Hauksbee 103 Posted March 21, 2009 I posted a series of pics today of an Albatros tangling with a Airco DH-2. [3D models of my own, not screen shots from OFF] I acidently posted one twice, but I don't see a 'Delete' button. Seems there must be one close by? [The attached pic is the one.] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jammer28 0 Posted March 21, 2009 Very nice! I like it. What did you use for the background? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnGresham 0 Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) A photo culled from a book on Chesapeake Bay from the air. It's a strong compsition and a good start, but you need to make the direction and colour of the lighting on your models consistent with that of the background image. At the moemnt they look like they're sitting on top of the background photograph rather than being part of its world.

At the moemnt they look like they're sitting on top of the background photograph rather than being part of its world. True. It was a consistent background that I used as I worked on the modeling and posed the two planes. Lighting will vary wildly. Sometimes it was correct but I moved a light, or two, to bring out shadowed details. Over three days, or so, of modeling and tweaking, I must have rendered out about 20 full-screen shots. I put a few on the Gallery. Anyone know how to remove a duplicate? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
