Touched by the Sun

This one was inspired by a small section that I noticed in the multiscreen version of “Autumn Overlook” where a sunbeam landed nicely on the autumn foliage.   I tried zooming in on that section and rendering that but it wasn’t exactly what I wanted.   In the end I created a whole new scene (a couple of them actually) and I’m finally pleased with the result.   Took a bit longer than I had anticipated but I hope you like the results too. 

Keep an eye out for a Pickle Jar version or two as this one with through a couple of (long-rendering) iterations.

Artifact

When creating a pure space image it has become a bit of a tradition for me to also render a view (from the ground).   Not sure exactly when I started doing that, but it might have been when I rendered a view of “Thetis” from its “tropical moon” way back in 2001.     Here I’ve created an alien landscape (evolving the Gaea techniques that I used for “Avernus“, “Arethusa” and “Sinua“) to show of the Dark Star I created last week.   I hope you enjoy it!

Dark Star

Inspiration can strike at any time.   I love to read but usually only find the time right before bed.   Lately I’ve been reading the amazing “Sun Eater” series by Christopher Ruocchio and his description of location in outer space really painted a vivid picture in my head.   I won’t go any further than that because I don’t want to spoil the books for anyone.    Created using Cinema4D Pyro volumetrics and rendered using Redshift.

I hope you enjoy it!

Summer Overlook (Night)

For those who prefer darker desktops here’s a night version of “Summer Overlook“.   Chose not to add too many lights to this one to keep it mostly silhouettes of hills, moonlight and fog.   I considered fireflies but on this scale it I think it would have looked pretty noisy and chaotic.   

I will probably add a Winter version before the year’s end but feel like moving on to something else right now. Been reading a great sci-fi series and it’s got me inspired to do a space scene…
