Wast Water Blender Render #1 (April 2016)

How Wast Water would look if it were an alien world with no colour!

 

I said I would try to work Blender out.... Blender is hard! It is also probably too much for my ageing PC. Many thanks to:

For his tutorial on hill shading in Blender - from which I managed to bring in the NASA DEM data and a lake shapefile. After much trial and error with the camera (hard) and a few other things I managed to produce this... whether it was worth it or not is debatable but as its raining I can't mow the lawns, so go to be doing something! For relatively low resolution data, at least it is a recognisable place.

 

I intend to (try) and build up my skill set on this and use this image as a basis for building something altogether more realistic. Luckily there are few photos of this scene around to work out some inspiration! Got to start somewhere.
