HL2 Recreation

[EC]

Here is my first real piece of rendering work that I tried. I took the idea from a (much better) past one, and wanted to try it myself.

http://www.portuese.org/ec/hl2-sand.zip there is the large jpg, and the attached image is ultra-compressed.

looking good (judging from the attachment)

You might want to change the lambda sign a bit to be a bit more accurate with the tail thing, just look at a referance pic to see what I mean.

have you got the original for comparison you could show us? I remember seeing it but not well enough to remember it properly :\


Edit: btw the zip file is corrupt, something is up with it.

Yeah, here's the original one.

And I'll re-upload the zip. For some reason, my upload likes to screw up files. http://www.portuese.org/ec/hl2-sand.zip
Obviously, mine's nowhere near as good as that one, but at least I can say I tried.

Cheers, yep now I remember it properly, ta.

Throw in some DOF, more detail on the texture, displacement map, add some grain to the final image. Work some more on the lighting, should be easy enough to do a better image then.
