Vray Environment Fog as Clouds

One last cloud test. Flying through the clouds.

Clouds with Vray Environment Fog

I made a little movie fly-around of a 747  in a 20 miles x 20 miles area of Vray clouds.  Here are a few images from that little movie. Also, the landing gear is down.  Ooops.

Here is the movie:

Vray 3.20.02 Environment Fog

Inside the gizmo

Outside the gizmo

Near the gizmo - Render time on my machine 1:14 minutes

I always forget how to get the Vray Environment Fog to render somewhat quickly so I thought I would post my settings here so I can find them.  I think the main things is that the steps should be about 1/3 the distance.  

My gizmo is 6000 x 6000 x 3500 units. My units are in Feet

I used a noise for the density.

From the side

Just a test.

This is rendered VRayEnvironmentFog, rendered depth of field, rendered lens effect, vray fur, and vray instancer. All rendered. Don't ask me why, just seemed like something I wanted to see.  It actually seemed to render pretty fast.  Especially compared to versions in the past.

Chocolate Wii Remotes - Vray -Older Version

These are some old images I found. They were done with an older version of Vray.  Fast SSS

Vray - Kitchen Remodel - Work In Progress

Worked on cabinet doors, back splash, and cabinet pulls.  For some reason the back splash looks pinkish. It should look what is below.

Wall Color:

Kitchen Remodel - Vray

Updated cabinets and counter top.

House Walk-through Vray Render

House walk-through. Rendered with Vray.

The compression artifacts are from uploading it to my blog.  I'm not sure why that happens or if it is avoidable. I will need to look into it.

Another idea.

Remodel Visualization - Vray

Progress on the remodel visualizations.

Small House Remodel - Work In Progress Images - Rendered with Vray

Work in progress images of a remodel.  These are in progress and not something that would be shown the client unless they asked to see them.  They are just tests for me as I put in materials, lights and geometry place holders.  These images are primarily just for me so there is no post work done to them.

Piano - Vray

Just an idea I'm working with.  I sometimes need furniture for architectural renderings and I might be able to use this.

Another try at Vray Fur for Grass and Vray Instancer

Vray Fur as Grass.  I used grey scale images to control height, width, and gravity effect of the fur. Also, the trees aren't mapped or textured the greatest, I was mostly working on the grass.

I used Vray Instancer to locate the Vray Proxy trees.

Vray 3.10.01 Fur as grass

Another try at vray fur as grass.  This image is a little blurry and the trees were just thrown in so they aren't so hot.  I'll try it again tomorrow.

Just a hole in the ground... with some water.

Just messing with a displacement map problem I had.

Dungeons and Dragons 3D Map rendered with Vray 3.10.01

I took a map from a dungeon and dragons game that my boys like to play and started to build in in 3D to see what my interpretation of it might look like.  These are very much 'work in progress' so they don't look great at all.  But I thought they did look a little interesting.  You can see the image maps I used to build from on the floors.
