Mermaid, Hansmar, adbc, Horo, S Ray, nvllcasting, Elvis : Great works! I haven't visited the forum for a few weeks and enjoyed catching up on everyone's posts.
I've been busier with work so haven't Bryce'd as much this month but here are a few sci-fi-y scenes from the last couple of days of fiddling. It seems I will never get over the mirror material :)
Hope all are well !
adbc:
- A dystopian building with cool texture work, just perfect for that Biker from Hell. :)
- A pretty landscape with beautiful moody lighting.
Horo: Great landscape work. Wonderful terrain and water mats.
Hansmar: Another set of fantastic landscapes.
Now I feel the sudden urge to play with some Hubisms for creating bizarre terrains. I'll keep you updated about possible results.
@Hansmar - I'm going to borrow both your paintings to run them thru the TE-Filter, hopefully you don't mind.
Benbr11- a lovely set of sci-fi renders, well done, the 2nd is my fav. Thanks
benbr11 : Thank you. You made a wonderful set of scifi images, well done.
hubert : thank you.
benbr11 - well done, yes.
benbr11 - thanks. Three nice sci-fi renders, the second one is ma favorite.
hubert - thank you.
Images of a rock, clouds and flower were manipulated in the TE Filter Program by Horo, after changing the resolutions and making them into a 16bit tiffs. Lighting from Inclement weather and material from Terrain stacking, not a very exciting result but I had fun with it.
mermaid - that came out very nice, the biplane is a good addition.
Thanks Horo
mermaid, the terrain is super interesting as I can't do that at all. The lighting is realistic and the biplane is perfect in the scene.
benbr11: Three cool images. Great mats and lighting.
Mermaid: Your terrain work...... "rocks"! Just awesome. Well put into scene with that plane and the POV.
Thanks NGartplay and Hubert
Hey, all. I hope everyone is doing well. I doing ok, just busier than a one-legged man in a butt kicking contest! Whew! I hate to post and run without commenting, but I only have a few minutes, but will come back soon. Here's a few abstracts I have been working on. I love 'em and am enjoying making variations of these themes.
See you soon.
Art
Fencepost: Fascinating abstracts with intricate details and beautiful coloring! My favorite is the third (sorta caleidoscopic) one.
And now for s.th. completely different from my side, a....... landscape. ;)
"Luxuriant oasis":
A Bryce7 render with one 4k-sized terrain. -- I used an old Hubism image from 2012 to create this terrain. The mat is a slightly tweaked Bryce7 default mat. The palm tree is an imported mesh ('3D-Cafe' freestuff from 1998).
Fencepost - always good to see you here, Art. Three really great abstracts. The first looks a bit like a butterfly, the second is a beautiful shape, nice shiny colours contrasting to the dark backdrop and the third looks like a lot of flowers, an outstanding image.
hubert - very luxuriant oasis with a palm. Looks a bit like a town. Nicely done.
Two spheres with self made textures with which the spheres were displaced, made transparent and coloured. In each sphere is a white radial light. Spheres and camera are within a dark white cylinder with cast shadows disabled so that the HDRI can illuminate the scene from the outside.
Just for fun, the same render as above, but the textures also used as Gel on the radials.
Fencepost its always a pleasure to see your work, three outstanding abstracts, awesome materials and lighting.
Hubert very nice render looks like a medieval village, so cool
Horo wow fantastic work, the reflections are awesome.
Fencepost, you have a right to think your images are beautiful because they are. The intricasy of the first and last are mind boggling. The second is like liquid silk.
hubert, love the lone palm tree in your cityscape, what a fun image.
Horo, amazing materials and also that your computer has no trouble rendering them. So pretty.
Horo:
- Thanks for the comment.
- Cool Spheres/Mats! The structure reminds me of early satellites. My favorite is the less blurry first one. Whereas I like the colored lighting on the ground in the second image.
Mermaid, NGartplay: Thanks for the nice comment. That terrain made me immediately think of a city too (kinda ancient African desert city).
About that lonely palm: There existed more than 10.000 palms there..... before the city grew rapidly. ;)
Here's another bizarre landscape.
"Ringworld":
Bryce7 with one 4k-sized terrain, created from an old "DTE-Hubism" bitmap, which I also used for the coloring. (The terrain object is set to be not anti-aliased.) -- That "Classic Rocket" model is a free Bryce-OBP (from around 2001) created by Kim Lenz. I adde three astronauts made from Bryce primitives ("Loooowres rulez!")
FYI: Two more such landscapes will follow. Then I'll have to recover from making "landscapes" and will play with Hubisms. ;)
mermaid : beautiful terrain landscape, great terrain material.
Fencepost : very interesting abstracts, all very well done.
hubert : amazing (desert) city and ring world, very inventive.
Horo : Beautiful renders, love the reflection and the colours.
Thank you mermaid and NGartplay.
hubert - thank you. Interesting Ringworld and very nicely done.
adbc - thank you.
Hubert interesting idea the ringworld, very nicely done
Adbc thanks
Thanks, all. The fun thing about these abstracts is they only require a sphere, cube, or other simple object (maybe 2 or 3), a bump map that drives the design, and sometimes a slightly positive hyper texture on the reflections for added control. They render fast and variations can be made quickly. You've heard people saying that something is just smoke and mirrors? Well, these are all mirrors. LOL I used David B's abstract videos on YouTube as a starting point: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=david+brinnen+abstract Generally the 3 related to super reflection.
Horo, I love your renders and the 2nd best, just because I like the added color. I was recently trying to use the displace tool in Bryce and couldn't manage it with a default sphere and then tried a sphere I created in Wings, and nothing happened. I even had the priority set to low. How did you pull this off? I know you have magic powers, so please share! LOL
And here's three more...
Super Reflection

Basic Mirrored Box Recipe
oooh, cool renders fencepost!
i'm working on a new scene to test out hdris for the first time (y'all are inspiring me haha), but i'm not sure what to put in the scene. :P consider this a sneak peek and also a cry for help for objects to add lol
Fencepost - thank you. Three beautiful abstract, the first is my favorite. My problem with abstracts is that I never know which variation is the best.
Concerning Displacement. All Bryce primitives work, except Metaballs. You have to put a texture, alpha only, to Displacement and move it a bit up to check the result. Mine above have it at 20. Nothing magic as long as you stay at Low Priority.
nvllcasting - landscape looks nice. Maybe a bit more contrast would be good IMO. Experiment with Sun Shadow at 100, Sky Dome black, no Ambience and no Gamma Correction. If you are happy with the look of it now, then it is also correct - the artist is always right. An object - well, I also struggle with that. What about a sail ship?
Fencepost - three fantastic abstracts, I like then all, like Horo I also have a problem which variant is best, so I upload most of them to my Pinterest board.
Nvllcasting - lovely landscape, you could add a sailing boat or even an monument.
hubert, you called it...bizzare indeed. I love all the curls.
Art, the metallic play is cool but that last, colorful one is beautiful.
nvilcasting, wonderful landscape. Has perfect depth.
Fencepost : three cool renders, love the colours and reflections.
nvllcasting : wonderful landscape.
Horo, Mermaid, NGartplay: Thanks.
Fencepost52: Gorgeous! My favorites are the two at the top. Wonderful metal mats!
nvllcasting: I cannot see any image in your post??
(quote) "but i'm not sure what to put in the scene. :P"
I suggest a big Shiny Sphere™... whereas I am possibly biased regarding this specific topic. ;)
@ all: And yet another bizarre landscape.
"The Grander Canyon"! (Only recently discovered 500 yards to the east of the Grand Canyon.)
(A Bryce7 4k terrain made from an old Bryce4 DTE-Hubism image. The Terrain is not antialised to keep the crisp look. The "Leonardo planes" are free 3DS models, downloaded around 2007 at "archive3d.net".)
Hubert another interesting hubism landscape, nice addition of the planes
