Fluorescence[11]

Fluorescence[11]

After I posted the UKR version of “Fluorescence” a few weeks ago some folks noticed that the new version looked a bit “cleaner” than the original. It’s true that I had to clean some things up to render that a new version of that file.

Fluorescence[6] is probably my most famous render, but I’ve never been able to create proper versions for modern monitors because I created it using an old version of Lightwave (version 6) and the newer versions render things a bit differently.

This is my basically my attempt to create a more “modern” version of an old wallpaper for 4k monitors and above. I used Lightwave 11 this time so I’ve reflected that in the title. Will I render a new version using my new tools someday? Of course 😄

On a personal note I just returned from some much needed family time away from the workstation and I am looking forward to getting back to my crystals.

Crystalline (Night - Green)

I’ve created a green version of my crystals by request. It will live in the Pickle Jar until we decided which color is the best 🙂
LMK what you think in the comments!

Crystalline (Night)

As soon as I posted “Crystalline” folks were asking if I could do a night version. I’m usually all too happy to try one, but this scene presented a few challenges. The main one being that the lighting comes from an “environment map” which is basically a spherical 360 degree photo with extra exposure data encoded.

So to darken this scene I edited that background image to make it look more like night. It’s trickery though (like how they did those old movies…shooting during the day and darkening the film). I’m still learning how to set up lighting in Houdini so I hope it looks ok.

Let me know what you think!

Crystalline

Back to learning how to use Houdini. I’ve always been fascinated with crystals and how they interact with the light. The goal here was to learn how to use the Houdini’s Karma renderer along with subsurface scattering and transparency.

Full disclosure: I followed this tutorial to learn how to model the crystals themselves but I think I’ve added enough of my own creativity to share the render in my gallery. LMK what you think 🙂

Fluorescence (UKR)

If you’ve followed my work throughout the years you know that I like DB to be a refuge from the real world. Come here to forget everything and get lost in my galleries. Sometimes, however, real life cannot be ignored.

I’ve created this version of “Fluorescence” in the Ukrainian colors to show that I stand 100% behind those brave folks who are defending their country from a type of criminal invasion that I had hoped was a relic of the past. I’ve added it to my free gallery and will be making other sizes available to download for free shortly.
