Shifting Sands (Night)

I thought “Shifting Sands” was a good candidate for a night time version. Most of my night versions are more about the sky than the ground, but I here I wanted the muted lighting to highlight the curves and waves of the sand dunes (some in silhouette). Let me know what you think!

Shifting Sands

Every Christmas my Mom and I exchange calendars. She receives a DB calendar and I receive the new Sierra Club offering, which hangs in our kitchen throughout the year. I am often inspired by the beautiful nature images and every once in awhile I try to recreate something from the calendar.

It so happens the May 2017 page features a lovely photo of sand dunes…

I created this scene as an exercise to learn how to better use World Machine and the Geoglyph plugin. I hope you enjoy the results!

Non-watermarked lossless 8K version available to Lifetime Supporters and Plus Level Members (and above). Multiscreen versions coming soon!

Arcadia

This is a project that I developed on Bucephalus while my Shadowfax workstation was struggling to render “Aquarii“. Here I was attempting to create “willowy” trees using The Plant Factory. As the idea progressed I thought it would be more interesting to make blooming ones.

Dedicated to my lovely wife Jessica on Mother’s Day 2017! Purple is her favorite color 🙂

I hope you enjoy it. Non-watermarked lossless 8K version available to Lifetime Supporters and Plus Level Members (and above). Multiscreen versions coming soon!
