H2o2 rendering thread
Hi guys, here are some renders i have done recently with Indigo (RT for now, i need to buy a full license one or the other to get the extras features !), as i'm starting to get used to the way it works (still a long way to get the right to think i'm mastering it, though !).
Hopefully those few renders will be a good start, more to come soon.

Re: H2o2 rendering thread
So the first one is a "copy" of a room i saw in a magazine.
As i thought it was looking great, i tried to do some renders from the photo !

Cool h2o2!
I especially like the material of the lamp shade, although it looks like sort of a thin plastic rather than cloth.
Also, the plaster of the walls needs a little more work IMHO: it seems kind of a rustic one with those more dark areas, but the finishing surface is quite smooth..
There is a little noise still present in the image. How long did these render? Did you make any postproduction?

Re: H2o2 rendering thread
Here is another series, shamelessly inspired (or should i say copied ?) from a superb render by Mister Bertrand Benoit. (well does he ever make so-so render ?)
So the renders here are done with various mood from night to "white" day.
In this one i used the technique told by TheSquirrel to add some dirt on my windows.
I think the effect can be a lot better but it's a start !

Mr. Bertrand Benoit? You mean: the Wizard?
No: he doesn't make so-so renders. He can't.

Re: H2o2 rendering thread
Wow thanks guys for your quick replies !
Yeah, the lamp shade was finally some sort of a "miss", unfortunately.
I had another one showing a better effect but for some reason i had artifacts on it so i decided to retake the material and this one isn't as convincing.
Still learning !
As for the render times, those were still pretty "quick" (for a physical render engine, that is...) but i think they can be accelerated when i get more used to Indigo and the way it works.
As for the wall, i agree the effect is too strong and that's a thing i really need to work on, keeping subtil effects and avoid having too contrasted textures as it leads to this kind of "so-so" material.
Hopefully the second series is a bit better and the next coming will be even more realistic !
Cheers,
Laurent aka Tartiflette.

I agree, as i often say : "When i'm all grown up, i would like to be Bertrand Benoit !"
(The fact that i'm a lot older than he is isn't relevant in this case ! )

Re: H2o2 rendering thread
Here is the lamp shade material i had before, with the artifacts unfortunately.
I think the material was better though.

Also, what is your modeling app, Tarti?

Re: H2o2 rendering thread
The second series: were they done using Light layers? Are they all the same render?
Like em a lot.

Re: H2o2 rendering thread
My workflow is a bit of a mess but here it is :Pibuz wrote:Also, what is your modeling app, Tarti?
- Modeling with LightWave. (so used to it after 20 years)
- First pass texturing in LightWave. (where i bake the RAW color as well as a specular map and a bump map usually)
- Second pass texturing, if needed, with either Substance Painter and Substance Designer.
- Importing all the assets in blender to build the scene and export to Indigo
- Final touches to the materials as well as the light balance and all the look research directly in Indigo.
And, at the end, i try to have a cool render.
Cheers,
Laurent aka Tartiflette.

No light layers, unfortunately, as i'm using Indigo RT "only" for now.
I need to buy the upgrade to the full Indigo license, now that i'm really starting to use it. (been the owner of this Indigo RT license since 2011 but never really managed to use it as i would have hoped)

Re: H2o2 rendering thread
Indigo RT doesn't have Light Layers?
You're gonna LOVE Indigo full then.

Unfortunately not, and i agree it would be great to be able to use those light layers !Oscar J wrote:Indigo RT doesn't have Light Layers?

Soon, when i finally get my hands on full Indigo license.
