  • Electro Elvis: Nice Idea and well done.

    Spuddy: both are beautiful... can't say whitch one is better.

  • HoroHoro Posts: 10,641

    spuddy - both are very nice but I think the first is more "sunsety".

    spuddy : both sunsets are beautiful, the first one has my preference.

    My first entry : Summer sunset.

    Electro-Elvis - "Ruler of the Sunset" is a super idea - he looks like he's about to flick the sun back up to make it daytime again!

    Spuddy - "catching the last rays" / "Meditation" - both lovely, but I think I prefer the first.
    "Sunset Mountain" has good sunset-ty colours and a nice atmosphere.

    adbc - "Summer Sunset" again has lovely sky colours and I like those trees, especially the ones in the centre and to the right.

    adbc - very nice mood on your sunset.

    spuddy - very realistic sunset over the mountains. I see that sort of clouds often at sunset when I look out of the window - though often there are also trails from aircrafts flying high over the mountains.

    spuddy, MelanieL, Horo : thank you.

    spuddy : difficult choice between you two renders. You are right about the mountains in "sunset mountain2", I prefer the sky on the first one. Both are very nicely done.

    just noticed that the far plane was facing the wrong way he has been there and was on his way back !......not paying enough attention to details

    now called into the sunset 2

    Spuddy: you have been very active. The first one with the lady I prefer, because of te great light through the clouds. For the others, I would chose at least one with spitfires, but cannot decide which one.

    adbc: Very nice light on those trees, love it. Not so sure about the texture of the road. Or is that a stream?

    I made a first entry. Used a terrain from Karanta and an Oasis I found at Renderosity from Chacornac. That resulted in the trees and the tent and the bushes. I also found some additional items from another tent freebie from Nergal. The camel is also a freebie. Hope nobody really notices that it is a stone camel. The sky is one of the HDRI enhanced skies by Horo (Warm and Cloudy) that I ever so slightly modified. I added a very weak distant light that only lights the oasis items to get a bit more whitish light on these. Preset textures for the terrain and the water.

    I call it "Desert sunset"

    Thanks  Hansmar...yes into the sunset 3 will prob be my second entry...all the spitfire ones are the same except for putting slight errors right.. As this is a WIP thread the ones before  are what the spitfire one evolved from....IE liked the sky in one but liked the mountains better in 2 but found the composition a bit dull hence the spitfires which  originally were going to be one plane banking into a sunset set at an angle over a terrain but that didn't work out too well

    Desert Sunset  A nice interesting scene I like the overall look
