guys!
Just played with the release version of Corona and I really enjoyed it!
Corona is getting better and better!





Model by BLERIOT Project from PLMCC http://www.plmcc.fr/bleriot
I had a lot of issues with importing this CAD model https://grabcad.com/library/bleriot-plane,
So I remodeled all fabric surfaces, propeller, some wires and some wood parts.
Unwrapping and texturing were done in Max and Photoshop.
Post in After Effects.

wait  O_O

is it all cg? even the enviroment??

would be nice to see some closeups of the engine :D

[alieneye]

yes, it is all CG.
and i`m planning to render some closeups - model is well detailed ;)

[racoonart]

Very nice work. The plane looks great, I didn't even look at the background to notice it's not a photo.

[Ondra]

please add closeups ASAP, because tomorrow this is going on facebook ;)

[Stan_But]

Cool work!
Very photographically!

[CiroC]

I like, in particular the first image that conveys a very photographic look. Do you mind me to ask if the trees are models from evermotion or produced using GrowFx, for example?

[aurelarchi]

Really nice work !
Natural light and textures.
Trees from ?

[alieneye]

Thank you, Coronauts!
Trees are from http://rendering.ru/ru_en/models.html (I suppose they used GrowFX)
All shaders were made from scratch.
One HDRI for lighting and reflections (http://bocostudio.com/boco-pano/).

and thank you, Ondra for posting it on FB ;)

It would be strange if it won't go on FB.
Both pictures are superb, but i like second one more. Maybe because it reminds me one of those images on old russian magazine "MK". Brings good memories.

Are you fucking kidding me? One of the most realistic renderings ive ever seen.

[artmaknev]

That grass, holy cow, that freaking grass!!!! Nice job !

Nature and environment is superb! I like this slight blurriness in the front/back that gives extra reality. The shader in the wings and the tail is a little weird to me (maybe because I dont know anything about airplanes). It's supposed to be a semitransparent plastic or a kind of strengthened fabric?

Keep up!

yes, it is a fabric

one thing that I was not sure about before, but I see it now compared to the reference - the wheel spokes are too thin on the model. I would also add some noise on some of the wires so they are not 100% straight. Otherwise - perfection ;)
