Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Here is a render I created for the Dassault company. Doing a render like this is completely new for me, so it was definitely a learning process as I worked through it.

Awesome!

That's a beauty! Great job!

Did they want such a sharp turning angle?

Thanks guys! Regarding the angle, we just used an angle that would create a dynamic image...so just for vanity purposes really.

Great image, was it composited inside Maxwell or in postwork?

Great model, great image! A bit noisy still though

It was composited in post.

The noise was just due to the background photo they chose...I had to match to that.

Very cool image! do you have a image of the plane on the ground?

I do not have an image of the plane on the ground. Since this was my first time doing a render like this, and since I normally do product renders, I just made everything to look good from this specific angle. In the future I will...for this first one, I just had to get it done. It was a lot of learning as I went along, both from the modeling and rendering side. In the future you should see some different angles (hopefully) but from what I understand, they wanted an air to air shot in CG because it is a ton of money to do it with traditional photography, as you can imagine.

Beautiful image. You seem to have transitioned from product shots to a render of this scale very well. Good work.

hello Justin.
Beautifull work. Just a question : the turbine blades seem to be static. Should not there be a motion blur?

Damnit, you make a good point. I DO remember thinking about that at one point when I was working on the image, but it just completely slipped my mind in the end. I'll add that in for my portfolio. In the end they chagned the angle completely and you barely see them...A terrible and boring angle in my opinion....sigh.

show it!

I really HATE that -- in my life as an illustrator I was fortunate to rarely be asked for changes, but when I was doing graphic design that happened daily... there was a theory at my workplace that customers did it because they wanted to exercise control and get the feeling of "getting their moneys worth" by having the artist jump through hoops. Almost always the work is worse for their meddling...

I didn't last long in graphic design (although my boss begged me to stay) and I ultimately left the whole commercial art field altogether, and this was one of my primary reasons.
