Another lighting playtest. I wanted to see how well I could work with lower exposures and reflective surfaces, so I made this homage to a classic movie I recently re-watched. Positioning the building to bounce off the shades was an absolute nightmare, but it worked out well enough in the end.

I purposefully made the render sampling quite low to make the image more noisy, to give it that film grain look. :D

Only way that I found to actually light the cavern was to duplicate the water layer and turn it into a ghost light.otherwise everything in shadow would be pitch black. Got the added bonus of a teal and orange effect.

Well spotted on the "weird shine"(y). I was happy with the original but then started messing around with AI enhancement and started to question myself. The focal point is centered on her face but fairly shallow dof, from about left hand to back of head iirc. Only rendered at Sub 2, I've used a god ray box but that's behind the model so shouldn't really have an impact. I'll check it out before I do the final render at sub 3, cheers
That remind me of the AI enhancement test 8 did a few weeks ago. Where I use let enhance to to enhance and Denoise to test renders. I want to hear Yours and everyone opinion on it. test_render2_by_ludedwolf_dfbrrz1-pre.jpg test_render2_digital_art_x4_colored_toned_light_ai_by_ludedwolf_dfbrryy-pre.jpg test_render_by_ludedwolf_dfbrryn-pre.jpg test_render_digital_art_x4_colored_toned_light_ai_by_ludedwolf_dfbrrz4-pre.jpg
