THe lighting is damn good! I dont like cutting off cars in perspectives, it always looks a little unnatural - but other than that well done.

thanks for the info. And yes i've checked guthries tutorial allready. I'm learning vray at the moment and hope to have such nice results as you in the future. autograss for the grass?

No, the grass is a vray displacement modifier. Same as I used here I have some advancements to make in the field of grass (excuse the pun) but never seem to find the time, but will need to play catch-up before too long. The plants on the bank are from Evermotion. The trees to the rear are a map which I think came from Got3Ds collection of tree lines. These have proven to be invaluble. Good luck with the studying. I'm looking forward to seeing the results.

Yeah no problem. The settings are all default for both irradiance map and light cache. You're correct, it is a vray dome light and HDRI. The HDRI is Peter Guthrie's 1725-Sun-Clouds with the output amount set to 2. The vray light multiplier is set to 1 and I've mucked about a little with the tone curve for the additional contrast, pretty much as Guthrie explains in his HDRI tutorial. (very good if you haven't done it). I've also added a little in post but not a great deal. The Land Rover is from the Dosch. The 2007 collection, I think. They're pretty good but a little memory intensive. Hope this helps.

could you share you're vray settings with us? vraylight dome with hdri map? where did you buy the 3d model of the land rover?

Thank you all very much for your encouraging comments. They're very much appreciated. This was a very interesting job to work on simply because it was a break from the norm without getting out of my comfort zone. Regarding the angular hill, that's how it showed up on the contour plan I was given. I was minded to change it and smooth it off but the client was so happy with the image I thought 'if it's not broken, why fix it?'. Again, thanks for the kind words.

Very unique and nice work! Congrats!

Very impressive. Really good work on that composting.

Hi, as always very nice and photorealistic

looking at it again i take my words back regarding to the slope. It looks nice like it is. pretty impressive rendering.

this is great, there is something about this image which keeps me looking at it, v nice work.

Looks really good, congrats. My only problem with the image is the pointy hill on the right side. Try smoothing out the ridges to create a more gradual slope.

i agree

Well Done. Nice image and a neat concept.
