Ship in a bottle

[Nix]

Hello guys

I'm working on scene with ship in a bottle.
Here is my first render.

Now I'm improving textures. First of all I want to make grass more realistic. It' should transmit some lights.
I'm testing which material will be the best. Any Ideas?

Also I noticed that ship will have poor lighting so I will need to render it separately and compose images in postpro.

Comments and constructive critique will be welcome

Maybe try glossy translucent? I think it was used by some other users in scenes with tree leaves.

I'm testing it right now but didn't get nice result yet
Thanks ^^

Hello there

Little update:

I fixed textures; added sky and changed position and size of bottle.
DOF will be added to final image.

One more thing. Render is very noise when I'm using HDRi lighting

It's 1h rendering. Whether this image after 20h will be clear?
Because I noticed that some noise effects can't be reduced.

Hello,

Well I want to share with you guys some things about my new render.

1. I rendered image with 120 s/p. Not much but in this case it's enought because actualy it will be blured in post production.
2. Using border render I rendered space on which we will focus. It's almost 900 s/p.
By this technique I saved much time.
3. And finally composited images, defocused and correct colors.

Here is final image:

I hope you like it. Comment please!


Also this scene was a little test for me.

It has 489704 polygons and 512615 vertex without stones and grass.
Actually I'm not able to view all stone objects because blender crashs so I cant check number of polygons in blender.

Let's count all polygons:
(every stone has 80 polygons and there is 770 700 stones so it gives us 61 656 000 polygons) + (500 grass blades - every has 48 polygons which gives us 24 000 polygons) + (rest of the objects - 489 704 polygons) = 62 169 704 polygons!

That's much. For example yafaray can't handle it.
That's another thing why I love Luxrender

I've just started journey with Lux and during creating this scene I learned much about it.

Wow I really like that final render, it looks awesome

Also, how much ram was used for the ~62 Million Polygons?

I've got only 4 GB RAM (1333mhz) if that's what you ask.

Awesome pictures indeed!

What integrator did you use to render the images? Path tracer? Bidirectional pat tracer? Progressive photon mapper?

Thanks

I used Bidirectional.
