Here is the latest update ...



I love the moon effect...

render time 1:46:27

With your latest render it look really good, but some changes...

Since that is an open sea background maybe add the but just make then rounded and a rustic steel texture. Still not a huge fan of the lighting so what I'd suggest for that , again, since it's open sea you can add a dock light or two. Something like this

nice work so far
though you should change the lights on the ships
They're a little too blinding
also where your dirt is on the pavement seems "hard"
you could alter the pavement texture so the dirt seems to fade

[paragon]

You could instead of changing the texture just add some particles of sand there.

Take out the bum at the edges of the sand a bit to make it look like maybe a wet sand pile would, and it might look better. Either way would look better.

Thanks for the tips...

I might just add a dock at the end???
and the dirt material ... i will try

[flynn181]

hmmm paragon is right
it would be easier to make particles of sand than changing your texture

[killoskate]

Paragon...i dont quite get you... wont the particals Float???

Also I am looking for a good tutorial in outside lighting and dirt materials

[paragon]

I don't exactly mean particles from an explosion; I mean if you pick up that sand on your scene and through it there will be particles of sand everywhere. Also if you walk off a beach you'll see sand everywhere because of people kicking it around as they leave. Is that what you needed to understand?
