Yes, I meant behind-the-scenes (no pun intended), sorry for not being specific when it comes to genres.

Fun with caustics.

[PROH]

Nice :) What's the secret?

[romullus]

Caustics generator and self illumination. Horrible fake, but still better than no caustics at all. And renders blazingly fast :]

Fake but very smart, compliments romullus

My newest model. Volocopter VC200 by e-volo. OCTADECACOPTER, baby! :]

As usual no external post at all, everything's straight out of Corona VFB. I used one of dubcat's LUT, which worked brilliantly. Render times were from little more than 1 minute to little less than 1 hour, depending on picture space filling and usage of DOF. Background is simple HDRI in Corona's dome mode. I had a proper backplates for that HDRI, but didn't want to bother with them.

dude, you are seriously kicking ass

[lacilaci]

Really cool stuff... The interior/seating area looks a bit uncomfortable though. Having a nice interior and comfortable seats would boost this whole appearance to a new level imho. Still, great work and renders.

[romullus]

Thank you both.

I agree that seats looks (and probably are) uncomfortable. That's most likely due to the fact, that this unit is just a prototype. When i was about to finish modelling, i found that e-volo released new production ready unit, which has closed cockpit and more comfortable seats, oh well... Nevertheless, stylistically i like this one more.

amazing renders....quick question. How do you use coronas DOME MODE??? when should we also consider using it preferably and is it a better option than using regular hdri in environment slot ?

Photographic 1 and 2 are the only ones that i use and i use them quite a lot. I think it's safe to say that they are my favorites too :]
