Lost Wizard

[Vikki]

Hey everyone! :D

I've found a little time today to be able to play. Actually I didn't find any, I just took some. ;)

Anywho, been practicing with the new possibilities of the MM tool. Very cool with a few glitches that I hope to iron out next time I get to play.

Here's the result of practicing today. My poor wizard is lost, the castle so far distant that he cannot see it in any direction. He's finally stopped to take a rest before continuing on his journey.

Involved practice with MM tool, lighting, Plant Studio and post work. :D

Nice image Vikki, it looks great. I'm curious, is it the grass which is plant studio?

Hey thanks for the comments. :D

Ron, all that work that I pushed aside while I was honing my Z skills. Just about caught up though so I'll have more time here real soon. Hopefully by the weekend real world work will be caught up.

Mik, yes, the grass is a single Plant Studio obj imported into Z and turned into a ZTL. Then I used the Spray Brush to populate a Terrain tool with it. I need a little practice keeping the orientation correct when using the Spray Brush as you can see on the right side of the image.

Some post work involved working with Contrast, Color Balance and Saturation.

Now if I could just learn how to create a decent boulder. :D
