Really nice renders Sean! With this I can imagine rover visits to each of these places. Would be interesting to see where you are in Noctis Labyrinthus relative to the context say from some Viking images that I recall.

How much vertical exaggeration is there in your renderings?

None. This is straight from the DTM.

Indeed glad you are faithful to the terrain - and besides vertical exaggeration wouldn't be needed anyway!
One thing that might be worth a try sometime is the inclusion of scattering by atmospheric dust, depending on how much in the way of the optical parameters can be included in the rendering software. -------------------- Steve [ my home page and planetary maps page ]

Its on my list Steve, this initial splurge was spent optimizing the workflow. I managed to shave a few hours off!

QUOTE (Sean @ Jan 6 2017, 01:08 PM)  last two for this batch... Wow, amazing razerback ridges emerging from the dunes. Anybody else reminded of a voice over from Ricardo Montalban "these are the last indigenous residents of Ceti Alpha 5...." |

QUOTE (Sean @ Jan 5 2017, 08:40 PM) Uzobi Vallis It's Uzboi - I know that place.  I'm used to looking at a lot of HiRISE images, and with that perspective, the first one in colour looks spectacular (and they are all quite informative - something to keep in the back of my mind the next time I look at related 2D images). -------------------- |
