The real trick with a good night scene is to make it dark but also have details in the right places so it isn’t just too flat. Sometimes I have to rely on moonlight if the scene is uninhabited, but this time I have a little help.
I hope you enjoy it!!

Sorry I got a bit distracted launching my NFT line last week. Back to business!
VUE comes with some great plants, but it also has a pretty nice object library including a set of amazing lighthouses. The last time I tried to model a lighthouse a lot of folks thought it looked a bit more ribald than I had intended (:-D) but the render was otherwise popular. This new model shouldn’t have that problem (whew!). For this version I chose to turn the camera around and feature the landscape rather than the ocean.
I hope you enjoy it!!

I know this probably won’t interest the majority of you, but after months of consideration I’ve minted my first NFT on Foundation.
Important: NFT sales will not effect the availability of my images in the Members Gallery. I retain all copyrights!
Folks have been asking me to jump into this for a long time and I simply can no longer ignore the market. It wasn’t easy picking a render to lead off with but I think I found a nice one. “Dispersion” is of my favorites actually 🙂
I don’t intend to send out emails or make a lot of constant noise on DB about these so I hope you will follow me on Foundation if you are interested futher. Whether or not I add more NFTs will depend on if how well this one does. It cost me quite a bit just to list it so I am hoping for the best!!
I know NFTs are a bit controversial and I hope I don’t anger too many of you by getting to this field. If hundreds of people were signing up as Members every day I probably wouldn’t try it but selling wallpapers online has always been a difficult (but fun) business model. If you guys want DB to stick around another 20 years then NFTs are part of the equation. Thanks for understanding!
I honestly wasn’t sure how to price this so I aimed low to test the waters. LMK if you have any questions!

As promised, here’s the daylit version of “Lupine Vale” that I created last week. In this case I thought it might be interesting to show the night version first so I went ahead and created one and posted it over the weekend. I know a lot of folks were looking for wolves in the night version but the title actually refers to the species of wildflower in the foreground 🙂
They don’t stand out quite as much in the night version but I knew I wanted to use this title. Sorry for the confusion!
I hope you enjoy them both!!

While building “Springwalk” a few weeks ago I tried a few different types of flowers in the undergrowth. One of them was a beautiful lupine species included in the “Plant Catalog” that comes with VUE Enterprise. It didn’t work for that scene but I knew I wanted to do another using it soon.
I’ve created and rendered the daylight version of this scene already (and Jessie has told me it’s very pretty). Before I posted it though I decided I would go ahead and create a night version and show you that first just to shake things up a bit.
Enjoy and please let me know what you think!
