Venus resting slightly above the rooftop.

playing with cycles materials and lighting.

Some more Blender renders using the cycles engine. Getting a feel for textures, materials, and lighting.

This is a render using the new Cycles Engine. This is done using an exposure of .44 with 600 samples. Notice the artifacts and noise present. I am currently trying to figure out how to get rid of that. On the upside the outcome of the render is much more realistic. Especially in regards to lighting and reflections.

Another render, practicing compositing.
