Thanks
Well there is some image maps, blended with some gradients to decide where what it going to appare, and exponent map for the snow of course, and bump map
Can be quite usefull

oh ! my!! your images are so simple but so simply convincing.
how long did the water render? on my computer, it is always very long to start being clear so i am very impressed because you post so often interesting images, techniques etc...
in order to fasten my renders, i reduce water refraction i noticed. less realistic but not that shocking.

CTZn: Thanks, hopefully there will be some more renders that will fall in taste
djegoo: Thanks
I did render 3 images at the same time(all the ones with water) for 9 hours, but it didnt need to render that long

Sweet rendering, Stromberg!
the glass rim looks like drinking out of it will leave you scarred for life

Nick: Thanks
zeitmeister: Glad you liked it
I might render it again with some motion blur on
Fused: Thanks, and i think i forgott to bevel the rim actualy, so you might not want to touch the rim when drinking

Wow, very nice render!
some crits:
* Hanging power line and broken building in center/back need more polies.
* Metal panels on ground need a dirtier material
* ground texture tiles a bit behind metal panels.
Nice stuff!

Great start!
I agree with all that ono said and I have a few things to add.
-I didn't immediately make out what was laying in the middle on the ground. If they are metal they should be roughened up and maybe rusty.
-The brick wall on the left looks a bit flat compared to the rock walls on the right
(you can also see the brick texture repeat).
-One of the lines looks like it runs straight into a wall, while the others don't. It just looks out of place to me
(kinda of nitpicky, but it's just something I noticed)
Are the hanging clothes in the background modeled or textures? Either way, they look pretty good.
Other than that it's looking good
