Description
Another new one done last week in Vue and with photoshop for postwork.
When I started this it was just a doodle and I didn't like it much, but I rendered it anyway. Then I started working on it in photoshop and four hours later I started to like it better. I wasn't intending this to be my next post here, but I think it's fresh and full of hope... and not too reliant on the excellent capacity of Vue for easy on the eye landscapes.
Thanks for looking - much appreciated.

Beautiful, well done.
Superb love everything about it...
absolute great retro flair!
Just like a scene from the classic "African Queen", except this fine steamer is a bit bigger ! Great lighting & ~Cheers~
Now this one is a real challenge for the dynamic speculator!! It doesn't have sails set and is long before the first use of gyro stabilizers in the twenties yet the mastis absolutely vertical and the deck plane in water that clearly is while not quite a light chop still moving. It isn't a river. The paddle wheels of course don't like it when the ship rolls and puts more strain on one than the other so there is plenty of motivation to avoid normal ship motion. There is a certain Prussian discipline to how it all comes out.
fantastic work :)
nice scene with excellent water and waves
Beautifully done render, looks just like a photo. The water looks really good :)
There's a big river 40 yards from my front door. Sometimes there's just a ripple on the surface, sometimes it looks like this, depending on the water coming off the hills. I even use it to produce water textures of various kinds and nature. It's a good idea here to take into account the sharpness and angle of light. It's a clue to the possibility of the structure of the scene being more open than is at first apparent. I intended this to give the impression of the beginning of an adventure... more of a coastal estuary kind of feel... the travelers heading off into the heart of darkness, kind of thing. Thanks for all the comments!

This is nice ! I like this old steamboat in the tropical environment. It reminds me of the old film with Humphrey Bogart " African Queen " . Well done !
Gorgeous old Paddlewheeler!!! Excellent work!!
Reading your earlier comments and description of your fantastic render, this gives me a feeling; especially the foliage, of early 20th century visitors beginning their journey thru the Panama Canal Zone. There is much to look at and appreciate with this one.
Wowwwwwwwwww!! Superb work!
