Earth by Jean Paul El Hachem

The Visuals illustrates our competition entry for a Chapel in Ruwanda, Africa.

Within the dense forest of conifers, a lonely narrow gap reveals a tiny section of blue sky, at the very limit of the hilltop.
There, in that forgotten space sits the new chapel, looking towards the rising sun of the east, and facing only the unique landscape.
The chapel illustrates a protected space, a sanctuary of nature, sacred, enchanted with trees, plants and ivies.

Container Home by Adrian Parkinson

/in , /by

For this project, I decided to depict a very industrial looking container home in a very natural scene. I tried a number of new tools to create the environment. The first were the 3D scanned rocks by Adrian Kubasa, which will be available here: https://www.eisklotz.com/products/models/nature-scans-for-blender/
The second was the Scatter addon by BD3D.

The scanned rocks are very high-quality, with good UVs, and even their own asset manager to easily add them into your scenes. I’ll definitely be using them on all future nature scenes.
The Scatter addon was ideal for well, scattering. I used it for all the ground plants as well as the rocks. So far, it’s the closest equivalent to Forest Pack I’ve seen for Blender. It makes setting up scenes like this much easier.
For textures, I used Poliigon for the majority. The containers were textured using Substance Painter.
