I meant to add, use the trees as proxies otherwise the polygon count will kill you.

I like the Luxigon style where pretty much everything but the basic render is done in photoshop. but if you can get onyx Treestorm which comes with a grass generator and and a lot of trees that can be changed and there is a free ivy generator that I posted somewhere on here but I can’t remember the name.

Most people just seem to get the…[Read more]

never mind, found the tutorial

I REALLY like the itoosoft, wish the full version was free though so I could use some of my own images. Still working on the shadows though…

I got the same question with Alexandru, I’v been told to use photoshop do the aftereffect of vegetation for plan or the cluster of trees and grasses in 3dmax would drag my laptop to work exemely slowly.Is there any good suggestion for the plugin programmes to create vivid planting elements in 3d max?

I believe it is a Nvidia 280 GTM, middle of the range but still better than the one on my old computer that ran max 2010 quite well. i7, 8 gigs of ram. Having some photoshop problems too. pretty much everything is frames per second related, it makes zooming and moving things around so hard.

My experience with 3ds max 2010 on Windows 7 Enterprise x64 has been very good. Its certainly a huge step up from Vista. I’ve got a nice set of graphics cards though so maybe thats the difference. What kind of hardware are you running?

So what are people’s experiences with windows 7 and max? I am running 7 professional 64bit and max 2010 64 bit and having some problems, mainly graphics card related. very low fps which is making it hard to model. though I am hoping that max 2011 which comes out in the next month will help.

barlow, I would really be interested in seeing what European style sketches are and what one would percieve is the common american style of drawing?

Anyway we can get some quick sketch technique (marker, colored pencil, pastel etc) and rendering tutorials on here ?

tim-

you bring up a good point..atmosphere is difficult to convey in hand drawn work. all I can think of at the moment is airbrush..

Too many palm trees, so here is my frozen front yard, Shawn White eat your heart out!

Of course, I will share it with you. Nice pics on your profile:)

Greetings 🙂

Cool – I want to read it when you’re done.

Hi 🙂

generally said, I write about my beloved Sarajevo and its post-war urban structures incl. landscapes. It is very interesting I think. I have the whole next semester to finish and I´m traveling there this week.

Hope you´re also doing some interesting stuff. Keep us updated 🙂

Good luck with that, Haris! It’ll be over before you know it. I’m sure you’ll do great – what’s the topic?

Hi everybody,
yes, I miss it too.

Greets from Berlin where I write my Master-thesis 🙂

How is everyone doing? I miss our group, hope everyone is well 🙂

anyone know the best way to convey “god rays” in drawn perspectives? thanks
