Twilight Sonata (Happy 4th!)
Multi-Screen Render
Not sure I am 100% happy with how this one turned out, but I thought it would be a fun exercise to create fireworks using Plant Factory and I wanted to post it before the 4th of July. There were definitely some challenges but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless. It will probably go in the Pickle Jar on 7/5 🙂
If you are celebrating Independence Day tomorrow I hope you stay safe, cool, and have a great time.
Non-watermarked lossless 8K version available to Lifetime Supporters and Plus Level Members (and above). Not sure if I have time to render the multiscreen of this one before 7/4 🙁

Sunrise Sonata
Multi-Screen Render
My last two renders have been a bit on the stranger side so I thought it might be a good time to do something with a little more universal appeal. I created “Sunrise Sonata” over the course of a single morning this week on Bucephalus and rendered it while “The Opening” was finishing up on Shadowfax.
You know I love a good tropical scene from time to time and I hope you do too!

The Opening
Multi-Screen Render
What can I say? Sometimes I’m happy to make a nice forest with bluebells and sometimes I feel the need to create a cosmic phenomenon dominating the sky over an alien sea. Hopefully if you’ve been following my work for a few years you’ve come to expect that the next wallpaper will rarely be similar to the last.
I’m continuing my exploration of using Plant Factory to model non-plant objects here. The “opening” was created using PF and rendered using Lightwave. The foreground apparatus was also modeled in PF.
I hope you enjoy it. I have another new project rendering on Bucephalus which will be a bit more “conventional” 🙂

Rhizome
Multi-Screen Render
I’ve been busy lately working on a new sci-fi render on my Shadowfax workstation but when Bucephalus finished rendering the Misty Ridge multiscreen I was able to start another new project in my basement office. For this one I wanted to better learn Plant Factory’s “Material Blending”, whereby it will create a smooth blend between two connected objects. The result is this simple, hopefully striking, organic abstract.
Hope to have the new scenic render finished by early next week!

Misty Ridge
Multi-Screen Render
Growing up in flat Illinois I’ve always been fascinated with clouds intersecting land. Where I come from they are always in the sky. With this scene I was trying to learn some new techniques for rendering misty clouds and trying to keep the render times reasonable. I hope you enjoy it!
