Far canyon

[Xpleet]

Yet another simple render done in Vue.

About the terrain:

I was playing around with different type of erosions that got me a rough structure, flows at the mountains, i heavily smoothed out flat areas using angle selectors, added 4 Terraces.

Combinating is phun :D

Mein Gott! That's great man. Really realistic. Can you explain more about how you did it?

That looks awesome.

Thanx for the comments, it is really appreciated.

The atmosphere in this is probably the best part in this. I created it more or less by randomness.

I just wanted to make a test render for this experimental GC² terrain that I made.

The textures are not as complicated as they seem. Vue is brought with 2 standard Canyon textures which are pretty high def.
For this one i just picked the "canyon" material and applied it to the whole terrain.

Now here is something that is pretty nice. Cajomi probably knows it aswell.

In Vue you can increase the terrain detail by FAKE. I enhanced the terrain with a fractal procedural bumpmap that is only visible in the foreground on the ground.

The terrain size of 4096 would really make it look nasty if we'd zoom in, but thanks to the fractal enhancement I've applied to the terrain it will gain further detail.

However I assure that from this view you can see a 100% GC² terrain, as I said the enhancements only come in to view when zooming in really close where the 4096 resolution terrain runs out of detail.
