Eric please mercy! I use very detailed grass models available on the market but always is something to improove... especially when uniqueness is needed. Gadzooks thank you.
My Maxwell Motion Blur Flys Squad is ready for action

[Neb]

Partice emitters with force modificators for Flys Motion Blur Squad.

[Neb]

Flys in action. Maxwell rendered motion blur for flys bodies movement and also for flys wings animation. Cool!

[Neb]

Eric, right! I added some holes in medium grass leafs

[lebulb]

Obviously, with flying insects, it's really nice

[eric nixon]

Ah, but you could map the leaf holes as a ghost bsdf into a separate channel, for global randomness... You know you want to...

Ofcourse theres no need to rush to 'finish' the scene yet, personally I like to work on several projects and switch between them, because then I will have time to mull each project over and think of improvements gradually. And also there is an opportunity for techniques learnt in one project to inform another... but like I said before, I rarely finish anything.

[Neb]

Lebulb thx!
Eric ghost bsdf it's good idea because as we can see uv map is too regular on the leafs... I'll decide after first test
Usually I work on one big project but I have started a few smallest too and they waiting to be finished

[tonifres]

the flying insects looks very nice Neb!

[Neb]

Thank you Toni! They rendering now as final image. I would like to finish entire project next week maybe. Two views are almost ready, two next in progress

[Neb]

I added stump and very small young pine trees on the ground. Finish is close. Only just a few small things to do

[Neb]

Stump update.

[rusteberg]

Neb, just wanted to chime in and say that I'm really enjoying watching your work progress on this.

[Neb]

Thank you very much! I'm appreciate. I'm also motivated by your suggestions in this wip topic

[Neb]

I need to make this bike more dirty I guess...

[rusteberg]

well, yes.... the bike looks like it just came out of the factory. especially the shiny metal. but i'm more interested in why it is there from a story telling perspective? does it fit any narrative or is it just there because you want to add as much stuff to the scene as possible?
