Reunited in spirit.
Trying to make ghosts for the first time, I did see a different tutorial from the one I used which I'll try one of these days, think it used a mirror somehow to make a ghost. The idea of this render is two lovers being reunited in death.

Well achieved atmosphere! The only thing I'm not so fond of is the uniformness of the fog everywhere. Then again, Bryce doesn't provide much of a control over it so.. postwork might be a solution to a more smoky random shapes here and there. Try searching for some smoke-shaped brushes if you work with Photoshop. Nevertheless this is a pleasing image with great concept.
. Thanks Trish, glad you like it, this one was fun to do!
This one is wonderful Jo!!
. Thanks so much guys! I'm a tad browned off with myself though, I'd done another render with an extra gravestone and a bit more fog but somehow managed to delete it and frankly was too lazy to redo it again!
The huge moon and the ruin at left nicely support your story. It is fantasy, "outherworldly", a world the spirits may wander. The graveyard look wouldn't have been necessary but it is certainly not amiss. It gives the scene a bit of sadness. If we imagine meeting beloved after dead, we would not necessarily want to be reminded that we're dead. The fog on the ground is great, something I have never actually got right. A tad more mist to make it more dreamy/spiritual, perhaps. Trees and brushes are excellent models, by the way. Pity they are not lit brighter - but that would have spoiled everything, of course. A beautiful idea and very nicely done. It conveys some sort of hope for the life afterwards.
Wow! Double Wow! This is just amzing JoAJ. The atmospheric work is outstanding. The vegetation looks very natural. I love the ligting. This is exquisite! A touch of doom and gloom coveed by a sense of hope and love, as these ghosts get in some quality time. Very nice!
