Garden

This is a render from yesterday.
Note: theres is only one huge spotlight in this scene.

Im pretty much sitting with a bunch of Gruffalo screencaps infront of me trying to capture the same colour palette as they used, seeing as its been our biggest influence on this project.

Im really quite pleased with the fences - they've turned out better than i thought they would.

I've still got to bump map the grass and the dirt and im a little worried about the edging where the grass and dirt meet, its too harsh and makes the grass look like water. I thought about maybe a short level of grass skirting around the edge, but this would be quite a lengthy a boring thing to do so i dunno. I might just see if indenting the edge makes a difference, it seems to have worked were the fences and dirt meet.

Annoyingly over the last day or so an couple of files have corrupted and i need some stuff -
UV'd Flowepots + Wheelbarrow (got off Sarah this morning)
UV''d Tree Stump (wasn't with the rest of the props)
All the bushes and leaves.
Mushrooms (apparently still being UV's)

  1. the stump is not in the set? u shoulda said...i'll send it through.
    the garden looks awesome btw, just desaturate the fences a lil bit cos the brown is quite intense, needs to look a lil faded as if the suns bleached the wood but otherwise you've totally captured the gruffalo look so big welldone.
    Yep the border does bother me too but tbh we coudnt do much with the model there. There needs to be a mixture of grass tufts as well as leaves decorating round, leaves gather up round the sides and would have fallen from the shrubs. This week we need to sort out the garden shrubs and make sure this is working.
    the files are on the public folder in the environment folder which you had open the other day at college so everything else should be there.
    And the mushrooms have only been sent off bcos they needed tweaking so there literally being done.
