Making of Rhodos by emmerdesign

Hello to all of you and welcome to my making of Rhodos. In this making of I will show you my way of working and I will tell you something about the progress and some techniques that I used for the image. I created the image with 3dsmax, Vray and photoshop. I hope that it will be useful to you.

Introduction

Last summer I was with a friend of mine on a holiday on the island Rhodos, Greece. I was never been there before and I must say, it’s a beautiful island. Great nature and of course typical Greece architecture. No matter where I am, I am always looking around me to absurd everything I see. It’s a non stop progress. Do I see something what I can use for any project at home? And at some point in my vacation there it was. A nice building on top of a hill. It was not only the building but the environment and the lighting that inspired me. I liked it, maybe you don’t but that’s okay. So at that point I decided to take pictures of the building so I could study them at home. Normally I always do a lot of research on the Internet but now I had already the pictures I needed so I could skip that part.

Modeling

So back home I started the modeling process. I started with a very simple basic setup so I could determine where I could put my camera view. It was my intention to render a scene that was similar to the photographs so the camera view was very important.
