Welcome to the neighborhood.

This scene was made by Marcin Białecki from Evermotion and it is included in Archexteriors vol. 24. You can order this collection in Evermotion Shop. This scene was modeled and set with 3DS Max and rendered with V-Ray (check V-Ray price!).

Materials

Cylinder acts as a tree line. It also uses VrayLight material. It is unwrapped (cylindrical).

The curb is a separate object.

 


Click on image to enlarge 17_nr_2916.jpg

Curb material is rather simple - it combines gradient and two bitmaps in diffuse slot and uses fallof in reflect map slot.

 

Click on image to enlarge 18_nr_2917.jpg

Curb material - diffuse map strength is set to 80%.

 

Click on image to enlarge 20_nr_2919.jpg

Falloff in reflection map slot is set to perpendicular / parallel and in z-axis direction.

Driveway

Driveway has a material that looks sophisticated, but it is quite simple, really. The first four materials are just color variations, the coat material adds extra variation to bumpiness.

This is how this material looks without fallof map.

We used proxy object for roofing, because we don't like slow viewports.

 

Click on image to enlarge 37_nr_2949.jpg

We also used proxies for rocks and grass. Material - ground below grass. the grass was made with Forest Pack, we know that not everyone has this software, that is why we converted it to instances using Forest Tools.

Very nice scene Why you put a falloff shader in the reflection and at the same time the Fresnel is active? When Perpendicula/parallel is pretty close to Fresnel falloff?
mbialecki 14:12:49  |  16-10-2014
Thanks fco3d. The reason why I put falloff in reflection slot is unexplainable ;) Let`s say that this secret knowledge ;)
mbialecki 14:14:13  |  16-10-2014
...and seriously now: everyone makes mistakes ;) even Evermotion :)
fco3d 23:54:28  |  16-10-2014

garthcg 04:11:32  |  09-03-2015
