Toothpick134: Are we allowed to create the snow in Photoshop by using the noise tool? ( 5 years and 3294 days ago )

Contest Moderator: Unfortunately not toothpick, unless of course you plan to apply the snow to geometry with an opacity map. Looks like a good time to have some fun with particle systems

Hope everyone likes it. Took ages to get it looking OK. Who would have thought it would take that much effort to make a snow globe. (5 years and 3292 days ago)

Each time I did a render it took 3 hours, the final render took 4 hours. I think it's all the glass and reflections, plus I have a water sphere inside the glass sphere which is refracting the refractions of the glass so I guess it gets a little complex.

In this scene the snowglobe is in a glass display cabinet. I was going for realism here and hope I did it well enough, its a huge image, A4 international paper size 300dpi. (5 years and 3291 days ago)
