jcaffee Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 More art-o-matic. This is a much simpler technique, using only four layers in Photoshop. CA Lineart as an Overlay w/33% opacity and 83% fill Alien Skin Exposure 6 set as Kodak Kodachrome 25(Sharp) slide film on a Difference Layer 24% opacity and 100% fill Alien Skin Bokeh 2 w/two different blur regions and square, white vignette set on a Normal Layer 100%/100% CA Raytrace (The base image that feeds into the processors above) And yes Scott, I'd be more than happy to participate in a meeting to discuss post production of CA generated imagery. jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshall Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 ....... And yes Scott, I'd be more than happy to participate in a meeting to discuss post production of CA generated imagery. jon My gosh Jon, it would be an honor to have you join a WORKSHOP to share your thoughts on post production. I truly appreciate your time on this Jon. I will plan on setting up a Saturday Workshop on a Saturday in January at 6:00 am PST. Since you will be the host of honor and if this time does not work for you, please give me another time that might work better for you. I think there will be a lot of other users who would really appreciate some of your expertise. Thanks so much for your offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr0591 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Hi everyone! Haven't been around CT much in awhile, but I'm glad to see this old thread had been resurrected again. I can't figure out how to post images from my phone, but you can see some of my recent stuff in the slideshow on my homepage: http://castleview3d.com I'll create a portfolio or post some other images soon.

Rich_Winsor Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 And now for something completely different. Kind of like the 3D pipes Windows screensaver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithhe Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 That's nice Rich. I tried to do some mechanical pipes once and found it was difficult to get all the pieces aligned. Where did you get the 90's and T's, and how did you align the pieces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gls123 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Remodel I am working on. First one rendered in 10 minutes if you can believe that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithhe Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I'm assuming you're playing with the focal blur intentionally here? Not sure it works for these traces though. Also, what is the dot of light in the cabinet first image? Oh, and what is the wall material in both images? Looks like a really rough concrete or something, but can't tell.

Dennis_Gavin Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 gls - might want to increase the ambient light settings under 3D view defaults and lose the focal blur as keith mentioned if you are using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithhe Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 OK guys, now what is Thea? See old forum with this same thread title there. Lot's of examples over there. Look at Kathleen's and George's stuff, among others. Long thread, so start most recent and work backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gls123 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Thanks everyone for the feedback. Tuned down the focal blur. Still learning vray materials and lighting and trying to keep render times to about 20 min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich_Winsor Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 That's nice Rich. I tried to do some mechanical pipes once and found it was difficult to get all the pieces aligned. Where did you get the 90's and T's, and how did you align the pieces? I found the fittings on 3D Warehouse under pipe fittings. They had several sizes and included alignment marks which they claimed would facilitate making the connections. It all looked good on paper but when I imported the symbols they wouldn't perform as advertised. It took a lot of blood, sweat and tears and lots of tweaking X, Y & Z coordinates to line things up. Luckily I only had to do one branch and then mirror it to the other side or I might still be pecking away. I don't know what the deal with 3D Warehouse is. Everybody says go there and every time I do I have some type of problem with the imported symbols. I think it's about time I take the bull by the horns and put some serious study into rolling my own.
