Atmospheric Lake

[B.Y.O.B.]

To test Lux v2.3, I created a small scene.
Rendered on RTX 2080 in 30 min, denoised with OIDN.
All textures are procedural, not a single image texture was used.
The clouds were created with a heterogeneous volume with textured scattering.

This entry won first place in the BlenderArtists weekend challenge #870.

Wasn't it 1 x Lux render Vs 24 x Cycles renders ?

Devil's smile

Something like that, yes.
But maybe that changes in the next competition, since I picked "Caustics" as the theme

Really nice render, the reflections in the water went really well.

Saw that! Looking forward to the next competitions entries...

Really nice work man! Nice captured mood.
I would have tried adding some figure/s doing something (like around a campfire maybe?) in the foreground.
Incredible that all those are procedural.

Nice

Very well done, B.Y.O.B. Congratulation
I like this beautiful up-mood render, especially the clouds and the colors.

What a progress compared with your first clouds! Wow!

Do you mean thoses clouds are not hdri but pure volumetric shape ? if yes that is an achievement

Congrats! I love that you picked "Caustics" to invite people to try LuxCoreRender, that's very smart ^^
