This is pure hotness along with all the work on your site. Your work and skill level are very inspiring.

[Froyok]

Very beautiful work !
I like very much the colors ! =)

Just a little problem : the last image don't load fully, I don't know why, I try to erase my web cache, refresh the picture. D'ont work, I see only the first 5% of the picture in lighting-only mode.

[Piranhi]

Very very nice, great work.

WeGame is an awesome tool! If HD is giving you too much lag, select the lower quality version. This one still looks great though (here's a video that has been recorded with WeGame on lowest quality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_lqt6lWuiM)

EDIT: amazing work, by the way. Any chance it will be playable?

Fraps...only way to go for video capture. It's definately worth the buy also ...its cheap and captures uncompressed video with sound. I use it at work and at home. I've never had framerate issues with it.

[McTavish]

This is breathtaking, totally takes you in, the way the birds are looking off stage makes you instantly imagine what might be happening to grab there attention, I LOVE the colours

great work ! perhaps best ive seen on the boards

Hi Baolong :D

It's absolutely fantastic as usual.

[marcusmattingly]

Wow, that's simply incredible!

[Froyok]

Hmm, how long you did you take to realize this scene?

[mafiadude1]

Gorgeous, spectacular, epic, stunning, breath-taking, colossal, unique, exquisite...nope, still not enough words to explain how absolutely spectacularly epic, stunningly breath-taking, gorgeously uniquely exquisite your work is. i mean all of them not just the one on this thread.

GREAT JOB! :D

[Baolong Zhang]

Hi guys ,thank you so much.

and I will try capture some video soon.
and I did this in my spare time, I guess around 1 month,everyday around 2 hours.
thanks again :)

[Drevlin]

Really nice stuff

[junkens]

I just LOVE that style. It looks somehow like it's painted but on the over hand like good 3d too.
AWESOME WORK!

[nki]

Now some Tiger & Dragon like battles in this level would be awesome ;)

[SageHunter]

Awesome. Just awesome.
I love the colorful work you got.

[thelaw]

The scenes look amazing, beautiful work. Just have a couple of questions on how you created the scene.
1. Are the foliage speed tree actors.
2. How did you get the reflection to work?
3. I've looked at your blog and love the city street level. I've always wondered how to get a scene to not look to perfect e.g. dirt textures, do you paint the textures before-hand or do you use decals?
4. What are the frame rates like and what kind of hardware are you running it on

Perhaps if you have some spare time you could do a tutorial on how to get a scene to look as good.

[DELTATHUND3R]

Boa your works are amazing matey..Love this piece but some of ya other work is just so dam awsome..
Congrats on such dedication and talent matey..
ya birds rock...

[danimal']

It's ok... if you like things that are awesome :) Your use of lighting and color are what sets it apart for me. Pretty much gorgeous.

[gnyoda]

Keep up the good work. Really nice collection of work on your blog, also.

[Aabra]

Very very good work man. That's truly awesome. How much of that is bsp versus static meshes?

[creasso]

Amazing work! Really Impressive!

[Winwarproductions]

Cool stuff. Some of the best I've seen on here. Keep up the great work. Good luck with your game development process if you decide to make a game from your scenes. It would be very cool to play.

[Baolong Zhang]

Thanks guys,

answer some question here

I haven't use any SpeedTree model, all model created in Maya, only some area is Terrain in Unreal where have small grass.

FrameRate is not very high as I have an 4 years old PC.

and about dirty texture, i use some different function for that, decal layer is the most easy way to do, also belending 2 or 3 Textures, will give perfect result.

Thank you again :) have a good day !

[iniside]

So cool. Want to see movie of it!

[Contrails]

Scene looks amazing :) great atmopshere



2. How did you get the reflection to work?

Gonna throw this in... I've found this to be a pretty good tutorial on this subject: http://www.chrisalbeluhn.com/UT3_Water_Reflection_Tutorial.html
but of course there are other ways (especially for non-realtime) of doing it

and a question of my own - how'd you create the glass/flowers?

[thelaw]

Thanks for the reply, I would also like to know how you did the flowers, they look very realistic.

[looprix]

Wow everything looks great! Your rocks and stone surfaces are very believable.
