A beautiful scene from 17th century Holland.

A couple of months ago I posted my latest work, most of it is related from the Golden Age experience project where i'm working on. Some work is from my latest e-book about 3D environments.

This year I started to convert the complete project to a game engine and I only use Blender as a modeling tool, for the moment. No more render times !!

But I still love the Cycles render engine and last month some people asked me to create a book cover for a new historical book release. I love these kind of jobs so I put all my passion and inspiration in this latest work.

I tried to avoid the compositor because I am not a big fan of it. What you see is what you get, thats why I love cycles. I used a bit of mist in the scene and I changed some of the colors. the final resolution is more vertical like this (fake title) scene is from the city Enkhuizen in the 17th century based on old map and image reconstruction. I used cadastral maps so most of al the buildings are on the right spot.
