I’ve just published a tutorial that teaches you how to easily create a cloudscape that is perfect for any outdoor scene.

During the tutorial you will learn:

  • How to model a cloud
  • The correct materials to apply
  • An easy two point lighting setup
  • How to use multiple displacement modifiers for fluffier clouds

I’ve made the tutorial text and picture based because I know some people like to skip past the parts they already know :P

      He he. I like the small picture of you in the bottom left. Gives it a much more personal feel…just like what we’re used to with Blender

      Cool and to think I’m only about 100km away from Brisbane airport.

      Am I missing something, or is there no way to make these (excellent) tutorials downloadable?

    • blabeen

      Thanx Andrew … very useful Tut

      @Konstanty
      There is .. but this could violate Andrew’s rights.

      That is so cool Andrew Price,
      You are the blender user.
      Too cool to be true.

      what I wonder is how he gets the volumetrics to look so fine/solid/smooth. whenever i use volumetrics, it looks all grainy and nasty. but nice work :)

      Unfortunately it doesn’t look much like the real clouds and the end of the vid.

      @Konstanty
      You are free to download the vids! I don’t mind :)
      When you log in to Vimeo you should see a download link on the right hand side.
